Automatic Liver Segmentation in CT Images with Enhanced GAN and Mask Region-Based CNN Architectures

Abstract: Liver image segmentation has been increasingly employed for key medical purposes, including liver functional assessment, disease diagnosis, and treatment. In this work, we introduce a liver image segmentation method based on generative adversarial networks (GANs) and mask region-based convolutional neural networks (Mask R-CNN). Firstly, since most resulting images have noisy features, we further explored the combination of Mask R-CNN and GANs in order to enhance the pixel-wise classification. Secondly, … Show more

“…Wei et al used a combination of GAN and Masks R-CNN to segment the liver from CT images. In the improved mask R-CNN, the k-means algorithm was utilized to adjust the bounding box parameters using a Euclidean distance [ 46 ]. The GAN-based approach yielded an average DSC of 95.3% while evaluating 378 CT images.…”

“…However, these techniques rely on handcrafted characteristics and can only partially convey the features. Fully convolutional neural networks (FCNs) have recently achieved excellent results in a variety of cognitive difficulties [5], [6]. The literature may be generally separated into two groups since many researchers are advocating this collection of deep learning algorithms for issues with liver and tumour segmentation i) 2DFCN, including the UNet architecture [7], multi-channel FCN [8], and FCN built on VGG16 [9] and ii) 3D FCN [10], where 3D convolution with volume data input has been used in place of 2D convolution.…”
