N2 - In this paper, we propose a patch-based deep learning approach to segment pelvic vessels in 3D MRI images of pediatric patients. For a given T2 weighted MRI volume, a set of 2D axial patches are extracted using a limited number of user-selected landmarks. In order to take into account the volumetric information, successive 2D axial patches are combined together, producing a set of pseudo RGB color images. These RGB images are then used as input for a convolutional neural network (CNN), pre-trained on the ImageNet dataset, which results into both segmentation and vessel labeling as veins or arteries. The proposed method is evaluated on 35 MRI volumes of pediatric patients, obtaining an average segmentation accuracy in terms of Average Symmetric Surface Distance of ASSD= 0.89 ± 0.07 mm and Dice Index of DC= 0.79 ± 0.02.
