BifDet: A 3D Bifurcation Detection Dataset for Airway-Tree Modeling

arXiv:2604.24999v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Thoracic Computed Tomography (CT) scans offer detailed insights into the intricate branching network of the airway tree, which is essential for understanding various respiratory diseases. Airway bifurcations, where airway branches split, are crucial landmarks for understanding lung physiology, disease mechanisms and lesion localization. Despite the significance of bifurcation analysis, a notable lack of datasets annotated for this task hinders th
