Description

A pre-trained model for volumetric (3D) segmentation of the pancreas and tumor from portal venous phase CT.

This model is trained using the runnerup [1] awarded pipeline of the “Medical Segmentation Decathlon Challenge 2018” using the AHnet architecture [2].

Data

This model is trained with Pancreas dataset, as part of “Medical Segmentation Decathlon Challenge 2018”. It consists of 281 labelled data and 139 non-labelled data. The labelled data was partitioned, based on our own split, into

224 training images and 57 validation images for this training task, as shown in config/dataset_0.json.

For more detailed description of “Medical Segmentation Decathlon Challenge 2018,” please see http://medicaldecathlon.com/.

The training dataset is Task07_Pancreas.tar from the link above.

The data must be converted to 1mm resolution before training:

Copy
Copied!
            

tlt-dataconvert -d ${SOURCE_IMAGE_ROOT} -r 1 -s .nii.gz -e .nii -o ${DESTINATION_IMAGE_ROOT}

NOTE: to match up with the default setting, we suggest that ${DESTINATION_IMAGE_ROOT} match DATA_ROOT as defined in environment.json in this MMAR’s config folder.

Training configuration

The provided training configuration required 12GB GPU memory.

Data Conversion: convert to resolution 1mm x 1mm x 1mm

Model Input Shape: dynamic

Training Script: train.sh

Input and output formats

Input:

Single channel CT image

Output:

Three channels

  • Label 1: Pancreas
