Segmentation of Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and surrounding vessels in CT images using deep convolutional neural networks and Texture Descriptors

Fully automated and volumetric segmentation of critical tumors may play a crucial role in diagnosis and surgical planning. One of the most challenging tumor segmentation tasks is localization of Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Exclusive application of conventional methods does not appear promising. Deep learning approaches has achieved great success in... Show more
