A method for automatically delineating image data corresponding to vasculature in an anatomical region is presented. The method includes obtaining image data corresponding to soft tissue representative of the anatomical region. In addition, the method includes segmenting image data corresponding to a region of interest from image data corresponding to the anatomical region based on a patient population to obtain image data corresponding to a segmented region of interest. Furthermore, the method includes extracting image data corresponding to vasculature associated with the segmented region of interest by suppressing image data corresponding to soft tissue representative of the segmented region of interest. Systems and computer-readable medium that afford functionality of the type defined by this method are also contemplated in conjunction with the present technique.
