Description

A kind of respiratory movement of the diffusion-weighted Abdominal MRI imaging of more b values automatically corrects Method
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of technical field of image processing more particularly to a kind of more diffusion-weighted Abdominal MRIs of b value at The full-automatic bearing calibration of the respiratory movement of picture.
Background technique
Diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) can be widely used in non-with the diffusion motion of quantitative response hydrone Invasive renal functional evaluation.Based on the two fingers number computation model of inhomogenous movement (IVIM) theory in vivo, hypothesis is more nearly Moisture movement state in living tissue is able to reflect the local diffusion of true property and microcirculatory perfusion.In actual imaging, DWI for example breathes molecular motion, mass motion and physiological movement very sensitive.Wherein, kidney caused by respiratory movement It deviates up to 5-10mm, this moving displacement occurred at different acquisition time point can generate huge mistake in estimation function parameter Difference.
Currently, clinically solving the problems, such as that the main means of respiration artefacts are that patient is allowed to feel suffocated in scanning.This is to the elderly And weak patient is greatly to challenge.Simultaneously as clinically used DWI imaging sequence be single-shot echo planar at Picture needs to shorten echo train length as far as possible, this is just for magnetic susceptibility, the chemical shift etc. for inhibiting the acquisition strategies may cause Cause clinical DWI image that there is lower resolution ratio.Another sweeping scheme be using respiration gate control in the case where freely breathing into Row acquisition.However, gate method only carries out data acquisition under specific time window, scan efficiency is caused to decline.Importantly, If patient respiration mode is irregular or breathing zone placement position is inaccurate, it will obtain the breath signal of mistake, lead to figure Moving displacement occurs for specific imaging position as in, brings image quality decrease, influences to diagnose.
To solve the above-mentioned problems, forefathers propose the registration Algorithm of some post-processings.However, it may generally be desirable to manually participate in Registration selecting kidney position or directly carrying out more b value images to entire image.Therefore, waste of manpower and time, and match Quasi- imaging accuracy is low.Therefore, the good more diffusion-weighted figures of b value of full automatic kidney of a kind of strong robustness, registration effect are needed As movement whole school's correction method.
Summary of the invention
It is an object of the invention to be directed to the prior art, a kind of more diffusion-weighted Abdominal MRIs of b value are proposed The full-automatic bearing calibration of the respiratory movement of imaging.
To achieve the goals above, the method for the invention mainly comprises the steps of:
1) diffusion-weighted Abdominal MRI image I0 progress internal organs region corresponding to each b value is divided automatically is corresponded to Image I1;Wherein b value needs to choose 3-10 different b values, and wherein needs b=0s/mm2;And region segmentation method The U-NET neural network model obtained using supervised learning carries out abdominal organs region to the image I0 of all difference b values Automatic segmentation, the image series I1 after obtaining region segmentation.
2) it is reference with the image of b=0s/mm2 after dividing automatically, the image I1 after other all b value image segmentations is pressed According to being reference with the image of b=0s/mm2, using golden (Pyramid Lucas-Kanade) algorithm of pyramid Lucas to region Image series I1 after segmentation is registrated, the image I2 after respectively obtaining respiratory movement correction.
3) it is based on I2, the true property diffusion coefficient (D) after being corrected by IVIM models fitting is perfused score (f) and false Property diffusion coefficient (D*) distribution map.
In conclusion the invention has the following beneficial effects:
The present invention is that the method proposed has the advantages that high degree of automation, application cost are low etc., solve current doctor and exist Needed when calculating IVIM model parameter manually circle take the profile of kidney, caused by the increase of human cost and the consuming of time.
Detailed description of the invention
Fig. 1 is overall flow figure of the invention;
Fig. 2 is the map figure after the present invention is fitted by IVIM model data;
Specific embodiment
The present invention will be described below by way of specific embodiments, but the present invention is not limited thereto.
The full-automatic bearing calibration of respiratory movement of the diffusion-weighted Abdominal MRI imaging of a kind of more b values as shown in Figure 1, specifically Processing step is as follows:
1) data carried out to subject's renal tract under freely breathing acquire, using b value: 0,10,20,50,100, The sequence of 180,300,420,550 and 700s/mm2.
2) kidney segmentation is carried out using U-NET.U-NET network is made of 23 convolutional layers altogether, shrinks net in the network Network and expansion network are the relationships mutually mapped.The work that network is mainly responsible for down-sampling is shunk, extracts high dimensional feature information, often Down-sampling includes the convolution operation of two 3x3 and the pondization operation of a 2x2, and using amendment linear unit as sharp Function living.Expansion network is mainly responsible for the work of up-sampling, and up-sampling includes the convolution operation of two 3x3 each time, using repairing Linear positive unit is as activation primitive.In up-sampling operation, by the contraction network of output feature and phase mapping each time Feature merges, the boundary information lost among completion.Finally, the feature that the convolution operation that 1x1 is added will be obtained before Classification belonging to being mapped to is above.According to the profile of the U-NET kidney being partitioned into, kidney is cut out from original image.
3) collected data are divided into 3 classes by the size of one-dimensional sequence according to value.Every matroid is resolved into multiple dimensioned The sum of block low-rank matrix, and by the sum of multiple dimensioned piece of low-rank matrix minimum as constraint condition be used for it is every one kind data weight It builds, the image after obtaining 3 reconstructions.
4) kidney obtained after dividing data is registrated using golden (Lucas-Kanade) algorithm of pyramid Lucas, Search for the motion transform parameter between two images step by step using image pyramid.First pyramidal smallest dimension layer into Row search, finds the optimal mapping of registration two images, and later each layer is searched centered on the result of the search of preceding layer Rope, and constantly amendment preceding layer pyramid obtain as a result, until out to out layer.It may finally obtain all moving image (b > 0) displacement relative to reference picture (b=0) and direction.It is later zero by 9 image registrations of high b value to first b value On image.
5) by the graphical arrangement after registration, according to IVIM model calculation formula (wherein for when DWI signal strength, be phase The DWI signal strength for answering b value to obtain, f and the occupation rate that (1-f) respectively represents microcirculatory perfusion and true property is spread, D* are to represent The ADC value of microcirculatory perfusion effect, D are the ADC values for representing true property disperse) fitting obtain the functional parameter figure of IVIM model.
Fig. 2 gives the map figure after the present invention is fitted by IVIM model data.It is tested that this figure compares registration front and back two The map of person D/D*/f/ADC schemes.The visual effect of four Parameter Maps has enhancing: the profile of kidney be more clear and failure Match pixel point is reduced.After registration, the visual effect of four parameters is obviously improved.
