Closeup rendering of the foreground segmentation of the arterial vessel network in Kidney 2 overlayed with the nodes and centerlines of the vessel network. As can be seen, there are no spurious branches, even at larger radius vessels, and small radius vessels are preserved thanks to the dimensionless pruning criterium (bulge size). For the start of even finer, capillary vessels that are not included, but are visible as small humps in the foreground segmentation, no branches in the vessel tree are generated since a relatively large bulge size of 3 was selected
