A review: Deep learning for medical image segmentation using multi-modality fusion

Multi-modality is widely used in medical imaging, because it can provide multiinformation about a target (tumor, organ or tissue). Segmentation using multimodality consists of fusing multi-information to improve the segmentation. Recently, deep learning-based approaches have presented the state-of-the-art performance in image classification, segmentation, object detection and tracking tasks. Due to their self-learning and generalization ability over large amounts of data, deep learning recently has also gained great interest in multi-modal medical image segmentation. In this paper, we give an overview of deep learning-based approaches for multi-modal medical image segmentation task. Firstly, we introduce the…
