Abstract
Accurate and efficient segmentation of coronary arteries from CTA images is crucial for diagnosing and treating cardiovascular diseases. This study proposes a structured approach that combines vesselness enhancement, heart region of interest (ROI) extraction, and the ResUNet deep learning method to accurately and efficiently extract coronary artery vessels. Vesselness enhancement and heart ROI extraction significantly improve the accuracy and efficiency of the segmentation process, while ResUNet enables the model to capture both local and global features. The proposed method outperformed other state-of-the-art methods, achieving a Dice similarity coefficient (DSC) of 0.867, a Recall of 0.881, and a Precision of 0.892. The exceptional results for segmenting coronary arteries from CTA images demonstrate the potential of this method to significantly contribute to accurate diagnosis and effective treatment of cardiovascular diseases.
