Snapshots of critical steps in 3D reconstruction of a patient-specific AAA with SG model. (a) Lumen segmentation; (b) geometry interpolation; (c) surface spline fitting; (d) selected reconstructed SG features and the corresponding in-plane CT slice in the region of interest; and (e) finite element meshing for CFD analysis.
