Segmentation of the liver is an important prerequisite in liver surgery planning. One of the major challenges in building a 3D shape model from a training set of segmented instances of an object is the determination of the correspondence between different surfaces. We propose to use a geometric approach that is based on minimizing the distortion of the correspondence mapping between two different surfaces. For the adaption of the shape model to the image data a profile model based on the grey value appearance of the liver and its surrounding tissues in contrast enhanced CT data was developed. The robustness of this method results from a previous nonlinear diffusion filtering of the image data. Special focus is turned to the quantitative evaluation of the segmentation process. Several different error measures are discussed and implemented in a study involving more than 30 livers.}, language = {en} } @misc{StallingSeebassZoeckleretal., author = {Stalling, Detlev and Seebass, Martin and Z{\"o}ckler, Malte and Hege, Hans-Christian}, title = {Hyperthermia Treatment Planning with HyperPlan - User's Manual}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:0297-zib-5957}, number = {00-27}, abstract = {HyperPlan is a software system for performing 3D-simulations and treatment planning in regional hyperthermia.

HyperPlan is built on top of the modular, object-oriented visualization system Amira. This system already contains powerful algorithms for image processing, geometric modelling and 3D graphics display. HyperPlan provides a number of hyperthermia-specific modules, allowing the user to create 3D tetrahedral patient models suitable for treatment planning. In addition, all numerical simulation modules required for hyperthermia simulation are part of HyperPlan. This guide provides a step-by-step introduction to hyperthermia planning using HyperPlan. It also describes the usage of the underlying visualization system Amira.}, language = {en} }
