Abstract

Cerebral microbleeds are small, dark, round lesions that can be visualised on T2*-weighted MRI or other sequences sensitive to susceptibility effects. In this work, we propose a multi-stage approach to both microbleed detection and segmentation. First, possible microbleed locations are detected with a Mask R-CNN technique. Second, at each possible microbleed location, a simple U-Net performs the final segmentation. This work used the 72 subjects as training data provided by the "Where is VALDO?" challenge of MICCAI 2021.
