1725 Fetal Brain (FeTA) “This is a challenging task to solve,” Roxane asserts. “ What we have here is a highly variable dataset, particularly in terms of the pathological cases, and in clinical settings we must be able to segment these highly pathological “It controls just about everything we do, including our motor control and our breathing. We want to assess its growth patterns as early as possible so that if surgical or other interventions are needed, they can happen at the right time, leading to better outcomes for the children concerned.” This is not a typical segmentation challenge because the fetal brain changes drastically throughout gestation. The challenge introduces a dataset of around 70 cases – with more to be added by the time it is released – aged between 20 to 33 weeks. The training set aims to be balanced across that gestational age range as the structural changes that occur for all fetuses within that time frame are vast.
