International audience. An algorithm is proposed that perform a temporal tracking of the vessel central axis in a 3-D dynamic sequence in multi-slice computed tomography (MSCT). The approach is based on geometric moments and a local cylindrical approximation. The local characteristics of the vessel are estimated on the first volume of the sequence (position on the vessel central axis, local diameter, intravascular and background intensities), then used to track the vessel along the sequence. The correspondence between two volumes is solved through a region matching based on a criterion of minimal distance combining moment-based descriptors with intensity information. Preliminary results are presented on two sequences.
