1. Segmentation and synthesis of pelvic region CT images via neural networks trained on XCAT phantom data
University essay from Linköpings universitet/DatorseendeAbstract : Deep learning methods for medical image segmentation are hindered by the lack of training data. This thesis aims to develop a method that overcomes this problem. Basic U-net trained on XCAT phantom data was tested first. The segmentation results were unsatisfactory even when artificial quantum noise was added. READ MORE

2. Automatic Tissue Segmentation of Volumetric CT Data of the Pelvic Region
University essay from Linköpings universitet/Medicinsk informatikAbstract : Automatic segmentation of human organs allows more accurate calculation of organ doses in radiationtreatment planning, as it adds prior information about the material composition of imaged tissues. For instance, the separation of tissues into bone, adipose tissue and remaining soft tissues allows to use tabulated material compositions of those tissues. READ MORE
