Kurzbeschreibung/Zielsetzung

Aneurysm diameter measurement is quick and easy, but suffers from the pitfalls of being "too rough and ready". When semi-automated segmentation took 7-10 minutes to estimate volume, it was not a practical tool for busy, routine clinical practice. Today, the availability of automatic segmentation in seconds is bound to make volume measurement, along with 3D ultrasonography, the tools of the future. There can be no debate.
