Project Description

Objective Approach and Plan Progress and Next Steps
  • Segmentation of prostate and its sectors
  • Specifically, segmentation of the following prostate sectors: peripheral zones, transition zones, central zone, anterior fibromuscular stroma and urethral sphincter
  • Generation/ Refinement of ground truth data
  • Creation of a 3D sector model
  • Initialization of segmentation with user interaction or atlas-based segmentation (in order to decrease search space)
  • Try (model-based) segmentation approach (costs for segmentation optimization can be derived for example from supervised classification of the gland tissue). The shape of individual sector models could be used as segmentation prior
  • if more training data is available: deep learning for a better cost generation or for an automatic sector segmentation
