• Abstract: Generative adversarial networks (GANs) have been widely investigated for many potential applications in medical imaging. DatasetGAN is a recently proposed framework based on modern GANs that can synthesize high-quality segmented images while requiring only a small set of annotated training images. The synthesized annotated images could be potentially employed for many medical imaging applications, where images with segmentation information are required. However, to the best of our knowledge, there are no published studies focusing on its applications to medical imaging. In this work, preliminary studies were conducted to investigate the utility of DatasetGAN in medical imaging. Three improvements were proposed to the original DatasetGAN framework, considering the unique characteristics of medical images. The synthesized segmented images by DatasetGAN were visually evaluated. The trained DatasetGAN was further analyzed by evaluating the performance of a pre-defined image segmentation technique, which was trained by the use of the synthesized datasets. The effectiveness, concerns, and potential usage of DatasetGAN were discussed.

  Supervised learning deeply relies on large-scale annotated data, which is expensive, time-consuming, and impractical to acquire in medical imaging applications. Active Learning (AL) methods have been widely applied in natural image classification tasks to reduce annotation costs. We propose an AL-based method that can be simultaneously applied to 2D medical image classification, segmentation, and 3D medical image segmentation tasks.
