TransONet: Automatic Segmentation of Vasculature in Computed Tomographic Angiograms Using Deep Learning
arXiv preprint arXiv:2311.10328, 2023•arxiv.org
Pathological alterations in the human vascular system underlie many chronic diseases, such
as atherosclerosis and aneurysms. However, manually analyzing diagnostic images of the
vascular system, such as computed tomographic angiograms (CTAs) is a time-consuming
and tedious process. To address this issue, we propose a deep learning model to segment
the vascular system in CTA images of patients undergoing surgery for peripheral arterial
disease (PAD). Our study focused on accurately segmenting the vascular system (1) from …

Pathological alterations in the human vascular system underlie many chronic diseases, such as atherosclerosis and aneurysms. However, manually analyzing diagnostic images of the vascular system, such as computed tomographic angiograms (CTAs) is a time-consuming and tedious process. To address this issue, we propose a deep learning model to segment the vascular system in CTA images of patients undergoing surgery for peripheral arterial disease (PAD). Our study focused on accurately segmenting the vascular system (1) from the descending thoracic aorta to the iliac bifurcation and (2) from the descending thoracic aorta to the knees in CTA images using deep learning techniques. Our approach achieved average Dice accuracies of 93.5% and 80.64% in test dataset for (1) and (2), respectively, highlighting its high accuracy and potential clinical utility. These findings demonstrate the use of deep learning techniques as a valuable tool for medical professionals to analyze the health of the vascular system efficiently and accurately.
