The embodiment of the disclosure provides a method for accurately displaying a stent of an angiography image, which can be applied to an accurately displaying device of the stent of the angiography image. As shown in fig. 1, the fine display method includes steps S101 to S105.
Step S101: in the case of an endovascular deployment of the deployment stent 1 and a retraction of the balloon 2 to be retracted, a sequence of contrast images of the target vessel is acquired, the target vessel moving with a physiological periodic movement.
Specifically, the sequence of contrast images acquires images of the stent 1 in the target vessel that have been in a deployed state under the effect of inflation of the balloon 2, and the balloon 2 has been contracted in a decompressed state but not withdrawn. It should be noted that, implantation of the stent 1 can be achieved through a plurality of interventional instruments such as the guide wire 3 and the balloon 2, specifically, the balloon 2 can be threaded on the guide wire 3, the stent 1 is delivered to the stenotic lesion of the target vessel, and the stent 1 is expanded at the stenotic lesion of the target vessel by pressurizing the balloon 2. Specifically, in conjunction with fig. 2, the balloon 2 shown in fig. 2 is pressurized, while the stent 1 is forced to expand within the target vessel. After the stent 1 is fully expanded, the balloon 2 is decompressed, so that the balloon 2 is contracted, and then the balloon 2 and the guide wire 3 are retracted, so that the implantation of the stent 1 is completed, and the blood flow supply is improved. The sequence of contrast images acquired by the present disclosure is acquired without retracting the balloon 2 and guidewire 3. In particular, and with reference to fig. 3, the balloon 2 is shown in fig. 3 in a state that it has been contracted and is to be retracted.
Specifically, the above-mentioned sequence of the contrast images of the target blood vessel may be acquired with the patient in different positions, or the patient may be in the same position but the target blood vessel moves along with the physiological periodic movement due to the movement characteristics of the target blood vessel itself.
Step S102: for each of the contrast images, two balloon-marked points near both ends in the longitudinal direction of the balloon 2 are extracted.
Specifically, the above-mentioned balloon mark points are understood to be metal weld points marked as radio-opaque on the balloon 2, the two balloon mark points being located near both ends in the length direction of the balloon 2, respectively, and the position of the balloon 2 can be basically determined by extracting the two balloon mark points.
In some alternative embodiments, the two balloon-marking points may be extracted by a bottom cap operation and a local minimum algorithm, and the balloon-marking points may also be extracted by other operation methods, which is not specifically limited in the present disclosure, and two balloon-marking points may be accurately extracted.
Step S103: for each contrast image, a target area surrounding the balloon 2 is determined based on the extracted two balloon-marker points.
In some alternative embodiments, after the target area surrounding the balloon 2 is determined in each map, the target area that does not conform to the movement characteristics may be removed according to the movement characteristics of the target blood vessel, and only the target area that conforms to the movement characteristics of the target blood vessel may be calculated later.
Step S104: for each contrast image, a skeleton line of the balloon 2 is determined based on the target region.
Specifically, the skeleton line of the balloon 2 may be understood as a curve formed after the balloon 2 is contracted, or may be understood as a curve of the guide wire 3 penetrating the balloon 2. By determining the skeleton lines on the respective contrast images, the position and curve of the balloon 2 in the target vessel can be determined.
Step S105: elastic registration and fusion of the contrast images are performed based on the skeleton lines of the balloon 2 of each contrast image, thereby obtaining the target image of the fine display stent 1.
Therefore, by elastically registering and fusing a plurality of contrast images on the skeleton lines of the saccule 2 of each contrast image, the robustness of the image intensity value in the contrast image around the area corresponding to the bracket 1 is enhanced, the target image which is displayed by background desalination and enhanced by the bracket 1 can be obtained, the fine display effect of the bracket 1 on the target image is realized, and meanwhile, the processing efficiency is also improved.
The present disclosure obtains a sequence of contrast images of a target vessel by arranging the deployment stent 1 within the target vessel and contracting the balloon 2 to be retracted, and extracts balloon marker points for the sequence of contrast images to determine a target region surrounding the balloon 2 and a skeleton line of the balloon 2. The skeleton line of the balloon 2 in the contracted state to be withdrawn, as shown in fig. 3, accurately anchors the region where the stent 1 is located, because the stent 1 is almost stationary with respect to the skeleton line of the balloon 2 during image acquisition, and the physiological tissue (such as a blood vessel) of the background portion is significantly moved with respect to the skeleton line along with the physiological periodic movement. The elastic registration and fusion of a plurality of contrast images are carried out based on the skeleton line, so that the image intensity value of the region where the bracket 1 is located can be subjected to robustness and reinforcement, the background is relatively desalted, the target image of the bracket 1 is accurately displayed, namely the bracket 1 is more clearly displayed on the target image, a better accurate display effect is achieved, the time for obtaining the target image of the accurate display result of the bracket 1 is approximately within 5 seconds, and the clinical real-time requirement can be fully met. In this way, correct placement of the stent 1 and inspection of the deployment of the stent 1 is facilitated, as well as fine control of the stent 1 is achieved.
In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 4, the elastic registration and fusion of the contrast images is performed based on the skeleton line of the balloon 2 of each contrast image in step S105, specifically including steps S201 to S206.
Step S201: a reference image is selected from the sequence of contrast images.
Step S202: a curved coordinate system is determined based on the skeleton lines of the balloon 2 in the respective contrast images.
Step S203: and determining the mapping relation between the first coordinates of each point in the reference image in the curve coordinate system and the positions of the corresponding points in the reference image.
Step S204: for each contrast image to be elastically registered and fused with the reference image, a second coordinate of the point in the curved coordinate system is determined based on the position of the point in the contrast image.
Step S205: and determining the corresponding position of the point in the reference image by using the mapping relation based on the second coordinates of the point, thereby obtaining a group of registration points corresponding to each position in the reference image.
Step S206: and carrying out weighted summation on the intensity values of the alignment points of the corresponding group on each position in the reference image.
In some alternative embodiments, after step S206 is performed, the result of the weighted summation may be histogram equalized to stretch the contrast, so as to obtain the target image of the fine display bracket 1.
In particular, after determining the skeleton line of the balloon 2, for the sake of convenient registration, for each frame of image of the sequence of contrast images a skeleton line-based coordinate system is established, the curve hereinafter being understood as the skeleton line described above. As shown in fig. 5, first, let P be a point on the image, d 1 Is the distance from the point to the curve, F p Is the projection point of the P point on the curve, O t Marking points M for two balloons 1 And M 2 At the midpoint of the curve, let d 2 Is O t To F p Is a curved distance of (2). Each point P corresponds to one (d 1 ,d 2 ) Thus we can build a curve-based coordinate system, let (d) 1 ,d 2 ) Consider the coordinates of point P in this coordinate system. To avoid ambiguity, for d 1 And d 2 Specifying that it takes positive and negativeConditions. Is provided withIs F p Normal vector of the plot ∈ ->Is F p The tangential vector at the position is set to d 1 Is the cross of the positive and negative sum vectors of (2)>Is consistent with the positive and negative of (a). For d 2 Setting Ot as the origin of the abscissa of the curve, O t To M 1 Is the positive direction, O t To M 2 Is a negative direction.
Further, provideThe t frame image is I t ,T t Is I t Last point P' t To a curve coordinate system (d 1 ,d 2 ) Mapping of->Is T t From the inverse mapping of the curve coordinate system (d 1 ,d 2 ) To point P' t Mapping of->Andand the same is true. The idea of registration is that the points on the image to be registered are mapped to a curve coordinate system to obtain curve coordinates, and then the curve coordinates are inversely mapped back to the reference image, so that the corresponding points of the points on the image to be registered on the reference image are obtained. Image settingThe upper point P is in image I t Upper corresponding registration point P' t The method comprises the following steps:
image I t Any point P 'above' t To an imageThe transformation of the upper corresponding registration point P is:
each image I in the image sequence t Each point is transformed as above to obtain a corresponding set of registration points P to be recorded asFor all I in the image sequence t Is transformed to obtain +.>Fusion was performed and the result was obtained using I enhanced The fusion method is represented by adding and taking the average value:
by the method of superposition and averaging after registration, the background part of the image is desalted, and the structure of the bracket 1 is relatively enhanced for display, so that the bracket 1 can realize precise display in the obtained target image.
In some alternative embodiments, I will be enhanced Histogram equalization is performed to stretch the contrast, thereby obtaining a final bracket 1 refined image.
In some embodiments, the curvilinear coordinate system includes a first coordinate indicating a directed distance between the point and a projected point on the skeleton line and a second coordinate indicating a directed distance between a midpoint between the two balloon-marker points along the skeleton line and the projected point.
Illustratively, as shown in FIG. 5, P is a point on the image, d 1 Is the distance from the P point to the curve, F p Is the projection point of the P point on the curve, O t Marking points M for two balloons 1 And M 2 At the midpoint of the curve, let d 2 Is O t To F p Is a curved distance of (2). d, d 1 And d 2 May be defined as a directed distance. For example, d thereof 1 And d 2 The positive and negative of (c) can be defined as follows. Is provided withIs F p Normal vector of the plot ∈ ->Is F p The tangential vector at the position is set to d 1 Is the cross of the positive and negative sum vectors of (2)>Is consistent with the positive and negative of (a). For d 2 Setting O t Is the origin of the abscissa of the curve, O t To M 1 Is the positive direction, O t To M 2 Is a negative direction.
In some embodiments, the target vessel comprises a coronary artery and the physiologically periodic motion comprises a cardiac cycle. This is by way of example only, where the physiological periodic motion includes respiratory cycles, and the like, and the target vessel may also include vessels at other sites, such as pulmonary arteries, and the like.
Since the stent 1 is almost static relative to the skeleton line of the balloon 2 and the other background parts are moving relative to the skeleton line of the balloon 2 due to heart beating in the image acquisition process, the background parts of the images are desalted by the method of superposition averaging after registration, and the structure of the stent 1 is relatively enhanced for displaying the accurately displayed target image, so that the stent 1 can be more intuitively and clearly displayed on the target image for the condition that the target blood vessel comprises coronary artery.
In some embodiments, determining the skeleton line of the balloon 2 for each contrast image of step S104 based on the target region specifically includes:
based on the target region, a fitting curve is determined for the balloon 2 as the skeleton line using a Hessian matrix.
In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 6, the determining a fitting curve for the balloon 2 using a Hessian matrix as the skeleton line based on the target area specifically includes steps S301 to S304.
Step S301: and determining a plurality of scale factors in a preset value range.
Step S302: and calculating characteristic values respectively corresponding to the determined scale factors by using the Hessian matrix.
Step S303: and calculating a first output value of a similarity function of the pixel points in the image of the target area under each scale factor.
Step S304: a fitted curve corresponding to the balloon 2 within the target region is determined based on the respective first output values. The method comprises the steps of carrying out a first treatment on the surface of the
Specifically, the scale factor may be initialized to δ, and a range of values for the scale space may be set, for example, a preset range of values is an integer between 1 and 5. For each scale factor, computing the convolution of the image with the gaussian filter second order partial derivative, constituting a Hessian matrix:
wherein;
wherein; delta is a scale factor, G (x, y; delta) is a two-dimensional Gaussian function, and the expression is:
calculating eigenvalue lambda of Hessian matrix based on the above formula 1 And lambda (lambda) 2
Further, calculating the output z (x, y, delta) of the similarity function of the pixel point under the scale factor by adopting the following formula;
wherein, let two eigenvalues of Hessian matrix H (x, y) be lambda respectively 1 And lambda (lambda) 2 (|λ 1 |<|λ 2 |) is provided; parameter R b Lambda of 1 And lambda (lambda) 2 Is the ratio of the modes of (a); s represents the norm of the matrix, its value being equal to the square root of the sum of the modular squares of the two eigenvaluesBeta and c are the control linear filter pair R b And a parameter of S sensitivity. Thus, the calculation of all scale factors in the scale space is completed.
In some embodiments, the determining, in step S304, a fitting curve corresponding to the balloon 2 in the target area based on the respective first output values specifically includes:
determining a maximum first output value in the first output values of the pixel points corresponding to the scale factors;
determining a second output value based on the maximum first output value and a scale factor corresponding to the maximum first output value;
performing binarization calculation on the second output value to obtain a region covered by the balloon 2;
and extracting a central line of the area covered by the balloon 2, wherein the central line is a fitting curve corresponding to the balloon 2 in the target area, and determining the fitting curve as the skeleton line.
Specifically, the maximum first output value z (x, y, delta) of the pixel point under different scale factors is calculated as the maximum first output value I of the point seg (x,y):
I seg (x,y)=max[z(x,y,δ)]The method comprises the steps of carrying out a first treatment on the surface of the Formula (11)
After determining the maximum first output value, the maximum first output value I seg (x, y) multiplied by the square of the current pixel scaling factor as a second output value. And for the second output value, after binarization calculation is used and the tiny noise is removed by taking the maximum connected domain, the area covered by the balloon 2 can be obtained.
Further, after the area covered by the balloon 2 is obtained, the center line of the area covered by the balloon 2 may be extracted, that is, a fitting curve corresponding to the balloon 2 in the target area may be obtained, and the fitting curve may be determined as the skeleton line, so that the skeleton line of the balloon 2 on each of the radiography images may be determined.
In some embodiments, for each contrast image, step S103, determining a target area surrounding the balloon 2 based on the extracted two balloon-marker points, specifically includes:
determining a plurality of gray level change extreme points in the vertical direction between the two balloon mark points;
sequentially connecting a plurality of gray level change extreme points to obtain a first curve corresponding to the shape of the balloon 2;
and determining the target area according to the first curve.
After the two balloon marking points are determined, the gray level change is determined within a certain range in the vertical direction of a line segment connecting the two balloon marking pointsLocal extremum points. Since the region edge corresponding to the balloon is also largely changed in gradation, the local extreme point of the gradation change may be a point on the balloon (or a tissue with a strong edge such as a rib). In this way, by determining a plurality of gradation change extreme points in the vertical direction between two balloon-marking points, the position of the balloon can be further determined, and thereby the target region including the balloon and the balloon-marking points can be determined. Specifically, after calculating the extreme point of the gray level change in the vertical direction between the two balloon-marked points, the extreme points may be connected in parallel to obtain a first curve l mark According to the first curve l mark And determining the target area.
For example, a first curve l may be used mark The midpoint of the graph is l mark-center Centered at l respectively mark Direction sum l mark Is extended in the vertical direction of (1) mark 1/3 of the length of the image, a target region of the contrast image is obtained.
