Abdominal multi-organ segmentation with cascaded convolutional and adversarial deep networks

作者:

Highlights:

• Abdominal multi-organ segmentation with deep learning is successfully investigated.

• Standard adversarial networks are extended with cascaded pre-trained encoder-decoders.

• Cascaded convolutional and adversarial networks strengthens generalization abilities.

• our pipeline outperforms existing methods for liver, kidneys and spleen segmentation.

• Our contributions gave us the first rank for three CHAOS competition categories.
