Improvement in Disease Diagnosis in Computed Tomography Images by Correlating Organ Volumes with Disease Occurrences in Humans

  • In this paper, we investigate the influence of different disease groups on the size of different 1 anatomical structures. To this end, we first modify and improve an existing anatomical segmentation 2 model. Then, we use this model to segment 104 anatomical structures from computed tomography 3 (CT) scans and compute their volumes from the segmentation. After correlating the results with each 4 other, we find no new significant correlations. After correlating the volume data with known diseases 5 for each case, we find two weak correlations, one of which has not been described before and for 6 which we present a possible explanation.
