Zusammenfassung

In this contribution, we propose a 2D deep segmentation refinement approach, that is inspired by the U-Net architecture and incorporates result-dependent loss adaptation. The performance of our method regarding segmentation quality is evaluated on the example of hip joint segmentation in T1-weighted MRI data sets. The results are compared to an ordinary U-Net implementation. While the segmentation quality of the proximal femur does not significantly change, our proposed method shows promising improvements for the segmentation of the pelvic bone complex, which shows more shape variability in the 2D image slices along the longitudinal axis.
