• Abstract: This contribution presents a deep learning method for the segmentation of prostate zones in MRI images based on U-Net using additive and feature pyramid attention modules, which can improve the workflow of prostate cancer detection and diagnosis. The proposed model is compared to seven different U-Net-based architectures. The automatic segmentation performance of each model of the central zone (CZ), peripheral zone (PZ), transition zone (TZ) and Tumor were evaluated using Dice Score (DSC), and the Intersection over Union (IoU) metrics. The proposed alternative achieved a mean DSC of 84.15% and IoU of 76.9% in the test set, outperforming most of the studied models in this work except from R2U-Net and attention R2U-Net architectures.

  We propose M3BUNet, a fusion of MobileNet and U-Net neural networks, equipped with a novel Mean-Max (MM) attention that operates in two stages to gradually segment pancreas CT images. For the fine segmentation stage, we found that applying a wavelet decomposition filter to create multi-input images enhances pancreas segmentation performance. Our approach demonstrates a considerable performance improvement, achieving an average Dice Similarity Coefficient (DSC) value of up to 89.53% and an Intersection Over Union (IOU) score of up to 81.16 for the NIH pancreas dataset.
