Oropharyngeal airway segmentation

Can somebody help me how to segment oropharyngeal airway in the 3D slicer. Thank you

Hi,

What modality? If you have a CT that’s super easy hen because the Hounsfield value for air is pretty much different from anything else on the scan.
If this is the case, a simple Threshold operation will do. You may need to cut a few parts (scissor tool), but that’s about it.
With CBCT and MRI it is a bit more complicated, but not by much.
If you plan to use the segment in other software (FEM for example), then it gets a bit more tricky but then most of the difficulties can be treated outside Slicer.

Let me know if you have further questions!
