PURPOSE: To develop a deep learning (DL)-based automated segmentation model for rectal cancer on T2-weighted (T2W) magnetic resonance (MR) images.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 458 patients who underwent baseline rectal MR imaging were retrospectively enrolled. An experienced radiologist labeled the tumor on each slice of the selected T2W axial images covering the entire tumor mass, and tumor volume was measured during labeling. Another radiologist labeled the rectum on the same images. Attention U-Net was trained on the T2W images from the training dataset to classify each voxel as tumor or non-tumor. Segmentation with or without rectum guidance was compared using evaluation metrics, including the Dice similarity coefficient (DSC), in the test dataset.
RESULTS: The tumor segmentation DSC without rectum guidance was 73.35% (71.97-74.71); that with the predicted rectum was 71.79% (70.53-73.05); and that with the overlaid rectum was 75.52% (74.32-76.62), which was the highest among the three segmentation models. Tumor volume showed a positive correlation with tumor segmentation accuracy with the predicted rectum (r=0.333, p=0.001; overlaid rectum, r=0.319, p=0.002) and without rectum guidance (r=0.219, p=0.036).
CONCLUSION: A DL-based automated segmentation model can predict RC with over 70% accuracy, which was further improved with overlaid rectum, and larger tumor volume.
