A method and apparatus for performing a four-dimensional image reconstruction. The apparatus can be configured to receive a first input to slice a stack of two-dimensional images that depicts an object of interest into one or more planes to form one or more virtual images and receive a second input to segment the virtual images. One or more seed points can be generated on the virtual images based on the second input and to automatically order the seed points using a magnetic linking method. Contours corresponding to the object of interest can be generated using a live-wire algorithm and perform a first three-dimensional construction of the object of interest based on the contours. The contours can be converted into seed points for a subsequent set of images and perform a second three-dimensional construction of the object of interest corresponding to the subsequent set of images.
