Automatic Liver Segmentation on Volumetric CT Images Using Supervoxel-Based Graph Cuts

Figure 6

An example of liver segmentation using the proposed method. (a) and (b) show the 3D abdominal region extraction. (c) The selected largest liver slice with initial liver region in blue contour and background regions in red contours. From (c) to (f), orange rectangles show the liver VOI. (d) and (e) show the heart and kidney slices, respectively, with additional background regions in red contours. (f) The segmented result after postprocessing in yellow contour. (g) The reconstructed 3D liver volume.
