I’ve added a new module yesterday that computes cross-section areas for each slice of a segmentation - see [here](https://discourse.slicer.org/t/compute-surface-area-in-segment-based-on-hounsfield-units-ct-images/11167/2). It is a bit of an overkill for a single slice, but it should work well .

To get it, you need to download Slicer Preview Release revision 28984 (or later) and download Sandbox extension from Examples category.
