Curve-thinning is a frequently applied technique to obtain centerlines from volumetric binary objects. Conventional curve-thinning algorithms preserve endpoints to provide important geometric information relative to the objects. An alternative strategy is also proposed that accumulates isthmuses (i.e., generalization of curve interior points as elements of the centerlines). This paper presents a computationally efficient sequential isthmus-based 3D curve-thinning algorithm.
