Abstract

An improved system and method (i.e. utility) for segmentation of medical images is provided. The utility fits an estimated boundary (64) on a structure of interest (60) in an automated selection and fitting process (110). The estimated boundary (64) may be a model boundary that is generated actual boundaries of like structures. In one arrangement, the boundaries may be selected based on the age and/or ethnicity (62) of a patient. In further arrangements, narrow band processing is performed to estimate the actual boundary of the structure of interest.
