Abstract

A computer implemented method for generating a 3D printable model of a patient specific anatomic feature from 2D medical images is provided. A 3D image is automatically generated from a set of 2D medical images. A machine learning based image segmentation technique is used to segment the generated 3D image. A 3D printable model of the patient specific anatomic feature is created from the segmented 3D image.
