Artificial intelligence for automatic cerebral ventricle segmentation and volume calculation: a clinical tool for the evaluation of pediatric hydrocephalus

Abstract: OBJECTIVEImaging evaluation of the cerebral ventricles is important for clinical decision-making in pediatric hydrocephalus. Although quantitative measurements of ventricular size, over time, can facilitate objective comparison, automated tools for calculating ventricular volume are not structured for clinical use. The authors aimed to develop a fully automated deep learning (DL) model for pediatric cerebral ventricle segmentation and volume calculation for widespread clinical implementation across multiple ho… Show more

“…The automatic ventricle segmentation method can overcome the limitations of the manual segmentation method [ 10 ]. It is an efficient and rapid ventricle segmentation method [ 12 , 23 ]. The most important thing is that it can significantly shorten the operation time [ 24 ]; this lays a solid foundation for the direct measurement of the ventricle volume in large-scale clinical practice.…”

“…In the past, researchers manually segmented the ventricle to calculate the volume. But this method needs to be based on professional knowledge [ 10 , 11 ] and is very time- and energy-consuming [ 12 14 ]. More importantly, it is prone to human errors [ 15 ].…”

“…Interest in radiology applications for AI has skyrocketed over the past few years [35]. Although emergency radiology may benefit from other types of AI such as automatic segmentation of structures [36], ventricular volume measurements for hydrocephalus [37], predicting ED patient volume-which is a driver of ED imaging volume [26,38]-or for protocolling studies [39], the main applications for the ED are for diagnosis [40]. This currently takes the form of flagging studies for worklist prioritization or as a double-check to catch radiologist errors (i.e., "misses") rather than as a radiologist replacement [41].…”
