The structure of the coronary artery stenosis detection model can show that the coronary artery stenosis detection model comprises a segmentation network and a stenosis analysis network, so that the coronary artery stenosis detection model is a multi-task model, can simultaneously segment an input image to be detected and carry out stenosis detection on the input image to be detected to obtain detection results containing at least two types of results, namely a coronary artery segmentation result and a coronary artery stenosis result. In addition, the segmentation network and the narrow analysis network share parameters in the backbone network, so that the segmentation network and the narrow analysis network have strong correlation, and therefore, the learning performance of the segmentation network and the narrow analysis network can be improved in an auxiliary manner when the network structure is optimized, the risk of overfitting is reduced, the situation of practical application is better met, and the detection accuracy of the detection result is improved.
The application also provides three network structures for realizing coronary artery stenosis detection of the image to be detected, and the method specifically comprises the following steps:
in a first application scenario, based on the network structure shown in fig. 3, the present application further provides a network structure, as shown in fig. 5, a narrow analysis network in the network structure includes a classification network and a regression network. In this application, the corresponding coronary stenosis results include a stenosis classification and a stenosis degree.
The stenosis classification is used to describe whether a coronary artery region included in the image to be detected belongs to a stenosis region, and may be specifically represented by characters, numbers, letters, and the like. The stenosis degree is used to describe the stenosis degree of the coronary artery region included in the image to be detected, and may be a specific numerical value or a percentage numerical value, and the magnitude of the numerical value represents the magnitude of the stenosis degree. The function of a classification network for classifying a specific coronary artery region in an input feature image and determining whether the coronary artery region belongs to a narrow region is explained on the basis of the network configuration shown in the embodiment of fig. 3, and if not, a classification result indicating "yes" is output, and if not, a classification result indicating "no" is output. Accordingly, the regression network is used to perform stenosis analysis on a specific coronary artery region in the input feature image, and obtain a stenosis degree of the coronary artery region, which is equivalent to an estimation value of the stenosis degree.
In the application scenario, the network structure shown in fig. 5 is used to segment or detect the image to be detected, and the specific process includes: inputting the obtained image to be detected into a backbone network by the computer equipment for feature extraction to obtain a feature image; then the characteristic image is further input into a segmentation network to carry out segmentation processing on the coronary artery structure, and a coronary artery segmentation result is obtained; meanwhile, the computer equipment can input the characteristic images into the classification network for classification processing to obtain the result of narrow classification, and input the characteristic images into the regression network for narrow degree estimation to obtain the estimated value of the narrow degree.
In a second application scenario, based on the network structure shown in fig. 4, the present application further provides a network structure, as shown in fig. 6, the narrow analysis network in the network structure includes a classification network and a regression network, and the output of the segmentation network is connected to the inputs of the classification network and the regression network. In this application, the corresponding coronary stenosis results include a stenosis classification and a stenosis degree.
In the application scenario, the network structure shown in fig. 6 is used to segment or detect the image to be detected, and the specific process includes: inputting the obtained image to be detected into a backbone network by the computer equipment for feature extraction to obtain a feature image; the computer equipment inputs the characteristic image into a segmentation network to carry out segmentation processing on the coronary artery structure, and a coronary artery segmentation result is obtained; then, on one hand, the computer equipment inputs the coronary artery segmentation result and the characteristic image into the classification network simultaneously for classification processing to obtain a stenosis classification result, and on the other hand, the computer equipment inputs the coronary artery segmentation result and the characteristic image into the regression network simultaneously for stenosis degree estimation to obtain an estimated value of the stenosis degree. Optionally, the computer device may further process the coronary artery segmentation result and the feature image to obtain an image of a region to be detected on the feature image, and then input the image of the region to be detected to the classification network and the regression network respectively to perform classification and stenosis degree detection on the coronary artery indicated by the region, so as to obtain a stenosis classification and stenosis degree correspondingly.
As can be seen from the above description, in any of the network structures shown in fig. 3-6, the segmentation network and the stenosis analysis network (or the classification network and the regression network) share the output characteristics of the backbone network, which indicates that the coronary artery segmentation and the coronary artery stenosis analysis are related to each other, and particularly, the output of the segmentation network in fig. 4 and 6 is connected to the input of the stenosis analysis network, so that the relationship of the stenosis analysis network is stronger, and therefore, when the network structure is optimized, the learning performance of each other can be improved in an auxiliary manner, the risk of overfitting easily generated in the multitask network structure is reduced, and the detection accuracy of the network structure is further improved. In practical applications, the coronary artery segmentation result optionally includes a probability response map and a coronary artery segmentation image. The coronary artery segmentation image represents an image after segmentation processing, the image contains a coronary artery structure, for example, the image can contain a left branch coronary artery blood vessel and a right branch coronary artery blood vessel after segmentation, and can also include an intersection point on the coronary artery blood vessel after segmentation, or other key points. The probability response graph is used for indicating the probability that each pixel point on the image to be detected or the characteristic image is expressed as coronary artery.
In a third application scenario, based on the network structure shown in fig. 6, the coronary stenosis detection model further includes a pooling layer, as shown in fig. 7. The pooling layer is used for outputting an interested area image according to the probability response graph, and the interested area image is a characteristic image containing all coronary structures or part of coronary structures. The function of the pooling layer for performing region-of-interest image extraction on the input feature image according to the region of interest to obtain a region-of-interest image is explained on the basis of the network structure shown in the embodiment of fig. 6.
Correspondingly, the output of the pooling layer is respectively connected with the input of the classification network and the input of the regression network; under the condition, the classification network is used for classifying the images of the interested region to obtain narrow classification; the regression network is used for estimating the stenosis degree of the region-of-interest images belonging to the stenosis, and an estimation value of the stenosis degree is obtained.
Under the above application, the network structure shown in fig. 7 is used to segment or examine the image to be examined, and the specific process includes: inputting the obtained image to be detected into a backbone network by the computer equipment for feature extraction to obtain a feature image; then, the characteristic image is further input into a segmentation network to carry out segmentation processing on the coronary artery structure, and a probability response graph is obtained; then the computer device obtains the interested region containing the coronary artery structure to be detected by analyzing the coronary artery probability value indicated by the probability response diagram, and then inputs the interested region and the characteristic image into the pooling layer to extract the image of the interested region, thus obtaining the image of the interested region containing the coronary artery structure to be detected. Then, the computer device can input the image of the region of interest into a regression network to perform stenosis degree estimation of the region, so as to obtain an estimation value of the stenosis degree, and input the image of the region of interest into a classification network to perform stenosis classification of the region, so as to identify whether the region belongs to stenosis, so as to obtain a stenosis classification result.
The network structure related to the embodiment uses the pooling layer to realize the feature extraction of the image blocks of the region of interest of the main network output feature image, so that the narrow analysis network connected with the network structure can pertinently perform narrow analysis on coronary structures contained in the image blocks of the region of interest, and the accurate determination of the narrow analysis is further improved.
In a fourth application scenario, based on the network structure shown in fig. 7, the coronary stenosis detection model further includes a convolutional layer, as shown in fig. 8. The function of the convolutional layer is added on the basis of the network structure shown in the embodiment of fig. 7, and the convolutional layer is used for performing depth feature extraction on the image of the region of interest to obtain a feature image of the region of interest. Correspondingly, the input of the convolution layer is connected with the pooling layer, and the output of the convolution layer is respectively connected with the input of the classification network and the input of the regression network; in this case, the classification network is used for classifying the characteristic images of the region of interest to obtain a narrow classification; the regression network is used for carrying out stenosis degree estimation on the characteristic image of the region-of-interest image belonging to stenosis to obtain an estimation value of the stenosis degree.
Under the above application, the network structure shown in fig. 8 is used to segment or examine the image to be examined, and the specific process includes: inputting the obtained image to be detected into a backbone network by the computer equipment for feature extraction to obtain a feature image; then, the characteristic image is further input into a segmentation network to carry out segmentation processing on the coronary artery structure, and a probability response graph is obtained; and then the computer equipment obtains an interested region containing the coronary artery structure to be detected by analyzing the coronary artery probability value indicated by the probability response diagram, and then inputs the interested region and the characteristic image into the pooling layer to extract an interested region image so as to obtain an interested region image containing the coronary artery structure to be detected. Then, inputting the region-of-interest image into a convolutional layer by computer equipment for depth feature extraction to obtain a feature image of the region-of-interest image; finally, the computer equipment inputs the characteristic image of the region of interest into a regression network to estimate the stenosis degree of the region, so as to obtain an estimation value of the stenosis degree, and inputs the characteristic image of the region of interest into a classification network to classify the stenosis of the region, so as to identify whether the region belongs to stenosis or not, so as to obtain a result of the stenosis classification.
The network structure related to the embodiment uses the convolutional layer to realize further depth feature extraction of the image blocks in the region of interest, so that the extracted features can better adapt to the analysis requirements of the narrow analysis network, and the relevance of the narrow analysis network, the segmentation network and the backbone network is enhanced, thereby improving the detection accuracy of the whole network structure.
As can be seen from the foregoing description, the coronary artery stenosis detection model is a network model trained by a computer device in advance, so the present application further provides a method for training the coronary artery stenosis detection model, fig. 9 is a flowchart of a training method provided in an embodiment, which relates to a process in which the computer device trains an initial coronary artery stenosis detection model according to a plurality of sample images and using gold standard images corresponding to the sample images as supervision information, as shown in fig. 9, where the process includes:
s201, obtaining a sample image.
The sample image represents an image currently used when training is needed, and is the same as the type of the image to be detected described in the foregoing S101, and specific contents may refer to the foregoing description, and redundant description is not repeated here.
S202, inputting the sample image into an initial coronary artery stenosis detection model for training by taking the gold standard image corresponding to the sample image as supervision information to obtain the coronary artery stenosis detection model.
The gold standard image is a marked image, and may be an image formed by marking various morphological structures included in the coronary artery structure on the sample image by a computer device in advance using different labels, for example, a left branch coronary artery, a right branch coronary artery, an intersection of the coronary arteries, and the like in the coronary artery structure. It should be noted that, when marking the intersection of the coronary artery, the intersection may be further expanded first, and the expanded intersection is marked with the same label, and if the coordinate value corresponding to the expanded intersection exceeds the range of the coronary artery blood vessel, the corresponding pixel point that exceeds is marked as the background. In addition, the computer device can mark the boundary of the coronary artery stenosis region on the sample image in advance, and estimate the stenosis degree of the marked stenosis region according to the cross-sectional area of the central line of the blood vessel, and optionally, the computer device can also estimate the stenosis degree of the marked stenosis region on the sample image by combining with the DSA diagnosis report. In addition to the above labeling method, the labeling method may further include labeling coronary vessels of different segments on the sample image using different labels, and labeling different intersection points or key points on the sample image using different labels, where the manner of labeling may be determined according to actual application requirements, and this embodiment is not limited to this embodiment. And after the computer equipment finishes all marking according to the method, taking the marked image as a gold standard image.
In this embodiment, when the computer device obtains a plurality of sample images and corresponding gold standard images, the plurality of sample images are input into the initial coronary artery stenosis detection model, the segmentation image and/or the stenosis detection image corresponding to the sample images are output, then parameters of the initial coronary artery stenosis detection model are adjusted according to a difference between the output segmentation image and/or the stenosis detection image and the gold standard image, and training is performed until a target loss function of the initial coronary artery stenosis detection model converges or the output segmentation image and/or the stenosis detection image is substantially consistent with the gold standard image corresponding to the input sample image, so as to obtain the trained coronary artery stenosis detection model, which is used in the detection process described in fig. 2.
In the training process, an objective loss function of the initial coronary stenosis detection model is involved, and the objective loss function adopts a multitask loss function, so that the objective loss function comprises a first loss function, a second loss function and a third loss function. Wherein, the first loss function can be obtained according to the output result of the segmentation network; the second loss function may be obtained from an output result of the classification network; the third loss function may be derived from the output of the regression network.
The target loss function in this embodiment is the sum of the weighted sums of the first, second, and third loss functions. Specifically, it can be expressed by the following relational expression (1):
Lz=Ls+λ1*Lc+λ2*Lr (1);
wherein Lz represents an objective loss function; ls represents a first loss function; lc represents a second loss function; lr represents a third loss function; lambda [ alpha ]1Representing a classification weight; lambda [ alpha ]2The regression weights are represented.
There is also an application scenario that, when the locations of the key points are included in the coronary artery segmentation image, after the computer device obtains the coronary artery segmentation result including the probability response map and the coronary artery segmentation image and the coronary artery stenosis result including the stenosis classification and the stenosis degree through the above embodiment, the computer device may further perform the following steps to obtain the location of the coronary artery centerline and the coronary artery segmentation result, as shown in fig. 10, the steps including:
s301, obtaining the position of the coronary artery central line in the image to be detected according to the probability response map.
In this embodiment, when the computer device obtains the probability response map, it may further select, from a probability response curve or a curved surface describing the probability response curve in each cross-sectional area of the blood vessel in the probability response map, a point with the highest probability response in each cross-sectional area as a control point, and sequentially connect the control points, where the connected curve is a partial coronary centerline.
