Cross‐modality deep learning: Contouring of MRI data from annotated CT data only

The introduced cross-modality learning technique can be of great value for segmentation problems with sparse training data. We anticipate using this method with any nonannotated MRI dataset to generate annotated synthetic MR images of the same type via image style transfer from annotated CT images. Furthermore, as this technique allows for fast adaptation of annotated datasets from one imaging modality to another, it could prove useful for translating between large varieties of MRI contrasts due to differences in imaging protocols within and between institutions.
