Deep Learning Auto-Segmentation of Cervical Neck Skeletal Muscle for Sarcopenia Analysis Using Pre-Therapy CT in Patients with Head and Neck Cancer

2021-12-21

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> <h4>Background/Purpose</h4> Sarcopenia is a prognostic factor in patients with head and neck cancer (HNC). Sarcopenia can be determined using the skeletal muscle index (SMI) calculated from cervical neck SM segmentations. However, SM segmentation requires manual input, which is time-consuming and variable. Therefore, we developed a fully-automated approach to segment cervical vertebra SM. <h4>Mat...
