The following method embodiments are described by taking the subject as a medical scanning device, which may be a magnetic resonance apparatus, a CT machine, a PET machine, or the like.
Fig. 1 is a flowchart illustrating a method for acquiring a medical image according to an embodiment. The present embodiments relate to a specific process in which a medical scanning apparatus determines scan parameters of a subject and scans the subject based on scanning apparatus information and subject information. As shown in fig. 1, the method includes:
s101, scanning equipment information and measured object information are acquired.
Specifically, the medical scanning device first obtains the corresponding scanning device information and the measured object information, optionally, the scanning device information may be model information of the scanning device, such as an X001 model magnetic resonance instrument, a Y002 model CT machine, and the like, and may further include hardware configuration of the scanning device, such as maximum scanning intensity, fastest scanning speed, and the like that can be achieved by the magnetic resonance instrument.
Optionally, the subject information may include at least one of age information, height information, weight information, and scanning area information of the subject, which may be obtained by the medical scanning device from a current medical system, for example, when the medical image of the patient is scanned at a hospital, the current information of the patient may be obtained from a patient case library of the hospital. Optionally, the information of the subject may further include other information such as the current hemoglobin index, blood pressure index, bone density, etc. of the subject; the method can also comprise initial diagnosis information given by a doctor during initial diagnosis of the tested object, namely the disease condition which needs to be diagnosed currently, for example, the doctor initially diagnoses that the patient has the lung nodule, and the patient is allowed to take a CT image to confirm whether the lung nodule exists.
And S102, inputting the scanning equipment information and the measured object information into a preset scanning parameter recommendation model, and determining the scanning parameters of the measured object.
Specifically, the medical scanning device may input the scanning device information and the information of the object to be measured into a preset scanning parameter recommendation model, and the scanning parameter recommendation model may determine the scanning parameter corresponding to the object to be measured according to the input information. Different scanning parameters can be output aiming at different scanning devices of the same tested object; different scan parameters may also be output for different subjects within the same scanning apparatus. Optionally, the scan parameters output by the scan parameter recommendation model may include one or more sets, and when the output scan parameters are multiple sets, the medical scanning device may further fuse the multiple sets of scan parameters to obtain the final scan parameters of the object to be measured. Optionally, the outputted scan parameters may include scan intensity, scan speed and scan direction, and may further include applied voltage, applied power, scan time, scan start position and end position, and the like. Alternatively, the scan intensity may be a dose of a contrast agent to be injected, an intensity of radiation, or the like for a CT machine and a PET machine, and the scan intensity may be a magnetic field intensity of radiation for a magnetic resonance apparatus.
Optionally, the scan parameter recommendation model may be a neural network model, a Support Vector Machine (SVM), a Decision Tree (Decision Tree), or a bayesian classification model, or may be a classification model learned by other machines, as long as it can classify the object to be detected according to the scanning device information and the object information to be detected after the training is completed, so as to obtain the corresponding scan parameter.
Optionally, the scan parameter recommendation model may further output a scan protocol, which may include scan parameters and scan steps performed according to the scan parameters.
And S103, scanning the tested object according to the scanning parameters to obtain a medical image.
Specifically, after the medical scanning device obtains the scanning parameters of the object to be measured, the object to be measured can be scanned according to the scanning parameters to obtain the corresponding medical image.
In the method for acquiring a medical image according to this embodiment, the medical scanning device inputs the acquired scanning device information and the information of the object to be measured into a preset scanning parameter recommendation model to obtain the scanning parameters of the object to be measured, and then scans the object to be measured according to the scanning parameters to obtain the medical image. In the method, the medical scanning equipment can automatically obtain the scanning parameters of the tested object according to the scanning equipment information and the tested object information without manual intervention, so that the intelligence and efficiency of the medical image acquisition process are improved; and the trained scanning parameter recommendation model determines the scanning parameters, so that the accuracy of the scanning parameters is improved, and the accuracy of the obtained medical image is further improved.
Optionally, in some embodiments, the scan parameter recommendation model is a neural network model, and before using the model, the model needs to be trained to obtain a converged scan parameter recommendation model. Fig. 2 is a flowchart illustrating a method for acquiring a medical image according to another embodiment. On the basis of the above embodiment, optionally, the training mode of the scan parameter recommendation model includes:
s201, acquiring scanning parameter data sets when different scanning equipment scans different tested objects; the scan parameter dataset includes a correspondence between scan device information, subject information, and scan parameters.
Specifically, in the scan parameter recommendation model training phase, the medical scanning device needs to acquire a large amount of training data, where the training data is a scan parameter data set when different scanning devices scan different objects to be tested, and the scan parameter data set includes correspondence between scanning device information, object information to be tested, and scan parameters, that is, a scanning device a scans an object to be tested C using a scan parameter B. The obtained scanning device information (such as the device model) and the information of the tested object (such as age information, height information, weight information and scanning part information) are used as sample data, and the corresponding scanning parameters are used as gold standards to train the scanning parameter recommendation model. Alternatively, the scan parameter data set may be acquired by a Medical scanning device from a Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS), a Radiology Information System (RIS), or an Electronic Medical Record (EMR).
Optionally, the scan parameter data set may further include medical images obtained when different scanning devices scan different objects; in order to facilitate the training of the scan parameter recommendation model, the medical images can be preprocessed into image data with the same size and the same format. Optionally, after the scanning parameter data set is obtained, the medical scanning device may store the scanning parameter data set in a database for subsequent calling, where the database may be stored in the medical scanning device, may also be stored in another computer device that communicates with the medical scanning device, and may also be stored in a cloud server, which is not limited in this embodiment.
Since in actual operation of the scanning device, there are usually a plurality of scanning parameters (such as required scanning intensity, scanning speed, etc.), optionally, the scanning parameters in the scanning parameter data set may be embodied in scanning categories, each of which characterizes a set of scanning parameters, such as scanning category a (scanning intensity 1, scanning speed 1), scanning category B (scanning intensity 2, scanning speed 2), etc.
S202, taking the scanning parameter data set as training data, and training the initial scanning parameter recommendation model to obtain the scanning parameter recommendation model.
Specifically, the medical scanning device may input the scanning parameter data set as input data into an initial scanning parameter recommendation model for processing, where the initial scanning parameter recommendation model may output scanning parameters of different objects to be tested. Then, the medical scanning equipment compares the output scanning parameters with real scanning parameters (namely the gold standard) in the scanning parameter data set to obtain the difference between the output scanning parameters and the real scanning parameters in the scanning parameter data set as loss, and trains the initial scanning parameter recommendation model by using the loss until the loss meets the preset condition, and the initial scanning parameter recommendation model is trained to obtain the scanning parameter recommendation model. Optionally, the preset condition that the loss meets may be that the loss value reaches convergence, or may be less than or equal to a set threshold.
Optionally, the scan parameter recommendation model may be a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), a Full Convolutional Network (FCN), or a neural network model, which is not limited in this embodiment.
Optionally, after obtaining the trained scanning parameter recommendation model, the medical scanning device inputs the acquired scanning device information and the information of the object to be tested into the scanning parameter recommendation model, and determining the scanning parameter of the object to be tested may include: inputting the information of the scanning equipment and the information of the object to be detected into a scanning parameter recommendation model to obtain a scanning recommendation category; and determining the scanning parameters of the tested object according to the recommended scanning category and the corresponding relation between the recommended scanning category and the scanning parameters.
Specifically, after a series of operations such as convolution and pooling are performed on input scanning device information and measured object information by the scanning parameter recommendation model, a scanning recommendation category of the measured object can be obtained, and then a final scanning parameter is obtained according to a corresponding relation between the scanning recommendation category and the scanning parameter. As can be seen from the above description, each scan recommendation category corresponds to a set of scan parameters, and then the required scan parameters can be determined after the scan recommendation categories are obtained. Optionally, the correspondence between the scan recommendation category and the scan parameter may be stored in a database or a data table.
In the method for acquiring a medical image according to this embodiment, the scan parameter recommendation model is a neural network model, and the medical scanning device may first train the initial scan parameter recommendation model using the scan parameter data set to obtain the scan parameter recommendation model, and then input the scanning device information and the information of the object to be measured into the scan parameter recommendation model to determine the scan parameters of the object to be measured. According to the method, the neural network model with the converged training is used as the scanning parameter recommendation model, so that the efficiency and the accuracy of the process of determining the scanning parameters can be improved, and the acquisition efficiency and the accuracy of the medical images are further improved.
Fig. 3 is a flowchart illustrating a method for acquiring a medical image according to another embodiment. On the basis of the foregoing embodiment, optionally, after S102, the method further includes:
s301, determining whether the scan parameter matches the object under test based on the object information.
And S302, if yes, executing the step of scanning the tested object according to the scanning parameters.
And S303, if not, determining new scanning parameters according to the information of the tested object.
Specifically, after the medical scanning device determines the scanning parameters of the object to be measured, it may be determined whether the scanning parameters match the object to be measured according to the object information. Optionally, assuming that the object information includes 4 index information, the scanning parameter includes 2 parameters, and each index information has a corresponding parameter value range under 2 parameters, the medical scanning device determines whether the scanning parameter matches the object by determining whether the obtained scanning parameter is within the corresponding parameter value range.
For example, assume that 4 pieces of index information are (age, height, weight, and scanning location), and 2 pieces of parameters are (scanning intensity, scanning speed), where different ages have different value ranges under the scanning intensity and scanning speed, different heights have different value ranges under the scanning intensity and scanning speed, different weights have different value ranges under the scanning intensity and scanning speed, and different scanning locations have different value ranges under the scanning intensity and scanning speed, and according to the current information of the object to be measured, it is determined whether each value in the obtained scanning parameters is within the corresponding value range.
If the scanning parameters are judged to be matched with the tested object, the medical scanning equipment scans the tested object according to the scanning parameters to obtain a medical image. And if the obtained scanning parameters are not matched with the tested object, determining new scanning parameters according to the information of the tested object, namely adjusting the obtained scanning parameters according to the value range to determine the new scanning parameters, and scanning the tested object according to the new scanning parameters to obtain the medical image. In practical application, optionally, the obtained scanning parameters may be checked by a doctor to determine whether the obtained scanning parameters match the current information to be measured, if the obtained scanning parameters do not match the current information to be measured, a new scanning parameter may be input by the doctor, and the medical scanning device scans the object to be measured according to the received new scanning parameters to obtain a medical image.
Optionally, in some embodiments, after determining new scan parameters according to the subject information, the method further includes: and updating the scanning parameter recommendation model by taking the scanning equipment information, the tested object information and the new scanning parameters as training data. That is, when a new scan parameter needs to be determined, it indicates that there is an error in the scan parameter output according to the scan parameter recommendation model, and then the scan parameter recommendation model may be trained again according to the new scan parameter to update the scan parameter recommendation model, so as to further improve the accuracy of the scan parameter recommendation model and improve the accuracy of the subsequently obtained scan parameter.
In the method for acquiring a medical image according to this embodiment, the medical scanning device determines whether the scanning parameter matches the object to be measured according to the object to be measured information, scans the object to be measured according to the scanning parameter if the scanning parameter matches the object to be measured information, and determines a new scanning parameter according to the object to be measured information if the scanning parameter does not match the object to be measured information. Therefore, the accuracy of the obtained scanning parameters can be further improved in the judging process, and larger errors are prevented.
Optionally, in some embodiments, the scan parameter recommendation model is a similarity metric function model, and fig. 4 is a flowchart of a medical image acquisition method according to yet another embodiment. This embodiment relates to a specific process in which a medical scanning device determines scan parameters of a subject based on scanning device information and subject information. On the basis of the foregoing embodiment, optionally, as shown in fig. 4, S102 may include:
s401, an information list of the same object as the scanning apparatus information is acquired.
Specifically, the medical scanning apparatus may acquire an information list of the same object as the current scanning apparatus information from the scanning parameter data set, where the information list may include object information and scanning parameters, that is, an information list of objects that have been scanned by using the scanning apparatus before.
S402, acquiring information with the maximum similarity to the measured object information from the information list by using the similarity measurement function model.
Specifically, the medical scanning parameters acquire information with the greatest similarity to the information of the subject from the information list by using the similarity metric function model, for example, the current subject information is (30 years old, 160cm, 50kg, scanning head), and the information with the greatest similarity to the information acquired from the information list is (30 years old, 161cm, 50.2kg, scanning head).
And S403, determining the scanning parameter corresponding to the information with the maximum similarity as the scanning parameter of the tested object.
Specifically, since the information list may include the information of the object to be measured and the scanning parameters, after the information with the largest similarity is obtained, the scanning parameters corresponding to the information may also be obtained, and the medical scanning apparatus may use the scanning parameters as the scanning parameters of the object to be measured. Optionally, the number of the information with the maximum similarity may be multiple, and the medical scanning device may fuse the scanning parameters corresponding to the multiple information with the maximum similarity, and use the fusion result as the scanning parameters of the object to be measured. Optionally, the fusion process may be to average the values of the scanning parameters to obtain the scanning parameters of the measured object.
Optionally, after the scanning parameters of the object to be measured are determined, the object to be measured information, the scanning device information, and the scanning parameters may be added to the scanning parameter data set, so that the subsequent scanning parameter recommendation model outputs more accurate scanning parameters.
For example, as shown in fig. 4a, the process of obtaining the information with the greatest similarity to the measured object information by using the similarity metric function model may be: for better illustration, taking the subject information as (age, height, weight) as an example, the 3 pieces of information may be represented as an xyz coordinate system, and assuming that there are 5 pieces of subject information (A, B, C, D, E) in the current information list, the 5 pieces of subject information may correspond to 5 points (e.g., black solid points in the figure) in the xyz coordinate system, and the 5 points are connected to the origin to form 5 vectors; and then, the current measured object information (F) is also corresponding to an xyz coordinate system (such as a hollow point in the figure), and is also connected with the origin to form a vector, so that the smaller the cosine value of which included angle is in the included angles between the vector and the other 5 vectors, the closer the two vectors are, and the greater the similarity between the information corresponding to the vector and the current measured object information is. As shown in fig. 4a, if the cosine value of the included angle between F and a is minimum, which means that the similarity between the information of a and F is maximum, the scanning parameter of a can be recommended to F.
Optionally, in some embodiments, the neural network model may be combined with the similarity metric function model to determine the final scan parameters. The neural network model can determine a plurality of groups of scanning parameters according to the acquired scanning equipment information and the information of the tested object; then, from the measured object information corresponding to the plurality of groups of scanning parameters, the information with the maximum similarity to the current measured object information is determined by using a similarity measurement function model, and the group of scanning parameters corresponding to the information with the maximum similarity is used as the recommended parameters of the current measured object.
In the method for acquiring a medical image according to this embodiment, the scan parameter recommendation model is a similarity measurement function model, the medical scanning device may first acquire an information list of a measured object having the same information as the scanning device, acquire information having the greatest similarity with the information of the measured object from the information list by using the similarity measurement function model, and determine a scan parameter corresponding to the information having the greatest similarity as a scan parameter of the measured object. According to the method, the similarity measurement function model is used as the scanning parameter recommendation model, so that the process efficiency and accuracy of determining the scanning parameters can be improved, and the acquisition efficiency and accuracy of the medical image are improved.

The steps are not performed in the exact order shown and described, and may be performed in other orders, unless explicitly stated otherwise. Moreover, at least some of the steps in fig. 1-4 may include multiple sub-steps or multiple stages that are not necessarily performed at the same time, but may be performed at different times, and the order of performance of the sub-steps or stages is not necessarily sequential, but may be performed in turn or alternating with other steps or at least some of the sub-steps or stages of other steps.
