Technical Field

Background
In magnetic resonance imaging, diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and surface diffusion coefficient (apparent diffusion coefficients, ADC) imaging are imaging methods that can reflect the diffusion specificity of water molecules. In the acute phase of cerebral infarction, due to arterial occlusion, blood diffusion movement is weakened, DWI presents a significantly high signal, while ADC images present a significantly low signal; while the DWI high signal intensity gradually decreases with the progression of the disease, the ADC plot shows a gradual return of significantly lower signal intensity. It can be seen that DWI and ADC have high application value in diagnosing acute cerebral infarction.
In the related art, an infarct focus is usually detected through an ADC threshold value, and then the erroneous judgment is corrected by using a high DWI. However, due to the characteristics of human brain, the DWI and the ADC are not uniformly distributed, and the accuracy of a detection result is difficult to ensure by adopting a method for detecting by a hard threshold value; moreover, this detection method cannot exclude certain non-ischemic lesions, such as tumors, but with high DWI and low ADC.

The implementations described in the following exemplary examples do not represent all implementations consistent with the present specification. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatus and methods consistent with some aspects of the present description as detailed in the accompanying claims.
In order to solve the problems that in the related art, the accuracy is difficult to guarantee and the focus with high DWI and low ADC cannot be eliminated by combining the ADC threshold value and the DWI value, the application provides an infarct focus area detection method, an infarct focus area detection device, an image processing device and a computer readable storage medium.
Referring to fig. 1, a flowchart of a method for detecting an infarct focus area according to an exemplary embodiment of the present application may include the steps of:
in step 101, a brain parenchymal tissue portion in a magnetic resonance image is obtained.
Since the infarct focus is within the brain parenchyma, it is necessary to filter the background from the magnetic resonance image and extract the brain parenchyma.
In one example, the brain parenchymal tissue portion in the magnetic resonance image may be obtained by:
firstly, a first threshold value of a diffusion weighted imaging DWI signal in a magnetic resonance image is obtained;
next, a region of the magnetic resonance image where the diffusion weighted imaging signal is above a first threshold of the weighted imaging signal is determined as a brain parenchymal tissue portion.
It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that the method of obtaining a brain parenchymal tissue portion is not limited to that described above, and that other methods of extracting brain parenchymal tissue portions may be used.
The first threshold for the DWI signal may be obtained by a maximum inter-class variance method, or may be obtained by other methods.
The obtained partial image of the brain parenchyma tissue is shown in fig. 2, for example.
In step 102, a candidate region of infarct focus is obtained from the brain parenchymal tissue portion according to a set surface diffusion coefficient threshold.
In this step, the set ADC threshold is first obtained. The ADC threshold, namely the ADC hard threshold described in the related art, is used for screening the area which is possibly infarcted in the brain parenchymal tissue part. For example, the ADC threshold may be set to any value in the interval 620-635. It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that the above range settings are merely examples, and the present embodiment does not limit the specific range of ADC threshold values.
Based on the obtained ADC threshold value, a region in the brain parenchymal tissue portion where the detected ADC value is smaller than the threshold value is determined as an infarct focus candidate region.
The infarct focus candidate region may be represented by a binarized image, as shown in fig. 3. Wherein, a pixel value of 1 indicates a suspected infarct focus tissue, and a pixel value of 0 indicates a non-infarct focus. All regions formed by suspected infarct focus tissues are candidate infarct focus regions.
In step 103, an infarct focus confirmation area is obtained in which the ratio of the diffusion weighted imaging signal to the surface diffusion coefficient is higher than a set value in the brain parenchymal tissue portion.
In this step, DWI signal values of respective pixels in a brain parenchymal tissue portion and ADC values are first obtained, and a ratio p of the DWI signal values to the ADC values is calculated.
Next, a set value for screening the high ratio region is obtained, and the set value may be set to, for example, 0.25 to 0.3, and the set value may be any value within the range. It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that the above range settings are merely examples, and the present embodiment does not limit the specific range of the set values.
Finally, a region where the ratio p is higher than the set value is determined as an infarct size confirmation region. That is, in the infarct focus confirmation region, the ratio of DWI signals to ADC of all pixels is higher than the above-described set value. This infarct focus identification area may also be referred to as a high ratio area.
The infarct focus determination area may be represented by a binarized image, as shown in fig. 4. Wherein, a pixel value of 1 indicates a tissue with a ratio p higher than a set value, and 0 indicates a tissue with a ratio p lower than or equal to the set value. All tissues with a ratio p above the set value form a high ratio region, i.e. an infarct focus confirmation region.
In step 104, a candidate communication region that communicates with the infarct focus confirmation region among the infarct focus candidate regions is determined.
Communicates with the infarct focus identification zone, i.e. has an intersection with the infarct focus identification zone. Since the infarct size confirmation region is a region where the ratio p of DWI to ADC is high, that is, in this step, a candidate communication region where the ratio p of DWI to ADC is high is determined among the infarct size candidate regions.
Since the suspected infarct focus tissue may be discontinuously distributed in the infarct focus candidate region, there may be a plurality of subregions; as well as the infarct focus identification zone, there may be multiple sub-zones as the high ratio tissue may be non-continuously distributed. In this step, a plurality of subregions of the infarct focus candidate region are selected, and subregions having intersections with the infarct focus confirmation region (high-ratio region) are selected as candidate communication regions.
Reserving the determined candidate communication areas for subsequent processing; for tissue in other areas, the possibility of infarcted tissue is precluded because of its low DWI to ADC ratio p.
In one example, candidate communication areas that communicate with the infarct focus confirmation area are determined by the following method:
and carrying out binarization treatment on the infarct focus candidate region to obtain a connected domain in the infarct focus candidate region, and carrying out reference numerals on the obtained connected domain, wherein the reference is shown in fig. 3.
And (4) performing binarization treatment on the infarct focus identification area to obtain a connected domain in the infarct focus identification area, as shown in fig. 4.
And determining a candidate connected region which has an intersection with the connected region of the infarct focus candidate region in the connected region of the infarct focus candidate region. As shown in fig. 5, a connected domain having an intersection with the infarct focus confirmation region, that is, representing that it is connected to the infarct focus confirmation region, is shown, and the connected domain is determined as a candidate connected region.
Wherein, the connected domain can be regarded as a binarized display result of a continuous subarea in an infarct focus waiting area or an infarct focus confirming area.
In step 105, a target infarct zone is determined from diffusion weighted imaging signal values in the candidate connected regions.
For the candidate areas of infarct focus (candidate connected areas) that remain in step 104, the final target infarct focus area is determined from the diffusion weighted imaging signal values in that area.
Referring to fig. 6, a flowchart of a method for determining a target infarct size according to an exemplary embodiment of the present application may include the steps of:
in step 601, a global threshold of diffusion weighted imaging signals in the brain parenchymal tissue portion is determined.
In this step, the global threshold T of the DWI signal global Refers to the gray average value M of normal brain parenchyma global . Since the region of normal brain parenchyma cannot be determined before the lesion is not determined, a global threshold T for estimating DWI signals is proposed in the disclosure global The method of (1):
first, a second threshold T of diffusion weighted imaging signals of the brain parenchymal tissue part is obtained from the magnetic resonance image air Second threshold T air Obtained by performing a maximum inter-class variance processing on the magnetic resonance image.
It should be noted that, in the case where the first threshold value described above is also obtained by using the maximum inter-class variance method, the second threshold value may be equal to the first threshold value.
Next, by performing maximum inter-class variance processing on the brain parenchymal tissue portion twice, low threshold T of DWI signal is obtained respectively low And a high threshold T high
Finally, according to the second threshold T air And a low threshold T low And a high threshold T high Determining a global threshold T global
For example, the global threshold T may be determined according to the following numerical relationship global : determining that the global threshold is a 2-fold second threshold if the 2-fold second threshold is between the low threshold and the high threshold; otherwise, the global threshold is determined as the one of the low threshold and the high threshold that is closer to a second threshold that is 2 times the distance.
I.e. if T low <2T air <T high Will 2*T air As T global
Otherwise, take T low And T is high Among them, distance 2*T air The closer one, T global
In step 602, an average of diffusion weighted imaging signals of the candidate connected regions and an average of diffusion weighted imaging signals of a neighborhood tissue of the candidate connected regions are determined.
In this step, determining the average value of the DWI signals of the candidate connected regions means determining the average value of the DWI signals of each connected region (sub-region) in the candidate connected regions, that is, the gray average value M of each connected region core The method comprises the steps of carrying out a first treatment on the surface of the Determining the average value of DWI signals of the neighborhood tissue of the candidate connected region refers to determining the average value of DWI signals of the domain tissue of each connected region (sub-region), namely the gray average value M of the neighborhood tissue of each connected region local
In step 603, a region in which the average value of the diffusion weighted imaging signals and the average signal value or the global threshold of the diffusion weighted imaging of the field tissue satisfy a set proportional relationship is determined as a target infarct focus region.
According to the ratio of the gray average value of each connected domain to the gray average value of the domain tissue, or the ratio of the gray average value of each connected domain to the gray average value of the normal brain parenchyma, the target infarct area can be determined.
In this step, the infarct focus area is determined not only according to the level of the DWI signal value in the candidate connected area, but also according to the relationship with the neighborhood tissue DWI signal or according to the relationship with the global threshold.
For example, M in the candidate communication area core ≧0.9×M globa l, or M core ≧1.2×M local Is determined as a target infarct range region; the other parts are filtered out, and finally only the region determined as the infarct focus remains in the magnetic resonance image.
It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that the numerical values in the above proportional relationships are merely examples, and the present disclosure is not limited to the specific numerical values in the proportional relationships.
In this embodiment, by screening candidate areas of infarct with the combination of the ratio of DWI to ADC and the ADC threshold, and further determining the areas of infarct according to the DWI value, detection of infarct in acute and hyperacute phases can be performed, and the areas of infarct and tumor can be distinguished from those of infarct with high DWI value and low ADC value as well.

Furthermore, the descriptions of the individual steps may be implemented in the form of software, hardware, or a combination thereof, for example, those skilled in the art may implement them in the form of software code, or may be computer-executable instructions capable of implementing the logic functions corresponding to the steps.
