Efficient and accurate diagnosis from CT images is a crucial step in liver cancer diagnosis and treatment. Currently, liver cancer diagnosis mainly relies on manual work, which is heavily dependent on doctors' experience and susceptible to their subjective factors. This paper will explore in-depth automatic segmentation methods for the liver and liver tumors in CT images based on deep learning. By implementing architectures such as Unet and its variants, and simultaneously calling the Qwen-VL-Max multimodal large model to evaluate segmentation results, and using the PYQT framework to build an interface, the system achieves precise segmentation of liver and tumor regions in CT images. Thus, an efficient, easy-to-operate, and highly interactive liver tumor segmentation system is constructed to provide technical support for doctors' auxiliary diagnosis.
