Abstract
The present disclosure relates to systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media for segmenting medical images. Embodiments of the present disclosure may relate to a method for segmenting medical images. The method may be implemented by a processor device executing a plurality of computer executable instructions. The method may comprise receiving an image from a memory, and identifying at least one landmark point within the image. The method may further comprise selecting an image point in the image, and determining at least one feature for the image point relative to the at least one landmark point. The method may also comprise associating the image point with an anatomical structure by using a classification model based on the at least one determined feature.
