The circle of Willis (CoW) is a circular arrangement of arteries in the human brain, exhibiting significant anatomical variability. The CoW is extensively studied in relation to neurovascular pathologies, with certain anatomical variants previously linked to ischemic stroke and intracranial aneurysms. In an individual CoW, arteries might be absent (aplasia) or underdeveloped (hypoplasia, diameter < 1 mm).

The circle of Willis (CoW) is a network of cerebral arteries with significant inter-individual anatomical variations. Deep learning has been used to characterize and quantify the status of the CoW in various applications for the diagnosis and treatment of cerebrovascular disease. In medical imaging, the performance of deep learning models is limited by the diversity and size of training datasets.

Traditional guidance for intracranial aneurysm (IA) management is dichotomized by rupture status. Fundamental to ruptured aneurysm management is the detection and treatment of subarachnoid hemorrhage, along with securing the aneurysm by the safest technique. On the other hand, unruptured aneurysms first require a careful assessment of natural history versus treatment risk, including an imaging assessment of aneurysm size, location, and morphology, along with additional evidence-based risk factors such as smoking, hypertension, and family history.

This study concentrates on the segmentation of intracranial aneurysms, a pivotal aspect of diagnosis and treatment planning. We aim to overcome the inherent instance imbalance and morphological variability by introducing a novel morphology and texture loss reweighting approach. Our innovative method involves the incorporation of tailored weights within the loss function of deep neural networks.
