CNN-Based Prostate Zonal Segmentation on T2-Weighted MR Images: A Cross-Dataset Study
2020
Prostate cancer is the most common cancer among US men. However, prostate imaging is still challenging despite the advances in multi-parametric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), which provides both morphologic and functional information pertaining to the pathological regions. Along with whole prostate gland segmentation, distinguishing between the central gland (CG) and peripheral zone (PZ) can guide toward differential diagnosis, since the frequency and severity of tumors differ in these regions; however, their boundary is often weak and fuzzy. This work presents a preliminary study on deep learning to automatically delineate the CG and PZ, aiming at evaluating the generalization ability o…
