Abstract In this study we evaluated open-source software for lung segmentation. Several parameters which emphasize on functionality, usability, image quality and 3D export are considered for this evaluation. Based on these parameters, a scoring system is generated. Our preliminary evaluation results indicated that the Pulmonary toolkit obtains the best overall performance according to the scoring system. However, the ranking of software shows a certain variation among different criteria. The selection of software should regard the focus and the specific interest of the user.
