frangifilter

Syntax: frangifilter(input image, output image, spatial sigma, output scale, c, gamma, alpha, beta)

Calculates line-enhancing filter Vo according to Frangi - Multiscale vessel enhancement filtering.

This command can be used in the distributed processing mode. Use distribute command to change processing mode from local to distributed.

Arguments

input image [input]

Data type: uint8 image, uint16 image, uint32 image, uint64 image, int8 image, int16 image, int32 image, int64 image, float32 image

Input image.

output image [output]

Data type: uint8 image, uint16 image, uint32 image, uint64 image, int8 image, int16 image, int32 image, int64 image, float32 image

Output image.

spatial sigma [input]

Data type: real

Standard deviation of Gaussian kernel, determines scale of structures that are probed.

output scale [input]

Data type: real

Default value: 0

Output values are scaled by this number. Pass in zero to scale output value 1 to maximum of the data type for integer data types and to 1 for floating point data types.

c [input]

Data type: real

Default value: 0.25

Sensitivity of the filter to deviation from background noise. Typical value is quarter of the value of the maximum intensity of the lines.

gamma [input]

Data type: real

Default value: 0

Scale-space scaling exponent. Set to zero to disable scaling.

alpha [input]

Data type: real

Default value: 0.5

Sensitivity of the filter to deviation from plate-like structures.

beta [input]

Data type: real

Default value: 0.5

Sensitivity of the filter to deviation from blob-like structures.
