Adaption of the LFBNet

[eznatsnok]

Hi,
i am a student at the technical university Regensburg in Bavaria, Germany.

I use your pipeline for automated lesion segmentation in PET/CT images for my thesis.

In the LFBNet paper i read, the original use of the LFBNet was not to delineate cancer but to semgent other anatomical structures like inner ear oder prostate.

On your repository i was unable to find how you adapted and especially trained the LFBNet to segment cancer.

I am looking forward to your answer.

Kind regards

Hello @eznatsnok
Firstly, thank you for your interest in the model.
The LFBNet was written in the original paper for anatomical structure segmentation (https://doi.org/10.1109/TMI.2021.3060497) and adapted to the lesion segmentation on the MIP PET images as written in the paper https://doi.org/10.2967/jnumed.121.263501. Please refer to the supplemental material of the second paper for details.
