Abstract:
A method for the quantification of the size of liver metastases based on stereologic principles is presented. This evaluation procedure was applied retrospectively to routine computerized tomography (CT) scans of the liver and allowed reliable estimation of the volume of liver metastases. Furthermore, the data were used to create three-dimensional (3D) representations of the examined organ by computer reconstruction.
