Limitations of an automated embolism segmentation method in clinical practice.

CONCLUSIONS: Automated segmentation failures were caused by specific lung diseases, anatomy varieties, improper scan time, improper scan dose, manual errors or other unknown reasons. Realization of those limitations is crucial for developing robust automated schemes to handle these issues in a single pass when a large number of CTPA examinations need to be analyzed.
