Description

As part of post-processing, split each lung field into quadrants.

Come up with a reasonable geometric (not anatomical) method for doing this.

The quadrants should resemble the quadrants used for air trapping and fibrosis severity scoring used in e.g. [this paper](https://www.spiedigitallibrary.org/conference-proceedings-of-spie/10975/109750H/LungAIR--an-automated-technique-to-predict-hospitalization-due-to/10.1117/12.2508006.short?SSO=1&tab=ArticleLink):

This is a feature extraction step, so there should be a way to visualize the quadrants in the xray features view. Perhaps markups for the quadrant boundary, or segments.

Research direction

No files or tests are named. Start by locating the post-processing code and the X-ray features view, then establish how quadrant boundaries or segments can be visualized; done means each lung field is split into geometric quadrants and those quadrants are visible in the features view.
