Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the architecture shown in fig. 1 is merely a block diagram of some of the structures associated with the inventive arrangements and is not intended to limit the computing devices to which the inventive arrangements may be applied, as a particular computing device may include more or less components than those shown, or may combine certain components, or have a different arrangement of components.
In one embodiment, as shown in fig. 2, a method for constructing a neuroblastoma model is provided, which is illustrated by the application of the method to the computer device in fig. 1, and comprises the following steps:
step S202, a first STL document and a second STL document are obtained.
The STL (stereolithography) document can describe the surface geometry of the three-dimensional object through the stored information, and the 3D printer can print the corresponding object according to the STL document; the STL document may store information related to neuroblastoma through which a shape of neuroblastoma may be described, and information related to a peripheral tissue of neuroblastoma, which may be a blood vessel around neuroblastoma, such as a blood supply artery, to describe a shape of the peripheral tissue. In the following description, the STL document storing information of neuroblastoma is represented by a first STL document; the STL document storing information of the surrounding organization is represented by a second STL document.
In this step, the computer apparatus proceeds to step S204 after acquiring the first STL document and the second STL document.
Specifically, the computer device may obtain the first STL document and the second STL document by: firstly, acquiring raw data obtained by CT scanning by computer equipment, wherein the raw data is used for representing neuroblastoma and peripheral tissues; and then, the computer equipment carries out three-dimensional reconstruction processing on the original data to obtain a three-dimensional image, and carries out threshold segmentation on the three-dimensional image to obtain a first STL document and a second STL document.
The computer device may perform three-dimensional reconstruction processing on the original data through three-dimensional reconstruction software, where the three-dimensional reconstruction software may be a Mimics software program v14.01 (materialcorp, Leuven, Belgium).
In another embodiment, the raw data may be data transmitted by a CT scanning device, and specifically, the CT scanning device may perform enhanced scanning according to preset scanning parameters to obtain the raw data. Wherein the CT scanning device may be a Toshiba Aquillion or Philips Brilliance 64-row helical CT machine. The preset scan parameters are used for the CT scanning device to scan according to the scan parameters, and the preset scan parameters may include various parameter types and values corresponding to the various parameter types, for example, the parameter types may include but are not limited to: tube voltage, scanning layer thickness, layer interval and the like, and the numerical values of the parameter types can be selected according to actual conditions; in one embodiment, the preset scan parameters may include the following parameter types and corresponding values: the tube voltage is 120kV, the current is automatically adjusted, the scanning layer thickness is 0.625mm, the layer interval is 0, the thread pitch is 1.0, and the matrix is 512 multiplied by 512. The enhanced scanning can adopt different parameter values according to actual conditions, for example, nonionic Ultravist370 can be adopted; 1-3ml/kg body mass, injection flow rate 1-2 ml/s. Furthermore, when the CT scanning device is used for scanning, the scanning range can be determined according to actual conditions, in one embodiment, the scanning range can be the whole tumor, single arterial phase scanning is adopted for scanning, and direct enhanced scanning is applied for the first time, so that flat scanning and venous phase scanning are reduced, and CT dose received by a scanning object is further reduced.
Step S204, adding the pre-selected color information to the first STL document and the second STL document.
The color information is used for attaching corresponding colors to the model printed by the 3D printer, and the color information added to the first STL document and the second STL document may be information representing the same color, such as information representing red, or information representing different colors, such as information representing yellow and red, respectively.
In this step, after the computer device obtains the pre-selected color information, the color information is added to the first STL document and the second STL document. Wherein the computer device may add the color information to the first and second STL documents via the three-dimensional reconstruction software. Specifically, a user can select color information in the three-dimensional reconstruction software through a mouse, and when the user clicks a mouse to trigger a color selection instruction, the three-dimensional reconstruction software can determine the selected color information according to the color selection instruction, so that the color information is added to the first STL document and the second STL document.
In one embodiment, the computer device first obtains a first color selection instruction, determines first color information corresponding to the first color selection instruction, and adds the first color information to the first STL document, and then when obtaining a second color selection instruction, determines second color information corresponding to the second color selection instruction, and adds the second color information to the second STL document, where the first color information and the second color information may represent a same color, such as yellow, red, or green, or may represent different colors, such as the first color information may represent yellow, and the second color information may represent red. When the first color information and the second color information represent different colors, the model of the neuroblastoma and the model of the surrounding tissues are more distinguishable, and the distinction is facilitated. In this embodiment, the computer device may add the first STL document and the second STL document to the three-dimensional reconstruction software, which is described in the above steps for a specific manner and is not described herein again.
Step S206, if the integration instruction is received, performing integration processing on the first STL document and the second STL document including the color information to obtain an overall STL document.
Wherein the integration instruction is for triggering the computer device to integrate the STL document.
In this step, the computer device adds the color information to the first and second STL documents to obtain first and second STL documents containing the color information, and when the computer device receives the integration instruction, the computer device performs integration processing on the first and second STL documents containing the color information to obtain an overall STL document.
And step S208, printing to obtain a colored integral model according to the integral STL document.
In this step, after obtaining the entire STL document, the computer device prints a colored integral model, which is a model including neuroblastoma and surrounding tissues, from the entire STL document. Specifically, the computer device may send the entire STL document to a 3D printer connected to the computer device, triggering the 3D printer to print the colored integral model from the entire STL document. The 3D printer may be Stratasys J750TM, among others.
In one embodiment, to facilitate viewing the positional relationship between the neuroblastoma model and the surrounding tissue model, a transparent material (e.g., VeroClear) can be usedTM) Printing to obtain a transparent colored integral model, e.g. a transparent red integral model, or a transparent red surrounding tissue model and a transparent yellow nerve headA colored integral model of a cytoma model. Further, printing may also be performed in combination with a transparent material and an RGD720 printing model.
According to the method for constructing the neuroblastoma model, the pre-selected color information is added to the first STL document representing the neuroblastoma information and the second STL document representing the peripheral tissue information of the neuroblastoma, after the integration instruction is received, the first STL document and the second STL document containing the color information are integrated to obtain the whole STL document, and the colored whole model containing the neuroblastoma and the peripheral tissue is obtained by printing according to the whole STL document, so that the condition that the neuroblastoma model and the peripheral tissue model need to be spliced is avoided, the splicing error in the splicing process is prevented, and the colored whole model can accurately present the position relation of the neuroblastoma and the peripheral tissue.
In one embodiment, the step of thresholding the three-dimensional image by the computer device to obtain the first STL document and the second STL document may comprise: determining a first segmentation threshold of the neuroblastoma and a second segmentation threshold of the surrounding tissue based on a pre-imaging process; and performing threshold segmentation on the three-dimensional image according to the first segmentation threshold and the second segmentation threshold to obtain a first STL document and a second STL document.
In this embodiment, the computer device may perform threshold segmentation on the three-dimensional image through three-dimensional reconstruction software, specifically, the three-dimensional reconstruction software may determine a first segmentation threshold of the neuroblastoma and a second segmentation threshold of the surrounding tissue according to pre-radiography processing, and perform threshold segmentation on the three-dimensional image according to the determined first segmentation threshold and the determined second segmentation threshold, to obtain a first STL document and a second STL document. Wherein, the pre-contrast treatment can be the contrast treatment of neuroblastoma by using an Ultravist370 contrast agent; the contrast processing can enable the original data obtained by scanning the neuroblastoma and the surrounding tissues by the CT scanning equipment to have larger discrimination, and the three-dimensional reconstruction software can determine the corresponding segmentation threshold according to the original data with larger discrimination, so that the three-dimensional image is subjected to threshold segmentation according to the corresponding segmentation threshold, and the first STL document and the second STL document are obtained.
In an embodiment, the step of performing, by the computer device, threshold segmentation on the three-dimensional image according to a first segmentation threshold and a second segmentation threshold to obtain a first STL document and a second STL document may include performing region growing modification processing on the first STL document and the second STL document to obtain a modified first STL document and a modified second STL document: .
In this embodiment, the computer apparatus may perform region growing processing on the first STL document and the second STL document to modify the image, thereby obtaining modified first STL document and second STL document. The modification processing of the image by the computer device can also be realized by utilizing functions of image editing, Boolean budget and the like.
In the following description, neuroblastoma may be simply referred to as tumor.
In the traditional technology, two-dimensional plane images obtained by a CT scanning device are mainly relied on to display the position of a tumor and evaluate the relation between the tumor and peripheral blood vessels. This way of displaying the position relationship between the tumor and the surrounding blood vessels can cause large errors in tumor localization due to the two-dimensional image properties of CT. Although 3D printing can overcome the disadvantage that CT two-dimensional images cause non-intuition, the tumor model and the surrounding tissue model printed in 3D still need to be further spliced in the later period, and errors may be caused in the splicing process, so that the tumor model and the surrounding tissue model still cannot accurately display the position relationship between the tumor and the surrounding tissue.
Based on this, the present invention provides a method for constructing neuroblastoma, and in order to better understand the method, an application example of the method for constructing neuroblastoma model according to the present invention is described in detail below.

The tumor was scanned using spiral CT with a CT scan layer thickness of 0.625mm and ultrasound contrast agent of ultravisst 370. The scan site includes the entire tumor, including the plateau phase, the arterial phase, and the venous phase. The obtained image clearly shows the fine branch structure and the artifact is small. The functions of threshold segmentation, region growing, image editing, morphological operation, Boolean budget and the like in the three-dimensional reconstruction software mimics14.01 are utilized to carry out segmentation reconstruction on the tissue structure respectively.
