A self-supervised learning strategy for postoperative brain cavity segmentation simulating resections.

We present a self-supervised learning strategy for 3D CNNs using simulated RCs to accurately segment real RCs on postoperative MRI. Our method generalizes well to data from different institutions, pathologies and modalities. Source code, segmentation models and the EPISURG dataset are available at https://github.com/fepegar/resseg-ijcars .
