The Lobular Liver workflow uses APS results to automatically segment the liver and provides tools to edit the segmentation appropriately including creating centerlines. Using the AQI toolset, the user is able to isolate abnormalities from the liver to create a separate 3D volume and create a transection plane.
Select a liver study from the patient list.
Load selected study into the Lobular Liver workflow.

Click "Other Part" to begin selecting the liver abnormality.
The Lobular Liver workflow uses APS results to automatically segment the liver and provides tools to edit the segmentation appropriately including creating centerlines. Using the AQI toolset, the user is able to isolate abnormalities from the liver to create a separate 3D volume and create a transection plane.
Using the bottom tool panel, segment the liver abnormality. Make sure to "Select" the Region of Interest.
Name the abnormality and click the camera icon to save the mask.
Click "Simulation" to prepare a transectional cut line.
The Lobular Liver workflow uses APS results to automatically segment the liver and provides tools to edit the segmentation appropriately including creating centerlines. Using the AQI toolset, the user is able to isolate abnormalities from the liver to create a separate 3D volume and create a transection plane.
Hold shift and drag across an axial, coronal, or sagittal view to make a transection plane. Use ALT to nudge the plane if desired.
When you are satisfied with the transection plane hit the "Cut" button.
The Lobular Liver workflow uses APS results to automatically segment the liver and provides tools to edit the segmentation appropriately including creating centerlines. Using the AQI toolset, the user is able to isolate abnormalities from the liver to create a separate 3D volume and create a transection plane.
The volume of the remaining part, as well as the percentage of the volume, will be displayed in the 3D view.
Click "Auto territory segment" to begin labeling and segmenting the eight functional lobes of the liver.
The Lobular Liver workflow uses APS results to automatically segment the liver and provides tools to edit the segmentation appropriately including creating centerlines. Using the AQI toolset, the user is able to isolate abnormalities from the liver to create a separate 3D volume and create a transection plane.
