Vestibular schwannomas (VS) require long-term tracking for treatment decisions and outcome assessment. This study aims to develop a WEb-Accessible comprehensiVE (WEAVE) platform that combines AI-driven segmentation with a user-friendly interface to enable longitudinal volume tracking for disease assessment, planning, and monitoring.
WEAVE offers a potentially valuable workflow tool for clinicians monitoring vestibular schwannoma growth over time; practical adoption will depend on validation accuracy and integration into existing imaging workflows.
Automated, accessible volumetric tumor tracking could standardize vestibular schwannoma management across centers and reduce variability in treatment decision-making driven by inconsistent manual measurement.
- 01WEAVE is a web-accessible platform for automatic MRI-based segmentation and volume tracking of vestibular schwannoma.
- 02Published in Neuro-Oncology Advances alongside the companion volumetry study (PMID 42325603).
- 03Designed to support longitudinal treatment decision-making without requiring specialized local software.
- 04Automatic segmentation reduces reliance on time-consuming manual tumor measurement.
- 05Tool accessibility could improve consistency in surveillance protocols across smaller centers.
WEAVE enables automatic vestibular schwannoma segmentation and longitudinal volumetric tracking via a web-accessible platform.
