摘要：
A method and system for detecting and tracking coronary sinus (CS) catheter electrodes in a fluoroscopic image sequence is disclosed. An electrode model is initialized in a first frame of the fluoroscopic image sequence based on input locations of CS sinus catheter electrodes in the first frame. The electrode model is tracked in subsequent frames of the fluoroscopic image sequence by detecting electrode position candidates in the subsequent frames of the fluoroscopic image sequence using at least one trained electrode detector, generating electrode model candidates in the subsequent frames based on the detected electrode position candidates, calculating a probability score for each of the electrode model candidates, and selecting an electrode model candidate based on the probability score.
