A Combined Fully Convolutional Networks and Deformable Model for Automatic Left Ventricle Segmentation Based on 3D Echocardiography

The structure of the improved FCN. Based on original FCN in [33], we added two streams from the first two pooling layers (pooling 1 and pooling 2) to the final deconvolution layers, and the residual modules are added to every skip stream to improve the ability of feature representation.
