Abstract
In a particular embodiment, a method includes applying a first feature detector to a portion of an image to detect a first set of features. The first set of features is used to locate a region of interest, and a boundary corresponding to the region of interest is determined. The method also includes displaying the boundary at a display. In response to receiving user input to accept the displayed boundary, a second feature detector is applied to an area of the image encapsulated by the boundary.
