RVXLiverSegmentation is a 3D Slicer (Kikinis et al., 2014(Kikinis et al., , 2022 plug-in aiming at speedingup the annotation of liver anatomy from medical images (CT -Computerized Tomographyscans or MRI -Magnetic Resonance Imaging-for instance). This organ has particular anatomy and physiology; within its parenchymal volume, the liver receives blood from the portal vein and hepatic artery (the former one being the most visible in medical images), and delivers filtered blood through the hepatic veins, toward inferior vena cava. The blood vessels subdivide into the liver as fine vascular tree structures, which makes the segmentation difficult, especially in the case of MRI. To facilitate this task, our plug-in is decomposed into modules dedicated to the segmentation of the liver volume, inner vessels and possible tumors. RVXLiverSegmentation can be downloaded from (Pelletier et al., 2022) or installed from the 3D Slicer software as an official module.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
