Abstract

RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: Pancreas segmentation accuracy at CT is critical for the identification of pancreatic pathologies and is essential for the development of imaging biomarkers. Our objective was to benchmark the performance of five high-performing pancreas segmentation models across multiple metrics stratified by scan and patient/pancreatic characteristics that may affect segmentation performance.
