Multi-organ segmentation of research cohorts compared to clinical imaging archives. Scans in research cohorts are well- controlled and have been shown to allow for effective segmentation, whereas clinical scans display wide variability. Clinical scans display tumors, liver disease, interventions, etc., which make automatic multi-organ segmentation challenging

Examples of segmentations generated by the baseline algorithm. A. An inlier, where the algorithm correctly predicted larger organs, like the liver (on the left side of image in purple) and spleen (on the right side of image in red- pink) and suggested mostly accurate areas of smaller organs. B. An outlier (global failure), where the liver (purple) and spleen (red-pink) were largely correct but major inconsistencies are visible with other organs.
