Abstract
The paper presents a method generating a 3D lungs model. The model is represented by a B-spline surface, generated by the global surface interpolation algorithm. The model to be derived is based on a vector of automatically obtained points marked on the contour of the lungs. Active contour method is used to make the lung segmentation more robust.
