Abstract
Segmentation of Lung is the vital first step in radiologic diagnosis of lung cancer. In this work, we present a deep learning based automated technique that overcomes various shortcomings of traditional lung segmentation and explores the role of adding “explainability” to deep learning models so that the trust can be built on these models. Our approach shows better generalization across different scanner settings, vendors and the slice thickness. In addition, there is no initialization of the seed point making it complete automated without manual intervention. The dice score of 0.98 is achieved for lung segmentation on an independent data set of non-small cell lung cancer.
