Towards an accurate and generalizable multiple sclerosis lesion segmentation model using self-ensembled lesion fusion [PDF]
Automatic multiple sclerosis (MS) lesion segmentation using multi-contrast magnetic resonance (MR) images provides improved efficiency and reproducibility compared to manual delineation. Current state-of-the-art automatic MS lesion segmentation methods utilize modified U-Net-like architectures.
