| Abstract | INTRODUCTION: Accurate tumor segmentation is a prerequisite for reliable diagnosis and treatment of brain cancer. Gliomas, a highly prevalent and life-threatening type of brain tumor, pose a challenge for segmentation due to the intricate nature of brain structures and unpredictable appearances on brain MRI images.OBJECTIVES: Current methods for brain tumor segmentation mostly rely on deep convolutional neural networks, which suffer from significant loss of feature information during encoding and decoding and the inability to capture tumor contours in detail.METHODS: To address these challenges, this study rethinks the network architecture for MRI brain tumor segmentation. It proposes ARM-Net: an improved method for MRI brain tumor segmentation based on attention mechanisms and residual modules. Firstly, inverted external attention and dilated gated attention are employed in the last two layers of the encoder to enable the network to interact with both lesion areas and global information, facilitating better interaction among the four modalities. Secondly, different numbers of Res-Paths are added in the encoder's first two layers and the decoder's last two layers to effectively mitigate the semantic gap issues caused by traditional skip connections.RESULTS: Experiments on the BraTS 2019 dataset demonstrate that ARM-Net outperforms other similar models in terms of segmentation performance.CONCLUSION: The experiment showed that the ARM-Net model could segment the contour structure of the tumor better than other methods. |
