3D Slicer segmentation recipes

Recipes for common medical image segmentation tasks using 3D Slicer

Overview

Usually there is strong contrast between tissue and air, therefore segmenting the skin surface should be easy, except there may be air inside body part or some tissues or fluids may have image intensity similar to air. Therefore, simple global thresholding may not always work.

This recipe replaces an earlier recipe that used Flood filling effect. This new recipe is much simpler and provides comparable or better results.

Example
