Clinical Evaluation of a Multiparametric Deep Learning Model for Glioblastoma Segmentation Using Heterogeneous Magnetic Resonance Imaging Data From Clinical Routine

Conclusions The proposed approach for automatic segmentation of GB proved to be robust on routine clinical data and showed on all tumor compartments a high automatic detection rate and a high accuracy, comparable to interrater variability. Further work on improvements of the segmentation accuracy for the necrosis compartments should be guided by the evaluation of the clinical relevance. Therefore, we propose this approach as a suitable building block for automatic tumor segmentation to support radiologists or neurosurgeons in the preoperative reading of GB MRI images and characterization of primary GB.
