Abstract

Segmenting liver tumors in medical imaging is pivotal for precise diagnosis, treatment, and evaluating therapy outcomes. Even with modern imaging technologies, fully automated segmentation systems have not overcome the challenge posed by the diversity in the shape, size, and texture of liver tumors. Such delays often hinder clinicians from making timely and accurate decisions. This study tries to resolve these issues with the development of UIGO. This new deep learning model merges U-Net and Inception networks, incorporating advanced feature selection and optimization strategies. The goals of UIGO include achieving high precision segmented results while maintaining optimal computational requirements for…
