Abstract

PURPOSE: We developed new deep learning-based hierarchical brain segmentation (DLHBS) method that can segment T1-weighted MR images (T1WI) into 107 brain subregions and calculate the volume of each subregion. This study aimed to evaluate the repeatability and reproducibility of volume estimation using DLHBS and compare them with those of representative brain segmentation tools such as statistical parametric mapping (SPM) and FreeSurfer (FS).
