In clinical trials, the evaluation of CT/MRI images is usually done manually or with the use of semi-automatic segmentation techniques. Liver segmentation, as well as segmentations of other organs such as prostate, lung, is a crucial step in computer-aided systems for cancer detection. In order to improve the quality and performance of diagnosis computer-aided systems became popular, where deep learning approach demonstrates its potential and strengths as robust and powerful tool in particular for medical image segmentation. This work presents a novel deep convolutional neural network architecture DualTail-Net in application for automatic liver segmentation on abdominal CT images.
