Calcium scoring in CTs of the chest

Try out the algorithm on Grand-Challenge

This repository contains code for calcium scoring in chest CT scans using deep convolutional neural networks.

The repository contains a jupyter notebook as well as standalone python code (in the subfolder src). The notebook can be used to train and test the networks.

Steps required to train and test the method:

  • Create a folder on a linux server with GPU with the following structure:
    • images (folder with images)
    • annotations (folder with corresponding annotations)
    • dataset.csv (see example file)
  • Create an empty scratch directory (for any kind of output)
  • Build the docker image: docker build -t calcium-scoring .
  • Run the docker image:
    docker run --runtime=nvidia -e NVIDIA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 -p 8888:8888 --rm -it \
        -v /location/of/data/:/home/user/input/:ro \
        -v /location/of/scratch/:/home/user/scratch/:rw \
        calcium-scoring
    
  • Now use the displayed token to open the notebook in a browser and then open calcium_scoring_with_convnets.
