Automatic Multi-Organ Segmentation on Abdominal CT With Dense V-Networks
Open accessAbstract
Automatic segmentation of abdominal anatomy on computed tomography (CT) images can support diagnosis, treatment planning, and treatment delivery workflows. Segmentation methods using statistical models and multi-atlas label fusion (MALF) require inter-subject image registrations, which are challenging for abdominal images, but alternative methods without registration have not yet achieved higher accuracy for most abdominal organs. We present a registration-free deep-learning-based segmentation algorithm for eight organs that are relevant for navigation in endoscopic pancreatic and biliary procedures, including the pancreas, the gastrointestinal tract (esophagus, stomach, and duodenum) and surrounding organs (liver, spleen, left kidney, and gallbladder). We directly compared the segmentation accuracy of the proposed method to the existing deep learning and MALF methods in a cross-validation on a multi-centre data set with 90 subjects. The proposed method yielded significantly higher Dice scores for all organs and lower mean absolute distances for most organs, including Dice scores of 0.78 versus 0.71, 0.74, and 0.74 for the pancreas, 0.90 versus 0.85, 0.87, and 0.83 for the stomach, and 0.76 versus 0.68, 0.69, and 0.66 for the esophagus. We conclude that the deep-learning-based segmentation represents a registration-free method for multi-organ abdominal CT segmentation whose accuracy can surpass current methods, potentially supporting image-guided navigation in gastrointestinal endoscopy procedures.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
