Abstract
On the basis of user input a set of contour points of a 3D object is detected in a number of 2D slice images representing the 3D object. Next a 2D object is segmented in each of the slice images by the set of contour points so as to obtain segmentation masks. Finally, by interpolation between computed segmentation masks, the 3D object is segmented.
