Referring to Fig. 2, in step S100, deformable part model (DPM) is based on from ultrasound by candidate region detection device 10 Image detection includes at least one candidate region of tumour.
Particularly, as it is known by the man skilled in the art, in DPM method, there are the more rough root filters of a precision Wave device and the more fine component filter of multiple precision, are accordingly, there are a root and multiple components, wherein p0Refer to Show and is intended to Inertial manifolds for the root of detected entire object (for example, whole region where tumour), and p1、p2、…、pn It indicates to be intended to subtly cover by each different components of detected object, correspondingly, candidate region detection device 10 can lead to Equation (1) is crossed to calculate the DPM of each candidate region detection score value:
From equation (1) as can be seen that the DPM of candidate region detects score value score (p0,p1,...,pn) can mainly be expressed Appearance score for root filter/component filter in respective position(wherein, Fi(pi) be root and The filter of all parts responds, Gi(pi) be root and all parts feature) with deformatter (for indicating all parts Deviate cost in the position for deviateing its anchor station)(wherein, xiAnd yiIndicate the pixel position of all parts Set) between difference on this basis can be by the way that by real value offset term b(, wherein, b can be determined by testing) be added to institute Difference is stated to obtain final DPM and detect score value.
It is preferred that can be improved to above-mentioned DPM method, to be more in line with the growth characteristics of tumour itself.? That is since tumour itself comes in every shape and aspect ratio change is larger, and root template number corresponding with root filter in DPM Less (usually 2 or 3), therefore, it is very easy to can't detect the tumour of different the ratio of width to height.For above situation, according to this hair The candidate region detection device 10 of bright exemplary embodiment can be by changing the ratio of width to height of the root template in DMP come from ultrasound image Detection includes at least one candidate region of tumour.
Particularly, it is being directed to root p0Calculate F0(p0) and G0(p0) dot product when, can be according to equation (2) by the dot product As a result the maximum value being determined as in specific range of deflection:
From equation (2) as can be seen that by by F0(p0) and G0(p0) dot product be determined as within the scope of predetermined migration (its In, τ indicates range of deflection, and the specific value that different applications determine τ can be directed to according to experiment) maximum point product value so that Root template in DMP is no longer limited by fixed value, and can carry out a degree of adjustment within a predetermined range, to facilitate needle The tumour of various the ratio of width to height is effectively detected.
