Background:

Accurate segmentation of anatomical structures in magnetic resonance (MR) images is crucial for computer-aided clinical tasks.
Traditional codec networks struggle with edge segmentation accuracy, target recognition, and preserving detailed information.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop and optimize improved semantic segmentation models for MR image analysis.
To enhance the accuracy and robustness of anatomical structure segmentation.

Main Methods:

Proposed novel convolution modules for feature extraction.
Integrated multi-path methods to capture richer edge details.
Utilized dense networks for improved feature fusion across different levels.

Main Results:

Achieved high performance metrics: Accuracy (0.9855), Dice coefficient (0.9185), and Jaccard index (0.8507).
Demonstrated significant improvements over traditional methods, with metric increases of 1.0%, 4.0%, and 6.1% respectively.
Boundary F1-Score reached 0.9124, indicating superior segmentation of smaller targets and smoother edges.

Conclusions:

The proposed models significantly outperform traditional methods in MR image segmentation.
The optimized networks provide more key information, leading to superior segmentation performance and clinical utility.
