By reducing and combining feature map channels, not only the model size and inference time are greatly reduced, but also cross-channel features are effectively fused via convolusion, which makes VB-Net more applicable to deal with large 3D volumetric data than traditional V-Net. Training samples with detailed delineation of each infection region are required for the proposed VB-Net. However, it is a labor-intensive work for radiologists to annotate hundreds of COVID-19 CT scans. To quantitatively evaluate the accuracy of segmentation and measurement, infection regions on 300 CT scans of 300 COVID-19 patients were manually contoured by two radiologists (W.S. and F.S., with 12 and 19 years of experience in chest radiology, respectively) to serve as the reference standard. ./cache/cord-159554-50077dgk.txt ./txt/cord-159554-50077dgk.txt
