US Patent 11344273 Methods and systems for extracting blood vessel

Methods and systems for determining a region of interest (ROI) in an image associated with a subject are provided. Slice information of multiple slices of an image are identified and multiple slice ranges are determined based on the slice information. Based on the slice ranges, multiple sub-images of the image are then determined. For each sub-image, a template and a corresponding probability graph are acquired, a registration result is determined by registering the sub-image with the template, and a ROI in the sub-image is identified based on the registration result. A ROI of the image can be determined by combining the ROIs of the sub-images.
