Description

Method for automatically delineating contour lines of normal organs in medical imaging

Technical field

The invention relates to the technical field of medical image processing, in particular to a method for automatically delineating contour lines of normal organs in medical images.

Background technique

Radiotherapy is currently one of the three important methods of clinical tumor treatment. In radiotherapy, the delineation of target areas and organs at risk has a crucial influence on the accuracy of radiotherapy. At present, the contours of target areas and organs at risk are mainly obtained by doctors manually delineating the contours of the target areas and organs at risk in clinic. Manual sketching by doctors has the following drawbacks: 1. The sketching efficiency is low; 2. It is heavily dependent on the doctor's clinical experience; 3. The reproducibility is poor, and the results of the sketching by different doctors at different times and different conditions are inconsistent. Therefore, there is an urgent need for accurate and fast automatic medical image segmentation algorithms to reduce the burden on doctors and improve the accuracy and automation of normal organ segmentation in medical images.

The atlas-based segmentation method is a popular method for automatic delineation of normal organs in medical imaging, especially in the medical imaging of head and neck tumors. Because the head and neck structure has a relatively fixed positional relationship, atlas-based segmentation The method has a good performance in the segmentation of normal organs of the head and neck. Atlas-based segmentation methods are generally divided into single atlas and multiple atlas methods. However, the single atlas segmentation method is very sensitive to the choice of atlas and the difference in the anatomical structure of the patient. When the target image is significantly different from the atlas, the single atlas method may fail to segment. The multi-atlas segmentation method can reduce the sensitivity to the difference between atlas and patients, and has higher segmentation accuracy than single atlas, but the segmentation efficiency is lower. In addition, the atlas-based segmentation method relies on image registration algorithms, which may introduce additional registration errors. The atlas-based normal organ segmentation method has many defects and cannot meet clinical needs. In recent years, machine learning and deep learning, especially convolutional neural networks (Convolutional Neural Network, CNN) have achieved great success in the fields of image classification, computer vision, and target extraction. Many researchers also apply it to the segmentation of medical images. For example, in 2017, Ibragimov, B and others proposed a head and neck normal organ segmentation method based on convolutional neural networks [Ibragimov B and Xing L 2017 Segmentation of organs-at-risks in head and neck CT images using convolutional neural networks ,Medical physics 44 547-57], and applied it to the automatic segmentation of 9 normal organs in head and neck medical imaging. The method consists of the following steps: (1) Roughly determine the region of interest of the target normal organ according to the relative positional relationship between the normal brain organs and the center coordinates of the brain; (2) Based on the target pixel points and background in the target normal organ region of interest The image patch where the pixel is located is trained on a classification model based on a convolutional neural network; (3) Then, all pixels are classified on the region of interest of the target normal organ on the image to be segmented, so as to realize the normal organ in the image (4) Finally, use Markov random field to post-process the segmentation results to remove some over-segmented pixels. This method uses the fixed position relationship of the normal organs of the brain to roughly determine the region of interest, and uses the results drawn by the doctor to train the normal organ segmentation model to realize the automatic segmentation of multiple normal organs in the head and neck.

Compared with the traditional normal organ segmentation method based on atlas, this method has higher segmentation accuracy on most normal organs, but the image segmentation method based on convolutional neural network is based on the characteristics of the data drawn by the doctor to learn the target. Therefore, the target area can be better recognized and segmented from the image, while the contrast of the image such as the optic nerve and the optic chiasm is low, and the smaller normal organs have less effective information on the image. Therefore, the conventional patch-based method still has low accuracy in segmentation on such normal organs. Moreover, the image contrast is low, which makes the image segmentation of small normal organs more dependent on the three-dimensional image environment, but the current hardware level is difficult to support the training of the convolutional neural network model under the large three-dimensional image matrix, so It is still a very challenging problem to segment the target normal organs of different sizes and different gray levels from clinical medical images.

MR is a method of medical examination and a revolution in medical imaging. Biological tissues can be penetrated by short-wave components in the electromagnetic spectrum such as X-rays, but can block mid-wave components such as ultraviolet, infrared and long waves. Human tissue allows long-wave components such as radio waves generated by magnetic resonance to pass through, which is one of the basic conditions for magnetic resonance in clinical applications. PET is a relatively advanced clinical examination imaging technology in the field of nuclear medicine. Normal range PET is especially suitable for early diagnosis of disease, discovery of subclinical lesions and evaluation of treatment effect before there is no morphological change. At present, PET has shown particularly important value in the diagnosis and treatment of the three major types of diseases: tumor, coronary heart disease and brain disease.

In step S1 of the embodiment of the present invention, preprocessing the patient image includes: resampling and image gray normalization.

Step S2: Divide all normal organs to be segmented into groups (for example: level 1: all normal organs; level 2: normal organs partition; level 3: normal organ sub-partitions; level 4: normal organs), and adopt an iterative method Gradually locate the target normal organ sub-region;
