Abstract

Acute Cholecystitis is a sudden inflammation of the gallbladder that affects hundreds of thousands of people per year. Though a common condition, methods of diagnosis still underperform modern standards of medicine. As such, there has been a demand to incorporate new innovations in the diagnostic process. In this study, a modified U-Net was trained to automatically segment gallbladder ultrasound images.
