In this article, we propose a new segmentation model including geometric constraints, namely interpolation conditions, to detect objects in a given image sequence. We propose to apply the deformable models to an explicit function to avoid the problem of parameterization (see Gout, C. and Vieira-Teste, S. (2003). An algorithm for segmentation under interpolation conditions using deformable models. Int. J. Comput. Math., 80(1), 47-54.). A problem of energy minimization on a closed subspace of a Hilbert space is defined, and introducing Lagrange multipliers enables us to formulate the corresponding variational problem with interpolation conditions. We apply this method in order to ouline the cross-sectional area (CSA) of a great thoracic vessel, namely the main pulmonary artery, in order to non-invasively assess pulmonary arterial hypertension (see Laffon, E., Vallet, C., Bernard, V., Montaudon, M., Ducassou, D., Laurent, F. and Marthan, R.
