Hello Reader,
Have you ever needed to apply data augmentation to 3D volumes?
Here's a quick tutorial on how to do so ↓
In order to train a neural network, a significant amount of data is required to obtain a well performing and robust model that can work with the majority of cases (a generalizable model). However, it is not always possible to obtain a large amount of natural data in any task, particularly in healthcare projects. One input in 3D medical imaging is a single patient with multiple slices, so it's difficult to collect a large dataset of patients.
Data augmentation allows you to start from a small dataset, apply different transformations on it in order to obtain a larger dataset with more variety. This is done by applying transformations such as: left-right shift, rotation, changing contrast, etc.
Here's a code snippet on how to apply data augmentation on 3D volumes using MONAI and Python.
