Title
Ultrasonic breast tumor extraction based on adversarial mechanism and active contour
Abstract
•Propose an ultrasonic breast tumor segmentation network combining antagonism mechanism and contour optimization.•Using active contour modules to highlight ultrasound tumor edges, forming a bi-directional optimization with a Deformed U-Net.•Antagonism mechanism is adopted to improve the precision of segmentation network.•The loss of discriminator, Deformed U-net and active contour module is used for collaborative optimization of the whole network.•The result of this method is better than that of other segmentation networks of breast lesions.
