Figure 7.

Qualitative results on selected subjects from Fig. 6. The letters (a, b, c, d) match with the subjects circled in Fig. 6. The left panel shows a volumetric view of segmentation. The right part presents the results on several slices. The manually labeled anterior abdominal wall on sparsely sampled slices, and the manually labeled herniated region are overlaid on the automatic segmentation. In addition, in the slice representation, the segmentation errors around the normal abdominal wall, and those for the herniated region are highlighted.
