An automatic method for segmenting the liver from the portal venous phase of abdominal CT images using the K-Means clustering method is described in this paper. We have incorporated an interactive technique for correcting the errors in the liver segmentation results using power law transformation. The proposed method was validated on abdominal CT volumes of fifteen patients obtained from Kasturba Medical College, Manipal. The average values of the various standard evaluation metrics obtained are as follows: Dice coefficient = 0.9361, Jaccard index = 0.8805, volumetric overlap error = 0.1195, absolute volume difference = 4.048%, average symmetric surface distance = 1.7282 mm and maximum symmetric surface distance = 38.039 mm. The quantitative and qualitative results obtained in our preliminary work show that the K-Means clustering technique along with power law transformation is effective in producing good liver segmentation outputs. As future work, we will attempt to automate the power law transformation technique.
