Investigate adding a constraint based on the maximum size of the aorta #48

Description

@smiths

Since we have a distance map, and we can find out the maximum diameter of the aorta, we should be able to add a constraint on the diameter of the aorta in the segmentation. This information could be useful for detecting when the algorithm is failing.

We don't necessarily have to add a constraint now, but we should definitely work this idea into the final report.

We don't currently have patient-specific information, like their height, but if we did we could morphometrically scale the maximum aorta diameter using the patient's height. We could note this as potential future work.

The above idea came out of the design review meeting with @inglis-dl on May 17, 2023.
