## Slicer-Liver Extension Usage

The extension is separated in the following three sections:
The extension is separated in the following five sections:

- Distance Map Computation: projection of the safety margins in real-time onto the resection surface, which allows the user to modify the resection proposal until the safety requirement are met.
- Resections: computation of the first approximation (planar Bézier) of the resection surface which can be subsequently modified through 16 control points.

2. **Vascular Territory**:
- Create a new territory ID.
3. **Segmentation**:
- Select the segmentation node representing the hepatic/portal vessels.
- Select the segmentation node representing the hepatic/portal vessels, and a new Point List for marking `Vessel points` will be created automatically.
4. **Hide Unnecessary Segments**:
- Use the `Show/Hide` button to hide the liver and/or tumor segmentation nodes if they obstruct the view. This step is not required for creating centerlines on vessel branches but can improve visibility.
5. **Vessel Points**:
- Create a new Point List for `Vessel points`.
- Click the arrow button next to `Vessel points` and place fixed landmark points on the hepatic/portal segmentation. These points will be used to extract the centerlines of user-defined vessel branches.
- Place landmark points on the hepatic/portal segmentation. These points will be added to `Vessel points` and used to extract the centerlines of user-defined vessel branches.
6. **Add Vessel Centerline**:
- After placing the points, click `Add Vessel Centerline` to generate the centerlines.
7. **Calculate Vascular Territory Segmentation**:
7. **Create multiple Vascular Territories**
- Repeat step 1-6 to create multiple Vascular Territories.
8. **Calculate Vascular Territory Segmentation**:
- Once all points are placed and centerlines are added, click `Calculate Vascular Territory Segmentation` to compute the liver segments.
