This paper presents the winning solution of task 1 and the third-placed solution of task 3 of the BraTS challenge. The use of automated tools in clinical practice has increased due to the development of more and more sophisticated and reliable algorithms. However, achieving clinical standards and developing tools for real-life scenarios is a major challenge. To this end, BraTS has organised tasks to find the most advanced solutions for specific purposes. In this paper, we propose the use of synthetic data to train state-of-the-art frameworks in order to improve the segmentation of adult gliomas in a post-treatment scenario, and the segmentation of meningioma for radiotherapy planning. Our results suggest that the use of synthetic data leads to more robust algorithms, although the synthetic data generation pipeline is not directly suited to the meningioma task. In task 1, we achieved a DSC of 0.7900, 0.8076, 0.7760, 0.8926, 0.7874, 0.8938 and a HD95 of 35.63, 30.35, 44.58, 16.87, 38.19, 17.95 for ET, NETC, RC, SNFH, TC and WT, respectively and, in task 3, we achieved a DSC of 0.801 and HD95 of 38.26, in the testing phase. The code for these tasks is available at https://github.com/ShadowTwin41/BraTS_2023_2024_solutions.
