Complete fully automatic detection, segmentation and 3D reconstruction of tumor volume for non-small cell lung cancer using YOLOv4 and region-based active contour model

作者:

Highlights:

• Development of an automatic system for NSCLC detection and segmentation.

• YOLOv4 and region-based active contour model were used to develop.

• YOLOv4 was trained on pre-trained weights to ensure good performance.

• Extracted contours were rendered into to a 3D volumetric tumor.

• System accuracy was verified using 3D printed images.
