Bifurcation detection on synthetic (A) and MRA TOF (B) test datasets using DeepVesselNet-FCN (bifurcations in green). Similar to centerline prediction, bifurcation detections in smaller vessels are better than in bigger vessels which might be due to the network seeing more examples in smaller vessels than in bigger vessels during training. At regions where a lot of vessels intersect, the network predicts it as a big bifurcation, this can be seen in the circled regions in zoomed images (a–c).
