Abstract
A computer-implemented method comprising: receiving a 3D image including an object depicted in the image, the 3D image comprising an ordered set of 2D images; determining a contour around the object in a first of said 2D images; and determining a contour around the object in a second of said 2D images, the second 2D image being non-contiguous with the first in said ordered set, having an intermediate region comprising one or more intermediate ones of said 2D images between the first and second 2D images within said ordered set. In each of the first and second 2D images, inside of the contour is classified as foreground and outside of the contour is classified as background. The method further comprises performing a 3D geodesic distance computation to classify points in the intermediate region as foreground of background.
