A-volume: automatically segmented region volumes with the 3D U-Net model. M-volume: manually segmented volume. Dice score; (overlapping 3D spaces) × 2/total area. The total area is defined as the sum of the ground truth image segmentation area (manually segmented) and the predicted area using the 3D U-Net model. r; Pearson’s correlation coefficient, to assess the correlations between volumes segmented manually and those segmented automatically by the 3D U-Net model. P-A; probability value of A-volume in Hakim disease vs. normal volunteer. P-M; probability value of M-volume in Hakim disease vs. normal volunteer.
