Abstract: Due to the complexity and diversity of liver tumor images and the difficulty in obtaining the data set of liver tumor images, the rapid and accurate diagnosis of liver tumor diseases faces many challenges, especially the segmentation of liver tumors is the key research content. Generative adversarial network(GAN) is widely used in medical image processing because of its strong superiority in semi-supervised learning. In order to analyze the present situation and future development of liver tumor image segmentation, the segmentation methods of liver tumor image using GAN are studied, the network structure and derivative model of GAN model are introduced, and the application of generative adversarial network in liver tumor image segmentation is mainly summarized and analyzed, including the segmentation method based on improved network structure, improved GAN method based on generator or discriminator and other improved methods based on GAN. Finally, on the basis of the existing research progress, this paper summarizes the application of GAN in liver tumor image segmentation, discusses the challenges that GAN faces in liver tumor image segmentation, and looks forward to its future development.
