Abstract

PURPOSE: Clinical rib fracture diagnosis via computed tomography (CT) screening has attracted much attention in recent years. However, automated and accurate segmentation solutions remain a challenging task due to the large sets of 3D CT data to deal with. Down-sampling is often required to face computer constraints, but the performance of the segmentation may decrease in this case.
