To better understand early brain growth patterns in health and disorder, it is critical to accurately segment infant brain magnetic resonance (MR) images into white matter (WM), gray matter (GM), and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Deep learning-based methods have achieved state-of-the-art performance; however, one of major limitations is that the learning-based methods may suffer from the multi-site issue, that is, the models trained on a dataset from one site may not be applicable to the datasets acquired from other sites with different imaging protocols/scanners. To promote methodological development in the community, iSeg-2019 challenge (http://iseg2019.web.unc.edu) provides a set of 6-month infant subjects from multiple sites with different protocols/scanners for the participating methods. Training/validation subjects are from UNC (MAP) and testing subjects are from UNC/UMN (BCP), Stanford University, and Emory University. By the time of writing, there are 30 automatic segmentation methods participating in iSeg-2019.We review the 8 top-ranked teams by detailing their pipelines/implementations, presenting experimental results and evaluating performance in terms of the whole brain, regions of interest, and gyral landmark curves. We also discuss their limitations and possible future directions for the multi-site issue. We hope that the multi-site dataset in iSeg-2019 and this review article will attract more researchers on the multi-site issue.

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has become a severe worldwide health emergency and is spreading at a rapid rate. Segmentation of COVID lesions from computed tomography (CT) scans is of great importance for supervising disease progression and further clinical treatment. As labeling COVID-19 CT scans is laborintensive and time-consuming, it is essential to develop a segmentation method based on limited labeled data to conduct this task. In this paper, we propose a self-ensembled co-training framework, which is trained by limited labeled data and large-scale unlabeled data, to automatically extract COVID lesions from CT scans. Specifically, to enrich the diversity of unsupervised information, we build a co-training framework consisting of two collaborative models, in which the two models teach each other during training by using their respective predicted pseudo-labels of unlabeled data. Moreover, to alleviate the adverse impacts of noisy pseudo-labels for each model, we propose a selfensembling strategy to perform consistency regularization Manuscript
