SPGNet: A shape-prior guided network for medical image segmentation (2024)
Conference Proceeding
Song, Z., Liu, X., Zhang, W., Gong, Y., Hao, T., & Zeng, K. (in press). SPGNet: A shape-prior guided network for medical image segmentation.

Given the intricacy and variability of anatomical structures in medical images, some methods employ shape priors to constrain segmentation. However, limited by the representational capability of these priors, existing approaches often struggle to cap... Read More about SPGNet: A shape-prior guided network for medical image segmentation.
