Diabetic Foot Ulcer Grand Challenge 2022 Summary
This addresses the problem of medical image segmentation for diabetic foot ulcers, but it is incremental as it builds on previous challenges.
The paper tackled diabetic foot ulcer segmentation by providing an overview of the Diabetic Foot Ulcer Challenge 2022, which included 4000 images and resulted in a best-performing modified HarDNet-MSEG achieving a Dice score of 0.7287.
The Diabetic Foot Ulcer Challenge 2022 focused on the task of diabetic foot ulcer segmentation, based on the work completed in previous DFU challenges. The challenge provided 4000 images of full-view foot ulcer images together with corresponding delineation of ulcer regions. This paper provides an overview of the challenge, a summary of the methods proposed by the challenge participants, the results obtained from each technique, and a comparison of the challenge results. The best-performing network was a modified HarDNet-MSEG, with a Dice score of 0.7287.
