Deep Learning-Based Segmentation of Peritoneal Cancer Index Regions from CT Imaging

arXiv:2604.27697v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Peritoneal metastases are currently assessed using diagnostic laparoscopy to determine Sugarbaker's Peritoneal Cancer Index (sPCI), which works by dividing the abdomen into 13 regions and scoring each region based on tumor size. A recent consensus study defined 3D regions to facilitate a radiological PCI (rPCI), providing standardized anatomical regions for imaging-based assessment. Despite its clinical value, sPCI is invasive and lacks a standar
