Abstract

BACKGROUND: Three-dimensional T1 magnetization prepared rapid acquisition gradient echo (3D-T1-MPRAGE) is preferred in detecting brain metastases (BM) among MRI. We developed an automatic deep learning-based detection and segmentation method for BM (named BMDS net) on 3D-T1-MPRAGE images and evaluated its performance.
