Abstract

Atlases are frequently employed to assist medical image segmentation with prior information. This paper introduces a multi-atlas architecture that is trained to locally characterize the appearance (average intensity and standard deviation) of normal tissues in various observed and computed data channels of brain MRI records. The multiple atlas is then deployed to enhance the accuracy of an ensemble learning based brain tumor segmentation procedure that uses binary decision trees. The proposed method is validated using the low-grade tumor volumes of the BraTS 2016 train data set. The use of atlases improve the segmentation quality, causing a rise of up to 1.5% in average Dices scores.
