    Area of Science:

    • Medical Imaging
    • Computer-Aided Diagnosis
    • Abdominal Organ Analysis

    Background:

    • Current visual inspection of CT scans for liver integrity is limited by image complexity and size.
    • Accurate liver assessment is crucial for diagnosing various abdominal and pelvic injuries and illnesses.
    • Limited access to skilled radiologists can hinder timely and reliable liver health evaluation.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop an automated liver segmentation method using CT scans.
    • To enhance the accuracy and speed of liver health assessment.
    • To provide a reliable tool for liver analysis in resource-limited settings.

    Main Methods:

    • A hierarchical method utilizing probabilistic models of voxel position and intensity.
    • Automated segmentation of the liver from computed tomography (CT) images.
    • Quantitative assessment of segmentation performance using the Dice similarity coefficient.

    Main Results:

    • The proposed method achieved a Dice similarity coefficient exceeding 89% for liver segmentation.
    • Demonstrated high accuracy in automatically segmenting liver structures in CT scans.
    • The approach offers a quantitative and fast alternative to visual inspection.

    Conclusions:

    • Automated liver segmentation via probabilistic models provides a reliable and efficient method for assessing liver health.
    • This computer-aided image analysis technique can significantly aid in diagnosing liver conditions.
    • The method shows promise for improving diagnostic capabilities in environments with limited access to expert radiologists.
