Detailed Description
Exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. While exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that the present disclosure may be embodied in various forms and should not be limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the scope of the disclosure to those skilled in the art.
As shown in fig. 1, a method for determining a development grade of a hand carpal bone according to an embodiment of the present invention may include:
and S100, obtaining a characteristic diagram of the first hand bone image.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 2, the first hand skeleton image may be a hand skeleton image obtained by X-ray penetrating irradiation. The scale may be the image size of the image at a certain resolution. The first hand bone image may have a scale of an X-ray image output from an X-ray machine. For example, the resolution corresponding to the scale of the first hand bone image output by the X-ray machine may be 512 × 512. Alternatively, the first hand bone image may be a left hand bone image. The first hand bone image may display a part or all of the carpal bones including the scaphoid, the lunate, the trigonal, the trapezium, the capitate, and the hamate.
Optionally, as shown in fig. 3, in another hand carpal development level determining method provided in the embodiment of the present invention, step S100 may include:
and S110, obtaining initial images of the first hand bone image under a plurality of different scales.
According to the embodiment of the invention, the initial image of the first hand bone image can be obtained through the feature extraction network. The feature extraction network may include convolutional neural networks including Resnext-50, Resnext-101, Resnext-152, and Densenet. For example, with Resnext-50, embodiments of the present invention may obtain initial maps of 1/32, 1/16, 1/8, and 1/4 at the scale of the first hand bone image, respectively. The method and the device can obtain the image characteristics of the same characteristic point of the first hand bone image under different scales. For example, in the initial images of 1/32, 1/16, 1/8 and 1/4, which are scales of the first hand bone image, respectively, the image features of the same feature point in the initial images at four scales can be obtained. Optionally, in the embodiment of the present invention, the first hand bone image may meet the requirement of the feature extraction network by means of black margin filling, so as to prevent the feature extraction network from scaling and deforming the first hand bone image that does not meet the requirement of the scale, thereby ensuring correct implementation of the technical solution of the embodiment of the present invention.
And S120, fusing the initial images under the different scales to obtain a characteristic image.
Specifically, in the embodiment of the present invention, after feature extraction is performed on a plurality of initial images at different scales through an image feature extraction network, information such as edges, shapes, contours, local features, and the like is comprehensively processed to obtain a feature image. The image feature extraction network may include: unet, full convolution network FCN (full volumetric Networks), Panoptic FPN (panoramic Feature Pyramid Networks), and SegNet, among others. For example, based on the above example of obtaining the initial map of the first hand bone image at four scales through resenxt-50, the embodiment of the present invention may fuse the four initial maps of 1/32, 1/16, 1/8 and 1/4, which are scales of the first hand bone image, into one feature map through Panoptic FPN.
Optionally, based on the method shown in fig. 3, as shown in fig. 4, in another hand carpal development level determining method provided in the embodiment of the present invention, step S120 may include:
s121, performing upsampling on the plurality of initial images under different scales according to the first upsampling parameter to obtain a fourth number of matrix images, wherein the scales of the fourth number of matrix images are the same.
Specifically, in the embodiment of the present invention, a plurality of initial graphs under different scales may be upsampled according to different first upsampling parameters, so as to obtain a fourth number of matrix graphs. Wherein the fourth number is related to the number of initial graphs. For example, after the initial maps at four different scales are upsampled according to different first upsampling parameters, four matrix maps are obtained.
The first upsampling parameter may be determined according to a scale of the initial map. For ease of understanding, the description is made herein by way of example: in the embodiment of the present invention, if it is necessary to upsample four initial maps 1/32, 1/16, 1/8 and 1/4, which have respective dimensions of the first hand bone image, according to different first upsampling parameters, the initial map 1/32, which has the dimensions of the first hand bone image, may be upsampled according to the first upsampling parameters of 3 convolution products and 2 × bilinear, the obtained matrix map has the dimensions of 1/4 the first hand bone image, the initial map 1/16, which has the dimensions of the first hand bone image, may be upsampled according to the first upsampling parameters of 2 convolution products and 2 × bilinear, the obtained matrix map has the dimensions of 1/4 the dimensions of the first hand bone image, and the initial map 1/8, which has the dimensions of the first hand bone image, may be upsampled according to the first upsampling parameters of 1 convolution product and 2 × bilinear Sampling, wherein the obtained matrix map has the scale of 1/4 of the scale of the first hand bone image, the initial map of 1/4 having the scale of the first hand bone image can be upsampled according to the first upsampling parameter of 0 convolution and 2 x bilinear, the obtained matrix map has the scale of 1/4 of the scale of the first hand bone image, the four matrix maps have the same scale, and the obtained matrix maps are all 1/4 of the scale of the first hand bone image.
And S122, performing element summation on the matrix diagrams of the fourth quantity to obtain element diagrams.
In particular, the element summation may be adding numbers at the same position in the fourth number of matrix images. The embodiment of the invention can take the result of element summation of the fourth number of matrix diagrams as the element diagram. For ease of understanding, this is illustrated herein in connection with FIG. 5: if the fourth number of matrix maps are fig. 5(a) and 5(b), respectively, then the numbers at the same positions of fig. 5(a) and 5(b) are added, and the resulting elemental map can be as shown in fig. 5 (c). It is noted that the dimensions of the element map are the same as the dimensions of the matrix map. For ease of understanding, the matrix map and the element map shown in fig. 5 are both 3 × 3 in scale, and in practice, the element map may be 1/4 in scale of the first hand bone image.
And S123, performing upsampling on the element diagram according to the second upsampling parameter to obtain a characteristic diagram.
Specifically, the second upsampling parameter may be determined according to a scale of the first hand bone image and a scale of the elemental map. For example, when the scale of the element map is 1/4 of the scale of the first hand bone image, the embodiment of the present invention may perform upsampling on the element map according to the second upsampling parameter, which is 1 convolution and 4 × bilinear, to obtain the feature map with the same scale as the first hand bone image.
S200, inputting the feature map into a preset hand carpal development level determination model, and obtaining a position probability map of a hand carpal bone point and a development level probability map of the hand carpal bone point output by the hand carpal development level determination model.
The preset hand carpal development level determination model can be a convolutional neural network model. The preset hand carpal development level determining model can use the hand skeleton image fusion feature map marked with the hand carpal site position and the hand carpal site development level to perform machine learning, so as to learn the position of the hand carpal site and the image features of the development level of the hand carpal site. The embodiment of the invention can obtain a preset hand carpal development level determination model according to the method.
As shown in fig. 6, a method for obtaining a hand carpal development level determination model according to an embodiment of the present invention may include:
s010, obtaining a training initial image of at least one hand skeleton training image under multiple scales, wherein the hand skeleton training image is marked with a hand carpal site position and a hand carpal site growing grade;
s020, fusing the training initial images under the multiple scales to obtain a training characteristic image;
s030, performing machine learning according to the training characteristic diagram to obtain a hand carpal development level determination model, wherein the hand carpal development level determination model has the following input: and (3) obtaining training characteristic graphs by fusing initial graphs under multiple scales, wherein the output of the hand carpal development level determination model is as follows: a position probability map of the wrist bone point of the hand and a development level probability map of the wrist bone point of the hand.
Specifically, the hand carpal development level determination model performs machine learning on the training feature map, which may be the machine learning on the image features of the positions of the hand carpal points marked in the training feature map of the hand skeletal image and the hand carpal point development levels, and the image features may include image geometric features and gray value distribution. In actual use, the hand carpal development level determination model can output a position probability map of each hand carpal bone point and a development level probability map of each hand carpal bone point corresponding to the fusion feature map of the first hand skeletal image according to the hand carpal bone point obtained by machine learning and the image feature of the position of the hand carpal bone point development level.
Optionally, based on the method shown in fig. 1, as shown in fig. 7, in another hand carpal development level determining method provided in the embodiment of the present invention, step S200 may include:
s210, inputting the feature map into a preset hand carpal development level determination model, so that the preset hand carpal development level determination model convolves the feature map according to a preset first convolution parameter to obtain a position probability map of a first number of hand carpal points, and convolving the feature map according to a preset second convolution parameter to obtain a development level probability map of a second number of hand carpal points.
In particular, the first convolution parameters may include a convolution kernel size and a number of output channels. The first number is equal to the number of output channels in the first convolution parameter. For example, if the number of output channels in the first convolution parameter is 5, the hand carpal development level determination model convolves the feature map according to the first convolution parameter, and the first number of the position probability maps of the obtained hand carpal points is 5.
Normally, 7 carpal bones can be shown in the first hand bone image, and therefore, in an alternative embodiment of the invention, the first number is 7, and the first volume parameter comprises: the convolution kernel size is 3 × 3 and the number of output channels is 7.
The position probability maps of each hand wrist bone point in the position probability maps of the hand wrist bone points of the first number correspond to one hand wrist bone point, and the hand wrist bone points corresponding to the position probability maps of the hand wrist bone points are different.
Specifically, the position probability map of each hand wrist bone point in the position probability maps of the first number of hand wrist bone points is only a probability prediction of one hand wrist bone point at each position in the first hand bone image, wherein each position in the first hand bone image may be each pixel point in the first hand bone image. Therefore, when the first number is 7, the position probability maps of 7 hand wrist bone points can respectively predict the probability of 7 hand wrist bone points at each position in the first hand bone image. For example, a position probability map of a corresponding hand wrist bone point in the first hand bone image may be as shown in fig. 8, where a probability at each position in the position probability map is a probability that the position is the hand wrist bone point, and the sum of the probabilities at each position in the position probability map is equal to 1. It should be noted that, for the convenience of understanding, the scale of the position probability map shown in fig. 8 is 5 × 5, and in actual use, the scale of the position probability map of the wrist bone point of the hand may be the same as that of the first hand bone image.
Optionally, in the embodiment of the present invention, the process of convolving the feature map by the preset hand carpal development level determination model according to a preset first convolution parameter to obtain a position probability map of a first number of hand carpal points may include:
convolving the feature map according to a preset first convolution parameter by the preset hand carpal development level determining model to obtain a position information map of a first number of hand carpal points;
and normalizing the position information maps of the first number of hand wrist bone points to obtain a position probability map of the first number of hand wrist bone points.
Optionally, in the embodiment of the present invention, the position information map of the first number of hand wrist bone points may be normalized through a softmax function, so as to obtain the position probability map of the first number of hand wrist bone points.
The second convolution parameters may include convolution kernel size and number of output channels in embodiments of the present invention. The second number is equal to the number of output channels in the second convolution parameter. For example, if the number of output channels in the second convolution parameter is 8, the hand carpal development level determination model convolves the fusion feature map according to the second convolution parameter, and the second number of the development level probability maps of the obtained hand carpal points is 8.
Normally, 7 carpal bones can be shown in the first hand bone image. In the embodiment of the invention, the evaluation of the development grade of the CARPAL bones can be carried out by using the evaluation of the development grade of the CARPAL bones in the TW3-CARPAL bone age evaluation standard. TW3-CARPAL bone age evaluation criteria Each CARPAL bone can be divided into nine developmental levels, A-I. Therefore, in an alternative embodiment of the present invention, the second number is 63, and the second convolution parameter may include: the convolution kernel size is 3 × 3 and the number of output channels is 63. It will be appreciated that the second number may be equal to the product of the number of carpal development levels multiplied by the number of carpal bones in the first hand bone image. Assuming that each carpal bone can be divided into five levels according to other bone age evaluation criteria, the second number may be 35.
