Deep learning methods for semi-automatic evaluation of the white fiber degradation in the TIA model and automatic infarct lesion segmentation, in the stroke model. In (A), we utilized a combination of manual segmentation of caudate putamen and automatic segmentation of white matter fibers via white top-hat transform. The thickness of the fibers was evaluated using the software VG Studio MAX 3.4 (VOLUME GRAPHICS GmbH, Heidelberg, Germany). In (B), an automatic deep learning-based segmentation workflow is proposed for the segmentation of the lesion penumbra and core. (C) The convolutional neural network (CNN) is utilized for automatic lesion detection.
