Background:

Accurate brain tissue segmentation is crucial for clinical diagnosis and research.
Manual segmentation is time-consuming and prone to variability.
Existing automated methods struggle with data variability from diverse MRI acquisition parameters and labeling inaccuracies.

Purpose of the Study:

To introduce nnSegNeXt, an innovative segmentation architecture designed to overcome limitations of current automated brain MRI segmentation tools.
To address challenges related to missing or inaccurate annotations in medical imaging datasets.
To improve the accuracy and generalizability of automated brain tissue segmentation.

Main Methods:

Developed nnSegNeXt, a novel segmentation architecture incorporating quality assessment principles.
Integrated a 3D convolutional attention mechanism with multiscale convolutional features for enhanced contextual information encoding.
Evaluated the model on four multi-site T1-weighted MRI datasets with diverse acquisition parameters and patient populations.

Main Results:

nnSegNeXt achieved superior performance compared to nnUNet on HCP, SALD, and IXI datasets, with Dice coefficients of 0.992, 0.987, and 0.989, respectively.
Demonstrated strong generalizability across four distinct projects, yielding Dice coefficients between 0.967 and 0.983.
Ablation studies confirmed the effectiveness of the proposed architectural components.

Conclusions:

nnSegNeXt represents a significant advancement in automated brain tissue segmentation.
The architecture effectively handles data variability and annotation challenges.
nnSegNeXt shows potential to substantially enhance clinical workflows in brain imaging analysis.
