Abstract: A method and apparatus for automated liver segmentation in a 3D medical image of a patient is disclosed. A 3D medical image, such as a 3D computed tomography (CT) volume, of a patient is received. The 3D medical image of the patient is input to a trained deep image-to-image network. The trained deep image-to-image network is trained in an adversarial network together with a discriminative network that distinguishes between predicted liver segmentation masks generated by the deep image-to-image network from input training volumes and ground truth liver segmentation masks. A liver segmentation mask defining a segmented liver region in the 3D medical image of the patient is generated using the trained deep image-to-image network.
