Abstract

A revolutionary change has been brought in by the integration of deep learningdeep learning into medical picture segmentation, making anatomical features and diseased areas identification accurate and automated. Here, in this book chapter, authors comprehensively describe the history of various segmentation methods; also, the focus is on the shift from traditional model-based methods to modern deep learning approaches. The discussion also has updates and expansions that address optimization in clinical decision-making and diagnostic imaging with machine learning techniques, such as the hybrid model, generative adversarial networks, and integration of multimodal imagingmultimodal imaging. As always the case with explorative studies, the chapter also looks at practical implementations of deep learning models in clinical environments, by discussing challenges and solutions relating to interpretability, transferability, and regulation. Special emphasis has been placed on how accurate segmentation supports the concept of PPMT by recognizing precision oncology and individualized therapy schedules. The future trends include implementing inter alia, processing in real time, the ability to work with multiomics data, and improvement of a strong algorithm. This work showcases how segmentation techniques developed through deep learning transform medical practice by improving patients’ experience, operation planning, and diagnosticsdiagnostics.
