Abstract
This paper presents the 3D fully convolutional neural network extended by attention gates and deep supervision layers. The model is able to automatically segment the kidney and kidney-tumor from arterial phase abdominal computed tomography (CT) scans. It was trained on the dataset proposed by the Kidney Tumor Segmentation Challange 2019. The best solution reaches the dice score 96, 43± 1, 06 and 79, 94± 5, 33 for kidney and kidney-tumor labels, respectively. The implementation of the proposed methodology using PyTorch is publicly available at github.com/tureckova/Abdomen-CT-Image-Segmentation.

Kidney Segmentation Framework using 3D CNN

Authors
Meng, Zhe

Abstract
Two 3D CNN was used to detect the location of kidney and separate kidney and tumor respectively. 1 Network structure The CNN structure we used is V-net [1]. The left side of the network is divided in different stages that operate at different resolutions. Each stage comprises one to three convolutional layers. The convolutions performed in each stage use volumetric kernels having size 5 × 5 × 5 voxels. As the data proceeds through different stages along the compression path, its resolution is reduced. This is performed through convolution with 2× 2× 2 voxels wide kernels applied with stride 2 . Since the second operation extracts features by considering only non overlapping 2 × 2 × 2 volume patches, the size of the resulting feature maps is halved. 2 Kidney detection One V-net was training using patches extracted from whole CT images. In testing stage, it was used firstly detect where are the kidney. 3 Kidney and tumor segmentation Another V-net was training using patches extracted around kidneys. In testing stage, it was used to separate kidney and tumor based on previous detection. References 1.
