Segmentation of Juxtapleural Pulmonary Nodules Using a Robust Surface Estimate

Table 2

Nodule segmentation results comparing the surface-fitting method described in this paper with a previously published method using a plane-cutting approach.

Method	Nodules segmented	Percent segmented
Surface fitting	147	98.0%
Reeves et al. [5]	122	81.3%
Total number of nodules	150
