Hi everyone,

I’m a biomedical engineering student from Italy, this is the first time I’m using 3D Slicer.
I’m writing to ask you some information about the Lung CT Analyzer and Lung CT Segmenter extensions in 3D Slicer.

I’d like to ask you some details about the image segmentation algorithms that are implemented in the extensions: which algorithms are used to segment the lungs (parenchyma)? Why are the markups needed?
I read that airways are segmented by applying a local thrsholding algorithm; I’d like to ask
which conditions are set in terms of number of pixels in the neighborhood and parameters used for the computation of the local thresholds.

Thank you for your support,

best regards,

Paolo
