Image segmentation plays a crucial role in medical image analysis, facilitating the identification and characterization of various pathologies. During the COVID-19 pandemic, this technique has proven valuable for detecting and assessing the severity of infection. Recent advancements in deep learning, particularly convolutional neural networks (CNNs), have significantly enhanced the efficacy of image segmentation. Numerous CNN-based architectures have been proposed in the literature, with MultiResUNet emerging as a promising approach. This study investigates the application of the MultiResUNet architecture for segmenting regions of COVID-19 infection within patient lung CT images. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of MultiResUNet, achieving an average Dice score of 73.10%.
