Anatomy-Aware 3D Mesh Refinement of Pericardium Segmentations on Computed Tomography
Accurate delineation of the pericardium in a cardiac CT scan is essential for quantifying epicardial adipose tissue, yet it remains one of the most challenging structures to segment due to its poor contrast boundaries. Instead of solely relying on image gradients, our framework leverages the anatomical context of surrounding anatomical structures to guide the segmentation. This work introduces a novel 3D iterative mesh refinement framework that balances anatomical and geometric forces derived from inherent anatomical rules to refine an initial, possibly ambiguous, segmentation into a high-prec
