A Deep-Learning Approach to Spleen Volume Estimation in Patients with Gaucher Disease.

The enlargement of the liver and spleen (hepatosplenomegaly) is a common manifestation of Gaucher disease (GD). An accurate estimation of the liver and spleen volumes in patients with GD, using imaging tools such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), is crucial for the baseline assessment and monitoring of the response to treatment. A commonly used method in clinical practice to estimate the spleen volume is the employment of a formula that uses the measurements of the craniocaudal length, diameter, and thickness of the spleen in MRI.
