1. A method of providing real-time marker detection in medical imaging of a stent, the method comprising: obtaining a plurality of frames of image data; determining a plurality of candidate markers for the stent in the plurality of frames of image data; and detecting, by a processor, one or more first markers for the stent from the plurality of candidate markers, the detecting being based on automatic initialization using a subset of frames of image data from the plurality of frames of image data, wherein the automatic initialization comprises applying an algorithm to the subset of frames of image data and determining a path through the subset of frames of image data based on the applying, detecting performed in real-time with the obtaining.
