Original Abstract Submitted
The present disclosure provides to generate a 3D visualization of a vessel from intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) images. In particular, the present disclosure provides to reduce jitter between frames of an IVUS recording to provide a smoother appearance of a longitudinal view of the vessel from the IVUS image frames and to construct a 3D visualization of the vessel from the jitter compensated IVUS image frames.
