Method for measuring tumor volume and cyst volume using the Mimics software. A The original images with a clear presentation of the tumors and cysts were selected. B and C The original images were imported into Mimics software, and the “Thresholding” and “Edit Masks” tools were used to distinguish the dimensions of the tumors and cysts. D and E Three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction of the cysts was performed with the “Calculate 3D” tool. F and G The position relationship between the cyst and tumor was identified by combining the reconstructed 3D masks. After making them transparent, the volume of the tumor (yellow) and cyst (green) were directly read through the “Properties” option
