Project Description

Objective	Approach and Plan	Progress and Next Steps
Fusion of multi-plane segmentations of the prostate in order to obtain better accuracy, especially in the apex and base regions. Investigate multiple ways of fusing the segmentation of three network outputs.	Work done: created training data for different orientations Automatic segmentation of each plane with Encoder-Decoder Network Work ahead: Explore, discuss and investigate different approaches for fusion of the segmentations, e.g. simple majority voting, suface reconstruction from point cloud, ...
