FIELD: information technology.
SUBSTANCE: method involves manually defining at least two contours delineating the structure of interest, the at least two contours lying in two different contouring planes that are different and non-parallel with respect to each other; and automatically fitting a three-dimensional polygonal mesh to the structure of interest in a three-dimensional image or map while respecting the manually defined contours as constraints on vertices of the polygonal mesh.
EFFECT: high accuracy of segmentation of structures of interest.
