    Area of Science:

    • Medical Image Processing
    • Computational Anatomy

    Background:

    • Liver segmentation in CT images is complex due to anatomical variations, low contrast, and pathologies.
    • Accurate liver segmentation is crucial for diagnosis and treatment planning.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop and validate an automated method for segmenting livers in CT images.
    • To address the challenges of anatomical complexity and low contrast in liver segmentation.

    Main Methods:

    • A three-step framework: preprocessing (statistical shape model, anisotropic diffusion filtering), initialization (thresholding, Euclidean distance transformation, mesh deformation), and segmentation (deformable graph cut).
    • Utilized principal component analysis for shape model construction and deformable graph cut for accurate surface detection.

    Main Results:

    • The proposed automated method demonstrated effectiveness and accuracy in segmenting liver surfaces.
    • Evaluation on 50 CT scans from Sliver07 and 3Dircadb databases confirmed the method's performance.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed automated liver segmentation method is accurate and effective for CT images.
    • This approach offers a robust solution for a challenging task in medical image analysis.
