Abstract

BACKGROUND: The delineation of brain arteriovenous malformations (bAVMs) is crucial for subsequent treatment planning. Manual segmentation is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Applying deep learning to automatically detect and segment bAVM might help to improve clinical practice efficiency.
