Description

Time-change-based method for analyzing post-operation shrinkage of in-vivo light-weight patch
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of image processing, in particular to an in-vivo light-weight patch post-operation shrinkage analysis method based on time change.
Background
The light patch is soft and comfortable, has moderate price, small foreign body residual quantity and low risk of rejection infection. Traditional incisional hernia high mass patches (expanded polytetrafluoroethylene patches, weight-based patches, and conforming patches) are gradually being replaced by lightweight patches based on the trend toward patch development with minimal foreign body residue and surgical cost control considerations. While conventional three-dimensional imaging techniques, such as CT and MRI, are capable of visualizing certain large mass patches, they are not capable of visualizing thin, lightweight patches that are comfortable and can significantly reduce inflammatory responses. While two-dimensional hand-held ultrasound (HHUS) is capable of identifying lightweight patches, it has proven to be not entirely reliable.
Meanwhile, since manufacturers do not currently provide information on the medical development characteristics of the patch materials, surgeons and radiologists either do not know the information at all or are forced to obtain the information through their own clinical experience, and sometimes even need to adopt a secondary exploration to directly view the postoperative condition of the lightweight patch in the patient. Therefore, for the lightweight patch with a wide application prospect, an effective and reliable medical imaging modality is not available at present to accurately detect the patch, and an objective and non-invasive diagnosis and evaluation method is not available to quantitatively characterize the postoperative characteristics of the patch, so that the improvement of the clinical utilization rate and the diagnosis and treatment level of the lightweight patch is greatly hindered. Therefore, a non-invasive analysis scheme is urgently needed to fill the gap in the technical field.

Any feature disclosed in this specification (including any accompanying claims, abstract) may be replaced by alternative features serving equivalent or similar purposes, unless expressly stated otherwise.

preprocessing the data to separate out patch sequences of a cross section and a sagittal plane respectively; respectively constructing three-dimensional models of patch sequences in the cross section and the sagittal plane in two directions, and smoothing the constructed three-dimensional models; fusing the two three-dimensional models of the cross section and the sagittal plane;
wherein the two time points correspond to a state in which the patch has not shrunk and a state in which the patch has shrunk, respectively;
B. and correspondingly selecting the three-dimensional model with the minimum error rate with the real patch from the three-dimensional models (the cross section, the sagittal plane and the fused three-dimensional model) of the two time points, and comparing the spatial variation difference between the two selected three-dimensional models so as to realize the analysis of post-operation shrinkage of the patch. It should be noted that the three-dimensional models at the two selected time points necessarily correspond to each other, that is, are three-dimensional models in the same direction (as a fused three-dimensional model).
Example two
The embodiment discloses an in-vivo light weight type patch postoperative shrinkage analysis method based on time change, which comprises the steps of firstly extracting cross section (Axial) and sagittal plane (Sagital) sequences of an automatic three-dimensional Breast Ultrasound (ABUS) image of two time points of a patient, wherein the two time points are respectively the time points when a corresponding patch is not shrunk and the patch is shrunk; the data extracted at each time point are processed as follows:

And comparing the space change difference between the fused three-dimensional models of the two time points, thereby realizing the quantitative analysis of post-operation shrinkage of the patch. The comparison result of the spatial variation difference can also be displayed visually, and usually, different spatial variation conditions (such as concave and convex variation of the patch, loss of the patch, no variation of the patch, and the like) can be set to display with different display effects, for example, different spatial variation conditions are set to display with different colors, so as to obtain a three-dimensional pseudo-color image corresponding to the spatial variation difference. Further, different colors can be set for different degrees of the same spatial variation.
It should be noted that the above-mentioned selection of comparing the spatial variation difference between the fused three-dimensional models at two time points, rather than comparing the spatial variation difference between the three-dimensional models in two directions at two time points, is because experiments prove that the fused three-dimensional model is closest to the structure of the real patch, i.e. the error rate of comparison is the smallest, so that the shrinkage analysis result is more accurate.

EXAMPLE III
Referring to FIG. 1, this example discloses a time-based method for post-operative shrinkage analysis of an in vivo lightweight patch. The post-operation shrinkage analysis method of the internal lightweight patch based on time change of the embodiment comprises the following steps:
1. and extracting transverse and sagittal plane images. FIG. 2 shows a schematic representation of three essential medical sections of the human body (Axial: transverse; sagital: sagittal; coronal: coronal); figure 4 is a result of ABUS three-plane imaging of an ex vivo lightweight patch. As can be seen from the figure: the new ABUS Coronal Plane (Coronal Plane) view clearly shows the lightweight patch.
2. Separation of the ultrasound image cross-sectional and sagittal patches. The experimental results are shown in fig. 5 (c):
(1) Extracting 318 image sequences of the cross section of the ultrasonic image and 388 image sequences of the sagittal plane of the ultrasonic image, wherein the experimental result is shown in fig. 5 (a);
(2) Finding the position of the patch in each slice, and separating the patch in each slice by using an image preprocessing method based on Matlab, wherein the experimental result is shown in FIG. 5 (b);
(3) The actual shape of the patch is restored by back-filling each image, and the pixels of each image are adjusted, and the experimental result is shown in fig. 5 (c).
3. And establishing a dimensional model for the actual patch.
The sequence of pictures from the group of fig. 5 (c) was fused into a new three-dimensional model, the result of which is shown in fig. 6.
FIG. 3 is an example of the results of a three-dimensional visualization pre-study experiment of an in vivo lightweight patch based on time variation. (a) Ex vivo experimental box ABUS imaging results shown by three orthogonal plan views; (b) three-dimensional visualization of the ABUS imaging results. As shown in the figure, the in-vitro experiment performed by using the platform provides effective guarantee for the three-dimensional visualization of the in-vitro experiment box, so that the three-dimensional visualization effect of the fine light-weight mesh-shaped texture of the patch is achieved.
4. As can be seen in FIG. 7, the new ABUS Coronal/surgical Plane (Coronal Plane) view clearly shows the mesh texture of the lightweight patch (as indicated by the arrows in the figure) and the wavy contour of the patch due to post-operative shrinkage. The depth of the ABUS scan is 20mm. (a) The patches (indicated by arrows in the figure) are shown in three orthogonal planes. The corresponding depth of the current coronal view is 13.1mm. Note that the implant patch is accurately visible in the coronal and transverse planes, but only indirectly recognizable in the sagittal plane. (b) Coronal multi-slice views of the implant patch with slice spacing of 0.5mm. The net-like texture of the patch and the wavy contour of the patch due to post-operative shrinkage are clearly shown.
5. And (5) analyzing deviation. As can be seen in fig. 8, time-varying based in vivo lightweight patch shrinkage has been described and quantified. The colored areas represent local changes in the patch in the body. Blue indicates concave changes; green represents the patch area with unchanged surface; the yellow to red areas indicate the occurrence of the saliency. The loss of the surface patch is visible by dark grey.
The postoperative shrinkage rate degree of the patch reflects the activity degree of inflammatory reaction, and is a key index for evaluating hernia recurrence risk. Through the quantitative analysis of the post-operation characteristics of the light-weight patch, the accurate and quantitative assessment of the post-operation wrinkle rate of the light-weight patch is realized. The problem that the patch is easily affected by spatial transformation such as inclination, curling and shrinkage during artificial evaluation of the wrinkle rate of the postoperative patch is solved, and therefore accurate evaluation of hernia recurrence risk is achieved.
In all cases, ABUS clearly showed a lightweight patch. In this embodiment, all patches are successfully constructed and the projected areas of all patches are calculated. In the case of segmentation based on only one image direction (transverse or sagittal), the segmentation results deviate significantly from the actual patch size, especially in the case of heavy folding (up to 22.7%), see table 1 for details.
Figure BDA0002371651800000111
When considering cutting the image from two directions, the true area of the patch is highly correlated with the segmentation result, independent of the folding state. The maximum deviation of the measured values from the actual dimensions was only 3.6%.
In this example, eleven patients' patches were successfully separated from the surrounding tissue and a three-dimensional polygonal model was constructed with reference to two time points. On the fifth day, the mean surface area of the patch implant was 108.9cm 2 Patch size is from 79cm 2 To 126.2cm 2 (ii) a On day ninety, the average surface area of the patch implant was 86.9cm 2 Patch size is from 63cm 2 To 112cm 2 . The average shrinkage from day five to day ninety was 22cm2 (ranging from 12 cm) 2 -32.7cm 2 ) Or 20.2% (ranging from 9.7% to 29.4%), for details see table 2. The mean centroid shift on days five and ninety was 0.23cm (ranging from 0.19cm to 0.27 cm).
Figure BDA0002371651800000121
In the case of incisional hernia surgery, it is common to have a distance of 3 to 5cm between the edge of the patch and the center of the incisional hernia. The present invention demonstrates for the first time that in order to obtain the best surgical result, an average mesh reduction of 20.2% must be considered.
As can be seen from tables 1 and 2, time-dependent in vivo lightweight patch shrinkage can be quantified. The method not only effectively quantifies the shrinkage and the mobility of the patch, but also better maintains the texture information and the edge characteristic of the ultrasonic image. The ultrasonic image based on the method of the invention obtains better experimental results.
The invention is not limited to the foregoing embodiments. The invention extends to any novel feature or any novel combination of features disclosed in this specification, and to any novel method or process steps or any novel combination of steps disclosed.
