摘要:A system and method are provided for segmentation of an anatomical structurein which a user may interactively specify a limited set of boundary points of the
anatomical structure in a view of a medical image. The set of boundary points may, on itsown, be considered an insufficient segmentation of the anatomical structure in themedical image, but is rather used to select a segmentation model from a plurality ofdifferent segmentation models. The selection is based on a goodness-of-fit measurebetween the boundary points and each of the segmentation models. For example, a best-fitting model may be selected and used for segmentation of the anatomical structure. Itis therefore not needed for the user to delineate the entire anatomical structure, whichwould be time consuming and ultimately error prone, nor is it needed for a segmentationalgorithm to autonomously have to select a segmentation model, which may yield anerroneous selection.
