Abstract

Systems and articles of manufacture for image segmentation are provided herein, and include creating an anatomical model from training data comprising one or more imaging modalities, generating one or more simulated images in a target modality based on the anatomical model and one or more principles of physics pertaining to image contrast generation, and comparing the one or more simulated images to an unlabeled input image of a given imaging modality to determine a simulated image of the one or more simulated images to represent the unlabeled input image.
