Abstract

Magnetic resonance imaging is an essential tool for the identification of neurological problems since it provides relevant information on brain development. The aim of the present work was the detection of neurological alterations in newborns from 4 to 12 months of age by segmentation and analysis of lateral ventricles in magnetic resonance images. For this purpose, an automated deep approach based on U‐net is proposed to segment the cerebral ventricles of the newborn....
