Lung cancer has the highest mortality rate. Its diagnosis and treatment analysis depends upon the accurate segmentation of the tumor. It becomes tedious if done manually as radiologists are overburdened with numerous medical imaging tests due to the increase in cancer patients and the COVID pandemic.

Automatic liver and tumor segmentation are essential steps to take decisive action in hepatic disease detection, deciding therapeutic planning, and post-treatment assessment. The computed tomography (CT) scan has become the choice of medical experts to diagnose hepatic anomalies. However, due to advancements in CT image acquisition protocol, CT scan data is growing and manual delineation of the liver and tumor from the CT volume becomes cumbersome and tedious for medical experts.

Automatic liver and tumor segmentation play a significant role in clinical interpretation and treatment planning of hepatic diseases. To segment liver and tumor manually from the hundreds of computed tomography (CT) images is tedious and labor-intensive; thus, segmentation becomes expert dependent. In this paper, we proposed the multi-scale approach to improve the receptive field of Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) by representing multi-scale features that extract global and local features at a more granular level.
