Abstract
Method and processes for segmentation of lungs lobes from CT image data are disclosed. Lobe segmentation relies on other segmentations, including the lungs, the lung airways and vasculature. Segmentation methods and processes begin with the acquisition of 3-D image data such as from a high resolution CT scan of a patient's lungs or at least a region thereof. The image is then processed to provide a segmentation mask from which the components are extracted to identify the lungs and airway. Lung vasculature and lobes are identified by similar processes.
