The improvements to a network flow approach to reconstruction of the vascular cross sections from two orthogonal projections.
It is computationally very convenient to view the problem of reconstructing a binary cross section of the coronary arteries from two projections as a flow problem in a capacitated network. The network approach is introduced. In order to speed up this approach some improvements are presented. The improved algorithm is demonstrated by reconstructing several test patterns.
