A region growing algorithm for controlling leakage comprising a processor configured to:select a starting point for segmentation of data;initiate a propagation process by designating adjacent voxels around the starting point;determine whether any new voxels are segmented; count and analyze the segmented new voxels to determine leakage levels;identify and record segmented new voxels from a previous iteration when the leakage levels exceed a predetermined threshold;perform labeling of the segmented new voxels of the previous iteration;select the segmented new voxels from the previous iteration when the leakage levels fall below the predetermined threshold; andcreate a voxel list based on acceptable segmented voxels found in the previous iteration.
