ST-V-Net: incorporating shape prior into convolutional neural networks for proximal femur segmentation

Abstract We aim to develop a deep-learning-based method for automatic proximal femur segmentation in quantitative computed tomography (QCT) images. We proposed a spatial transformation V-Net (ST-V-Net), which contains a V-Net and a spatial transform network (STN) to extract the proximal femur from Q...
