Abstract Automatic pancreas segmentation in CT scans is crucial for various medical applications including early disease detection, treatment planning and therapeutic evaluation. However, the pancreas’s small size, irregular morphology, and low contrast with surrounding tissues make accurate pancreas segmentation still a challenging task. To address these challenges, we propose a novel RPMS-DSAUnet for accurate automatic pancreas segmentation in abdominal CT images. First, a Residual Pyramid Squeeze Attention module enabling hierarchical multi-resolution feature extraction with dynamic feature weighting and selective feature reinforcement capabilities is integrated into the backbone network, enhancing pancreatic feature extraction and improving localization accuracy.… More >

Abstract Globally, liver cancer ranks as the sixth most frequent malignancy cancer. The importance of early detection is undeniable, as liver cancer is the fifth most common disease in men and the ninth most common cancer in women. Recent advances in imaging, biomarker discovery, and genetic profiling have greatly enhanced the ability to diagnose liver cancer. Early identification is vital since liver cancer is often asymptomatic, making diagnosis difficult. Imaging techniques such as Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), Computed Tomography (CT), and ultrasonography can be used to identify liver cancer once a sample of liver tissue is… More >

Abstract Liver cancer is one of frequent causes of death from malignancy in the world. Owing to the outstanding advantages of computer-aided diagnosis and deep learning, fully automatic segmentation of computed tomography (CT) images turned into a research hotspot over the years. The liver has quite low contrast with the surrounding tissues, together with its lesion areas are thoroughly complex. To deal with these problems, we proposed effective methods for enhancing features and processed public datasets from Liver Tumor Segmentation Challenge (LITS) for the verification. In this experiment, data pre-processing based on the image enhancement and… More >
