MAGNET: A Modality-Agnostic Network for 3d Medical Image Segmentation.

In this paper, we proposed MAGNET, a novel modality-agnostic network for 3D medical image segmentation. Different from existing learning methods, MAGNET is specifically designed to handle real medical situations where multiple modalities/sequences are available during model training, but fewer ones are available or used at time of clinical practice. Our results on multiple datasets show that MAGNET trained on multi-modality data has the unique ability to perform predictions using any subset of training imaging modalities. It outperforms individually trained uni-modality models while can further boost performance when more modalities are available at testing.
