Illustration of the liver segments, a visual implementation based on the criterion of Couinaud’s liver segments. Couinaud scheme uses the horizontal portal vein axes and the three vertical hepatic veins axes to divide the liver into eight functionally independent segments [16,17]. For liver surgical planning and treatment, the structure of hepatic vessels and their relationship to tumors are of major interest [19].
