Summary: Model-based approaches towards the segmentation of vascular and cardiac images are presented. For vessel segmentation, prior shape information is introduced based on the notion that vessels are elongated structures. For cardiac segmentation, shape information derived from a training set of segmented images is incorporated in an automatically constructed point distribution model of the heart.
