Abstract
Methods and systems for manually assisted definition of vascular features are described. In some embodiments, a method provides for editing of vascular paths by enabling a user to drag an erroneously segmented region of a selected vascular path into alignment with a more correctly segmented position that is depicted as a blood vessel in a vascular image. The method may use an energy function, defined as a function of position along the segmentation of the selected blood vessel, to determine how a vascular path is to be moved based on dragging motions provided by the user. In some instances, non-zero regions of the energy function are set based on the position of the selected region.
