Patient oriented and robust automatic liver segmentation for pre-evaluation of liver transplantation
2008
Computers in Biology and Medicine
Identifying liver region from abdominal computed tomography-angiography (CTA) data sets is one of the essential steps in evaluation of transplantation donors prior to the hepatic surgery. However, due to gray level similarity of adjacent organs, injection of contrast media and partial volume effects; robust segmentation of the liver is a very difficult task. Moreover, high variations in liver margins, different image characteristics with different CT scanners and atypical liver shapes make the
