Fully convolutional networks for automated segmentation of abdominal adipose tissue depots in multicenter water–fat MRI

An approach for the automated segmentation of visceral adipose tissue (VAT) and subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) in multicenter water–fat MRI scans of the abdomen was investigated, using 2 different neural network architectures.
