Abstract:
A method and system is provided for image segmentation for liver objects. Segmentation is performed to obtain a first set of objects relating to liver. More than one types in association with one of the first set of objects are identified. Landmarks are identified based on the segmented first set of objects or the different types of one of the first set of objects. A second set of objects including liver lobes are segmented based on the landmarks.
