**Classification of Liver Segments**
By departing from the standardized Couinaud classification of the liver in segments, the implemented approach enables a more individualized representation of liver segmental distribution [@{d'Albenzio:2023}] \autoref{fig:liver_segments}. Particularly noteworthy is the method’s accurate estimation of the challenging Segment 1, resulting in a comprehensive and precise segmentation of the caudate lobe. While improvements, particularly in automating the landmark marking process, are needed, the approach holds promise for improving liver surgery planning and has the potential to optimize surgical outcomes.

Particularly noteworthy is the method’s estimation of segments 8 and 5, rusulting in a classification that is more applicable to real-world surgical scenarios, as shown in \autoref(fig:couinaud_segments.svg)[@Bismuth:1982].
