This is an experimental plugin, and I have doubts about its correctness—in particular, the results are strange when the ratio of pixelWidth : pixelHeight : pixelDepth is other than 1:1:1. In addition, the results in any case seem to be different from those from other implementations, such as this [MATLAB](MATLAB) one. I don”t have time to work on this any more (and no longer work in academia at all) so if someone were interested in taking it over, that would be brilliant. |

This plugin implements the algorithm for detection of vessel- or tube-like structures in 2D and 3D images described Frangi et al 1998. [1]
In my experience, this method produces consistently better results than the Tubeness plugin for isotropic image data, although it is significantly slower.
These screenshots show the results on an example file:
