| Sumario: | Covid-19 disease has confronted the world with an unprecedented health crisis, faced with its quick spread, the health system is called upon to increase its vigilance. So, it is essential to set up a quick and automated diagnosis that can alleviate pressure on health systems. Many techniques used to diagnose the covid-19 disease, including imaging techniques, like computed tomography (CT). In this paper, we present an automatic method for COVID-19 Lung Infection Segmentation from CT Images, that can be integrated into a decision support system for the diagnosis of covid-19 disease. To achieve this goal, we focused to new techniques based on artificial intelligent concept, in particular the uses of deep convolutional neural network, and we are interested in our study to the most popular architecture used in the medical imaging community based on encoder-decoder models. We use an open access data collection for Artificial Intelligence COVID-19 CT segmentation or classification as dataset, the proposed model implemented on keras framework in python. A short description of model, training, validation and predictions is given, at the end we compare the result with an existing labeled data. We tested our trained model on new images, we obtained for Area under the ROC Curve the value 0.884 from the prediction result compared with manual expert segmentation. Finally, an overview is given for future works, and use of the proposed model into homogeneous framework in a medical imaging context for clinical purpose. |
