Abstract Gliomas are aggressive brain tumors known for their heterogeneity, unclear borders, and diverse locations on Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scans. These factors present significant challenges for MRI-based segmentation, a crucial step for effective treatment planning and monitoring of glioma progression. This study proposes a novel deep learning framework, ResNet Multi-Head Attention U-Net (ResMHA-Net), to address these challenges and enhance glioma segmentation accuracy. ResMHA-Net leverages the strengths of both residual blocks from the ResNet architecture and multi-head attention mechanisms. This powerful combination empowers the network to prioritize informative regions within the 3D MRI data and capture… More >
