- Distance Map Computation: projection of the safety margins in real-time onto the resection surface, which allows the user to modify the resection proposal until the safety requirement are met.

- Resections: computation of the first approximation (planar Bézier) of the resection surface which can be subsequently modified through 16 control points.

4. **Hide Unnecessary Segments**:

- Use the `Show/Hide` button to hide the liver and/or tumor segmentation nodes if they obstruct the view. This step is not required for creating centerlines on vessel branches but can improve visibility.

- Click the arrow button next to `Vessel points` and place fixed landmark points on the hepatic/portal segmentation. These points will be used to extract the centerlines of user-defined vessel branches.
