Automated segmentation of metal and BVS stent struts from OCT images using U-Net

Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) is an effective treatment for coronary artery diseases. PCI treatment is usually carried out with stent implantation to provide structural support to balloon dilated blood vessel, reducing risk of re-narrowing. Intravascular Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT)...
