Multi-muscle deep learning segmentation to automate the quantification of muscle fat infiltration in cervical spine conditions
Abstract Muscle fat infiltration (MFI) has been widely reported across cervical spine disorders. The quantification of MFI requires time-consuming and rater-dependent manual segmentation techniques. A convolutional neural network (CNN) model was trained to segment seven cervical spine muscle groups...
