TotalSegmentator: Robust Segmentation of 104 Anatomic Structures in CT Images.

To present a deep learning segmentation model that can automatically and robustly segment all major anatomic structures on body CT images. In this retrospective study, 1204 CT examinations (from 2012, 2016, and 2020) were used to segment 104 anatomic structures (27 organs, 59 bones, 10 muscles, and eight vessels) relevant for use cases such as organ volumetry, disease characterization, and surgical or radiation therapy planning. The CT images were randomly sampled from routine clinical studies and thus represent a real-world dataset (different ages, abnormalities, scanners, body parts, sequences, and sites). The authors trained an nnU-Net segmentation algorithm on this dataset and calculated Dice similarity coefficients to evaluate the model's performance. The trained algorithm was applied to a second dataset of 4004 whole-body CT examinations to investigate age-dependent volume and attenuation changes. The proposed model showed a high Dice score (0.943) on the test set, which included a wide range of clinical data with major abnormalities. The model significantly outperformed another publicly available segmentation model on a separate dataset (Dice score, 0.932 vs 0.871; The developed model enables robust and accurate segmentation of 104 anatomic structures. The annotated dataset (
