Abstract

Brain tumor segmentation plays an important role in the disease diagnosis. In this paper, we proposed deep learning frameworks, i.e. MvNet and SPNet, to address the challenges of multimodal brain tumor segmentation. The proposed multi-view deep learning framework (MvNet) uses three multi-branch fully-convolutional residual networks (Mb-FCRN) to segment multimodal brain images from different view-point, i.e. slices along x, y, z axis. The three sub-networks produce independent segmentation results and vote for the final outcome. The SPNet is a CNN-based framework developed to predict the survival time of patients. The proposed deep learning frameworks was evaluated on BraTS 17 validation set and achieved competing results for tumor segmentation While Dice scores of 0.88, 0.75 0.71 were achieved for whole tumor, enhancing tumor and tumor core, respectively, an accuracy of 0.55 was obtained for survival prediction.
