Abstract

Systems and methods for computing uncertainty include generating a surface model of a target anatomical object from medical imaging data of a patient. Uncertainty is estimated at each of a plurality of vertices of the surface model. The uncertainty estimated at each of the plurality of vertices is visualized on the surface model.
