Segmenting Parts of the Cerbellum

Using 7T MRI data it is nowadays possible to segment even small parts of the cerebellum like lobuli or nuclei.

Segmentation of the Liver

A still unsolved, yet clinically relevant problem ist the segmentation of the liver. Visualizing the liver and its main vessel systems is a valuable tool for planning liver surgery like resections or transplants.
Our algorithm ranked high in all rounds of the MICCAI Grand Challenge 2007.

Angiography

Visualization of vessels.

CT-Angiography (2d)

• Precise measurement of relative vessel diameters

MRI-Angiography (3d)

• 3D-Visualization of vessels
• Measurements of lengths of curved vessels in 3D images.

Thrombogenesis

For the requirements of the Institut für Hämostaseologie und Transfusionsmedizin we deliver visualization techniques for 3D time sequences ("4D data").

Virtual coloscopy

This project was completed as a PhD thesis and is now available commercially as a certified medical product (ColoTux) for virtual ultra low dose coloscopy.
The project was awarded the 2nd Invention Award at the Deutschen Röntgenkongress 2003.

Segmentation and Visualization of the Cerebellum

We support a project of the group of Prof. Dr. D. Timmann-Braun, Klinik für Neurologie, Essen with specialized segmentation tools.

Magnetic Encephalography

We support the group of Univ.-Prof. Dr. Alfons Schnitzler, Neurologische Klinik des Universitätsklinikums Düsseldorf with the visualization of MEG datasets.
