Abstract
Provided are systems and methods for analyzing medical images to localize body regions using deep learning techniques. A combination of convolutional neural network (CNN) and a recurrent neural network (RNN) can be applied to medical images, identifying axial slices of a body region. In accordance with embodiments, boundaries, e.g., superior and inferior boundaries of various body regions in computed tomography images can be automatically demarcated.
