we successfully segmented IAs from dual inputs (TOF-MRA and T1-VISTA) using the hyperdense net with higher accuracy than a single input.
Figure 2. Four IA segmentation examples.
Each row represents a patient in the test set. Six columns from left to right
represent TOF-MRA, T1-VISTA, ground truth (GT), segmentation from the model
with dual inputs, segmentation from the model with TOF-MRA alone and
segmentation from the model with T1-VISTA alone.

across different combinations of image inputs: dual inputs, TOF-MRA alone and
T1-VISTA alone. (A) Sørensen–Dice coefficient (DSC); (B) sensitivity; (C) positive
predictive value (PPV); and (D) specificity. Paired Student’s t-tests were
performed with the notation *: P < 0.05; **: P < 0.005; ***: P <
0.0005.
