Abstract

The article describes simple and straightforward method for vascular network segmentation of computed tomography examinations. Proposed method is shown step by step with illustrations on liver's portal vein segmentation. There is also described method of creating and exporting mesh and simple way of its visualization which is possible also from a web-browser. The method was developed to provide satisfactory results in a short time and is supposed to be used as geometry input for mathematical models.
