Abstract
Representations of a segmented, contoured organ or lesion are obtained from two-dimensional or three-dimensional images. A contour within the image of the lesion or organ of interest is used to identify a region around the initial contour and transform it into a boundary image comprising sampling lines that contain points identifying the organ boundary.
