Deep convolutional neural networks for the segmentation of gliomas in multi-sequence MRI

In their most aggressive form, the mortality rate of gliomas is high. Accurate segmentation is important for surgery and treatment planning, as well as for follow-up evaluation. In this paper, we propose to segment brain tumors using a Deep Convolutional Neural Network. Neural Networks are known to...
