Fractal dimension is often used in oncology in order to quantify the capability of a tumor to grow. We&#8217;re trying to correlate fractal dimensions to degree of growth of new capillaries in response of an occlusion. This challenge include the capability to stitch xray cineangiography in order to build a wide-field angiography. Another interesting task is the accurate segmentation of capillaries from low contrast reconstructed xray angiography.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img data-attachment-id=\"129\"
