3D SEGMENTATION USING SPACE CARVING AND 2D CONVOLUTIONAL NEURAL NETWORKS

摘要

A system for generating a 3D segmentation of a target volume is provided. The system accesses views of an X-ray scan of a target volume. The system applies a 2D CNN to each view to generate a 2D multi-channel feature vector for each view. The system applies a space carver to generate a 3D channel volume for each channel based on the 2D multi-channel feature vectors. The system then applies a linear combining technique to the 3D channel volumes to generate a 3D multi-label map that represents a 3D segmentation of the target volume.
