Synopsis

Segmentation of lesions within the liver is pivotal for surveillance, diagnosis and treatment planning, and automated or semi-automated approaches can aid clinical workflows. Many patients that are under surveillance may have had previous surgery, meaning their scans will contain post-surgical features. We investigate the use of a deep learning segmentation model for non-contrast MRI that can distinguish between lesions, surgical clips and resection-induced fluid-filling regions. We report mean dice scores of 0.55, 0.72 and 0.88 for these classes respectively, demonstrating the potential of this model for semi-automated workflows.
