Automatic upper airway segmentation in static and dynamic MRI via anatomy‐guided convolutional neural networks

Purpose Upper airway segmentation on MR images is a prerequisite step for quantitatively studying the anatomical structure and function of the upper airway and surrounding tissues. However, the complex variability of intensity and shape of anatomical structures and different modes of image acquisiti...
