Abstract
A method for processing a cardiovascular image for detection of cardiovascular lesions is provided, which is performed by one or more processors of a computing device. The method includes receiving a cardiovascular image, acquiring a first image mask corresponding to at least a part of blood vessels included in the cardiovascular image, acquiring a centerline image mask corresponding to centerlines of at least the part of blood vessels included in the cardiovascular image, extracting a first image patch from the cardiovascular image, extracting a second image patch from the centerline image mask, generating a refined third image patch by performing, based on the first image patch and the second image patch, a local refinement, and generating, based on the refined third image patch and the first image mask, a refined second image mask.
