Background,Motivation and Objective Many computer applications have been proposed to segment the carotid artery wall in ultrasound images and produce automated measurement of the intima-media thickness(IMT),one of the most widely used risk indicator of cardiovascular disease.Automatic IMT measurement is a challenging problem due to high levels of reverberation noise,and negative contrast ratio between the signal reflected at the intima-lumen(IL) interface and the reflection at the adventia-media(AM) interface.
