Module Description

A flow chart of the level-set segmentation process

This module provides the level-set segmentation process of the Vascular Modeling Toolkit (http://www.vmtk.org) in 3D Slicer.

Segmentation using level sets consists of an initialization and an evolution step. The initialization step involves the description of a starting model within a region of interest. In the evolution step this initial deformable model then gets inflated to match the contours of the targeted volume.
