Hello all, I am new to slicer community. I need to process and perform measurements on a set of DICOM CTs of patients with AAAs. What would be the recommended workflow and tips? Currently I am manually segmenting using grow from seeds, extracting the centerline with vmtk module and then performing cross section analysis.  
Many thanks in advance!

I would say that’s a pretty good workflow. I don’t know of anything more automated than that, although once you have a good dataset of segmentations you might consider training a MONAI Label model. It would be helpful if you also included thrombus and calcifications.
