Enhancing deep learning methods for brain metastasis detection through cross-technique annotations on SPACE MRI by Tassilo Wald, Benjamin Hamm, Julius C. Holzschuh, Rami El Shafie, Andreas Kudak, Balint Kovacs, Irada Pflüger, Bastian von Nettelbladt, Constantin Ulrich, Michael Anton Baumgartner, Philipp Vollmuth, Jürgen Debus, Klaus H. Maier-Hein, Thomas Welzel

“…We hypothesize that this better conspicuity leads to high-quality annotation (HAQ), enhancing deep learning (DL) algorithm detection of BMs on MPRAGE images. Methods Retrospective contrast-enhanced (gadobutrol 0.1 mmol/kg) SPACE and MPRAGE data of 157 patients with BM were used, either annotated on MPRAGE resulting in normal annotation quality (NAQ) or on coregistered SPACE resulting in HAQ. …”
