• Abstract: Applying machine learning technologies, especially deep learning, into medical image segmentation is being widely studied because of its state-of-the-art performance and results. It can be a key step to provide a reliable basis for clinical diagnosis, such as 3D reconstruction of human tissues, image-guided interventions, image analyzing and visualization. In this review article, deep-learning-based methods for ultrasound image segmentation are categorized into six main groups according to their architectures and training at first. Secondly, for each group, several current representative algorithms are selected, introduced, analyzed and summarized in detail. In addition, common evaluation methods for image segmentation and ultrasound image segmentation datasets are summarized. Further, the performance of the current methods and their evaluations are reviewed. In the end, the challenges and potential research directions for medical ultrasound image segmentation are discussed.

  Deep learning-based object detection methods are commonly used for biomedical image segmentation. Existing surveys often lack a standardized approach or focus on broader segmentation techniques. We critically analyzed these methods, identified the key challenges, and discussed the future directions. This SLR aims to provide the research community with a quick yet deeper understanding of these segmentation models.

  Clinical decision support using deep neural networks has become a topic of steadily growing interest. clinicians are often hesitant to adopt the technology because its underlying decision-making process is considered to be intransparent and difficult to comprehend. We propose a novel decision explanation scheme based on CycleGAN activation which generates high-quality visualizations of classifier decisions even in smaller data sets.

  The semantic image segmentation task consists of classifying each pixel of an image into an instance, where each instance corresponds to a class. In the medical image analysis domain, image segmentation can be used for image-guided interventions, radiotherapy, or improved radiological diagnostics. In this review, we categorize the leading deep learning-based medical and non-medical image segmentation solutions into six main groups of deep architectural, data synthesis-based, loss function-based, sequenced models, weakly supervised, and multi-task methods.
