技术领域
本申请涉及医学成像技术领域,特别涉及一种结直肠癌胶原评价和预后预测装置和存储介质。
背景技术
结直肠癌是世界范围内最常见的恶性肿瘤之一,且近年来发病率上升趋势明显。在结直肠癌预测判断中TNM分期系统是当前临床最广泛运用的胶原评价和预后预测方法,即通过评估原发灶(Tumor)、淋巴结受累(Nodes)和远处转移(Metastasis)情况对肿瘤进行评估和分期,进而预测预后。
但是TNM分期系统仍具有一定的局限性。一方面,相同分期的患者,在接受相似的治疗方案后,其临床结局也差异很大,在Ⅱ、Ⅲ期结直肠癌中,这一差异更为突出。另一方面,TNM分期装置关注肿瘤自身特征,而缺乏对肿瘤微环境“土壤”的评估。因此,基于肿瘤微环境的预后策略有待进一步补充。
发明内容
本申请的目的在于提供一种结直肠癌胶原评价和预后预测装置和存储介质,其能够改善上述问题。
本申请的实施例是这样实现的:
第一方面,本申请提供一种计算机可读存储介质,其特征在于,所述计算机可读存储介质存储有计算机程序,所述计算机程序包括程序指令,所述程序指令当被处理器执行时使所述处理器执行以下步骤:
获取病理组织切片上目标成像区域的多光子成像图像,对所述多光子成像图像进行图像处理,将所述多光子成像图像划分为肿瘤中心区域、侵袭边缘区域和正常组织区域;
提取各个区域中的各项胶原特征参数值,根据所述胶原特征参数值分别计算出各个评分参数,所述评分参数包括各个区域的各项胶原特征参数平均值、区域间差异值和变异程度值;其中,所述区域间差异值为任意两个区域之间的所述胶原特征参数平均值之差值,所述变异程度值为其中两个所述区域间差异值的比值;
选取目标项胶原特征对应的所述评分参数进行胶原特征评分计算,得到所述病理组织切片的胶原特征评分;
联合患者的TNM分期信息和所述胶原特征评分进行预后预测。
可以理解,本申请公开了一种计算机可读存储介质。该计算机可读存储介质的内容被执行时可以对包含肿瘤环境信息的病理组织切片进行多光子成像,并进一步通过图像处理进行肿瘤微环境的病理学划分;分别从肿瘤组织、侵袭边缘、正常组织三个区域提取各项胶原特征参数值,比如形态学、能量、纹理特征参数;根据区域特征参数计算区域间差异和变异程度;建立胶原特征评分模型,通过模型纳入的胶原特征参数计算出胶原特征评分;该胶原特征评分能够很好地补充TNM分期系统对肿瘤微环境“土壤”的评估缺失,更加有效地为结直肠癌预后预测提供参考。
在本申请可选的实施例中,所述对所述多光子成像图像进行图像处理,将所述多光子成像图像划分为肿瘤中心区域、侵袭边缘区域和正常组织区域,包括:
提取出肿瘤和正常组织的交界线,确定包含所述肿瘤的区域为初始肿瘤中心区域,确定包含所述正常组织的区域为初始正常组织区域;
将所述交界线向所述初始肿瘤中心区域的方向平移第一距离后,形成第一边界线,将所述交界线向所述初始正常组织区域的方向平移第二距离后,形成第二边界线;
确定所述第一边界线和所述第二边界线之间的区域为所述侵袭边缘区域;
确定所述初始肿瘤中心区域中除所述侵袭边缘区域以外的区域为所述肿瘤中心区域,确定所述初始正常组织区域中除所述侵袭边缘区域以外的区域为所述正常组织区域。
在本申请可选的实施例中,所述提取各个区域中的各项胶原特征参数 值,根据所述胶原特征参数值分别计算出各个评分参数,包括:
在所述肿瘤中心区域内随机选取三个肿瘤中心子区域ROI1、ROI2、ROI3;计算三个所述肿瘤中心子区域的各项所述胶原特征参数值的平均值,作为所述肿瘤中心区域的各项所述胶原特征参数平均值;
在所述侵袭边缘区域内随机选取三个侵袭边缘子区域ROI4、ROI5、ROI6;计算三个所述侵袭边缘子区域的各项所述胶原特征参数值的平均值,作为所述侵袭边缘区域的各项所述胶原特征参数平均值;
在所述正常组织区域内随机选取三个正常组织子区域ROI7、ROI8、ROI9;计算三个所述正常组织子区域的各项所述胶原特征参数值的平均值,作为所述正常组织区域的各项所述胶原特征参数平均值。

具体实施方式
下面将结合本申请实施例中的附图,对本申请实施例中的技术方案进行清楚、完整地描述,显然,所描述的实施例仅仅是本申请一部分实施例,而不是全部的实施例。基于本申请中的实施例,本领域普通技术人员在没有作出创造性劳动前提下所获得的所有其他实施例,都属于本申请保护的范围。
TNM分期系统是国际上最为通用的肿瘤分期系统。TNM分期系统已经成为临床医生和医学科学工作者对于恶性肿瘤进行分期的标准方法,即通过评估原发灶(Tumor)、淋巴结受累(Nodes)和远处转移(Metastasis)情况对肿瘤进行评估和分期,进而预测预后。
但是TNM分期系统仍具有一定的局限性。一方面,相同分期的患者,在接受相似的治疗方案后,其临床结局也差异很大,在Ⅱ、Ⅲ期结直肠癌中,这一差异更为突出。另一方面,肿瘤并不是单一的肿瘤细胞的集合,还包括各种基质细胞、免疫细胞以及细胞外基质、微脉管等组成的肿瘤微环境,恶性肿瘤细胞相当于“种子”,肿瘤微环境相当于“土壤”,TNM分期系统关注肿瘤自身特征,而缺乏对肿瘤微环境这一“土壤”的评估。因此,基于肿瘤微环境的预后策略有待进一步补充。
第一方面,如图1所示,本申请提供一种计算机可读存储介质,所述 计算机可读存储介质存储有计算机程序,所述计算机程序包括程序指令,所述程序指令当被处理器执行时使所述处理器执行以下步骤:
110、获取病理组织切片上目标成像区域的多光子成像图像,对多光子成像图像进行图像处理,将多光子成像图像划分为肿瘤中心区域、侵袭边缘区域和正常组织区域。
为了能够补充TNM分期系统对肿瘤微环境“土壤”的评估缺失,上述病理组织切片上目标成像区域需要是处于肿瘤交界处的区域。上述病理组织切片的获取方法包括:将结直肠癌手术标本进行常规病理蜡块制备,选取肿瘤交界处的蜡块,连续切片2张,切片厚度为4μm,其中第一张进行HE染色,第二张作为上述病理组织切片准备进行多光子成像。上述目标成像区域的确定方法包括:通过数字切片扫描系统PRECICE 600对第一张切片进行20倍扫描,选择浸润深度较深的肿瘤交界区域作为上述交界区域;在第二张切片上与该交界区域的对应区域确定为目标成像区域,该目标成像区域的大小一般选为5mm*5mm。
上述多光子成像图像可以由Zeiss LSM 880 with Airyscan多光子共聚焦激光扫描系统对目标成像区域进行20倍扫描后获取。
多光子成像是一种基于非线性光学和飞秒激光镭射之上的多光子显微成像技术,其利用活体组织细胞本身内在的自体荧光及胶原产生的二次谐波进行成像,可无需染色直接获得组织及细胞的胶原组织学特征。基质胶原是肿瘤微环境结构的重要组成部分,参与肿瘤发生、发展的多个过程并影响预后,肿瘤微环境中的高胶原含量与不良预后相关。
如图2所示,ZEN软件(Zen 2.3 lite,Carl Zeiss Microscopy GmbH,2011)完成上述肿瘤中心(Center of Tumor,CT)区域、正常组织(Normal tissue,N)区域和侵袭边缘(Invasive Margin,IM)区域的划分。
120、提取各个区域中的各项胶原特征参数值,根据胶原特征参数值分别计算出各个评分参数,评分参数包括各个区域的各项胶原特征参数平均值、区域间差异值和变异程度值。
其中,区域间差异值为任意两个区域之间的胶原特征参数平均值之差值,变异程度值为其中两个区域间差异值的比值。
对各个区域中的各项胶原特征参数值提取可以由Matlab R2015b (MathWorks)软件完成。从上述多光子成像图像中一般可以提取出8项形态学特征参数、6项强度特征参数和128项纹理特征参数,共142项胶原特征参数。
其中,胶原形态学特征参数包括:胶原面积(Collagen area)、胶原纤维数量(Collagen fiber number)、胶原纤维长度(Collagen fiber length)、胶原纤维宽度(Collagen fiber width)、胶原纤维直线度(Collagen fiber straightness)、胶原纤维交联密度(Collagen crosslink density)、胶原纤维交联空间(Collagen crosslink space)和胶原排列方向(Collagen orientation)。
其中,胶原强度特征参数由柱状图来分析,胶原强度特征参数包括:柱状图均值(Histogram mean)、柱状图方差(Histogram Variance)、柱状图偏度(Histogram Skewness)、柱状图峰度(Histogram Kurtosis)、柱状图能量(Histogram Energy)和柱状图熵(Histogram Entropy)。
其中,胶原结构特征参数包括80个灰度共生矩阵(Gray-level co-occurrence matrix,GLCM)的纹理参数和48个Gabor小波变换参数(Gabor wavelet transform)。通过计算1、2、3、4和5号位置的5个像素以及0°、45°、90°和135°的4个不同方向上的对比度、相关性、能量和均匀性来计算上述80个GLCM。再通过4个不同尺度和5个不同方向的均值和方差,得到48个Gabor小波变换参数。
针对各个区域的各项胶原特征参数平均值的计算,如图3所示,可以由ZEN软件(Zen 2.3lite,Carl Zeiss Microscopy GmbH,2011)完成兴趣区域(Region of Interest,ROI)的选择。在肿瘤中心区域、侵袭边缘区域和正常组织区域内分别随机取3个ROI,得到共9个ROI,ROI大小为844像素×844像素(约700μm×700μm)。随后分别计算肿瘤中心、侵袭边缘和正常组织三个区域内ROI所提取的142项胶原特征参数值的平均值作为该区域的各项胶原特征参数平均值。根据区域特征计算出胶原参数的区域间差异和变异程度。
130、选取目标项胶原特征对应的评分参数进行胶原特征评分计算,得到病理组织切片的胶原特征评分。
如图5所示为本申请公开的计算机可读存储介质与TNM分期系统胶 原评价和预后预测方法的接受者操作特性曲线(receiver operating characteristic curve,ROC)示意图。ROC曲线,又称为感受性曲线(sensitivity curve),得此名的原因在于曲线上各点反映着相同的感受性,它们都是对同一信号刺激的反应,只不过是在几种不同的判定标准下所得的结果而已。接受者操作特性曲线就是以虚惊概率为横轴,击中概率为纵轴所组成的坐标图,和被试在特定刺激条件下由于采用不同的判断标准得出的不同结果画出的曲线。AUC(Area Under Curve)被定义为ROC曲线下与坐标轴围成的面积,显然这个面积的数值不会大于1。又由于ROC曲线一般都处于y=x这条直线的上方,所以AUC的取值范围在0.5和1之间。AUC越接近1.0,检测方法真实性越高;等于0.5时,则真实性最低,无应用价值。
由图5可以看出,TNM分期系统胶原评价和预后预测方法所得出的患者5年无病生存率(disease free survival,DFS)的AUC仅为0.674(图5中TNM线所示);通过本申请所公开的计算机可读存储介质所得出的患者5年无病生存率的AUC显著提升为0.742(图5中TNM+CS TME线所示)。由此可以看出,本申请所公开的计算机可读存储介质的预测效能更高。
可以理解,本申请公开了一种计算机可读存储介质。该方法对包含肿瘤环境信息的病理组织切片进行多光子成像,并进一步通过图像处理进行肿瘤微环境的病理学划分;分别从肿瘤组织、侵袭边缘、正常组织三个区域提取各项胶原特征参数值,比如形态学、能量、纹理特征参数;根据区域特征计算区域间差异和变异程度;建立胶原特征评分模型,通过模型纳入的胶原特征参数计算出胶原特征评分;该胶原特征评分能够很好地补充TNM分期系统对肿瘤微环境“土壤”的评估缺失,更加有效地为结直肠癌预后预测提供参考。
在本申请可选的实施例中,步骤“对多光子成像图像进行图像处理,将多光子成像图像划分为肿瘤中心区域、侵袭边缘区域和正常组织区域”可以由ZEN软件(Zen 2.3 lite,Carl Zeiss Microscopy GmbH,2011)完成,该步骤具体包括:
111、提取出肿瘤和正常组织的交界线,确定包含肿瘤的区域为初始 肿瘤中心区域,确定包含正常组织的区域为初始正常组织区域。
其中,可以通过图像算法提取肿瘤和正常组织的交界线,如图2中的虚线所示,虚线左侧为上述初始肿瘤中心区域,虚线右侧则为上述初始正常组织区域。
112、将交界线向初始肿瘤中心区域的方向平移第一距离后,形成第一边界线,将交界线向初始正常组织区域的方向平移第二距离后,形成第二边界线。
一般来说,可以将交界线向初始肿瘤中心区域的方向平移500μm形成第一边界线L1(如图2所示),将交界线向初始正常组织区域的方向平移500μm形成第二边界线L2(如图2所示)。
113、确定第一边界线和第二边界线之间的区域为侵袭边缘区域。
如图2中的侵袭边缘(Invasive Margin,IM)区域所示。
114、确定初始肿瘤中心区域中除侵袭边缘区域以外的区域为肿瘤中心区域,确定初始正常组织区域中除侵袭边缘区域以外的区域为正常组织区域。
如图2中的肿瘤中心(Center of Tumor,CT)区域和正常组织(Normal tissue,N)区域所示。
在本申请可选的实施例中,步骤120具体包括:
121、计算肿瘤中心区域和侵袭边缘区域的各项胶原特征参数平均值之差,作为第一区域间差值。
122、计算侵袭边缘区域和正常组织区域的各项胶原特征参数平均值之差,作为第二区域间差值。
123、计算肿瘤中心区域和正常组织区域的各项胶原特征参数平均值之差,作为第三区域间差值。
124、将第一区域间差值与第三区域间差值的比值作为区域间变异程度值。
可以理解,计算区域间差值和区域间变异程度值有利于多维地对肿瘤微环境胶原特征进行分析。其中,区域间变异程度值小于或等于1时,说明肿瘤微环境中肿瘤中心区域至侵袭边缘区域至正常组织区域为同一趋势变化,区域间变异程度较低;区域间变异程度值大于1时,说明肿瘤微 环境中肿瘤中心区域至侵袭边缘区域至正常组织区域非同一趋势变化,区域间变异程度较高。
在本申请可选的实施例中,步骤130具体包括:
通过LASSO回归算法构建胶原特征评分模型如下式:

获得胶原评分后,医生可以联合患者的TNM分期信息和胶原特征评分进行预后预测。具体包括:
141、联合TNM分期项目和胶原特征评分项目建立生存列线图。
步骤141所建立的生存列线图如图4所示。生存列线图包括平行建立分项分数线段、T分期线段、N分期线段、胶原特征评分线段;其中,所述分项分数线段上均匀排布有0分到10分之间的各个分数值;所述T分期线段中的T1/2点、T3点、T4a点和T4b点分别对应所述分项分数线段的0分点、4.8分点、6.6分点、8.3分点;所述N分期线段中的N0点、N1/N1c点、N2a点和N2b点分别对应所述分项分数线段的0分点、2.5分点、3.4分点、5.3分点;所述胶原特征评分线段上均匀排布有-1.8分到0.2分之间的各个分数值,其中0.2分点和2.4分点分别与所述分项分数线段的0分点和10分点对应。

142、将联合患者的TNM分期信息和胶原特征评分带入生存列线图进行预后预测,得到患者的无病生存率。
举例说明,患者甲计算得到的胶原特征评分为2.305,T分期为T4a,N分期为N1。根据胶原特征评分与该患者的TNM分期,通过图4所示的列线图评估发现,患者术后(尤其是3年后)出现复发、转移或肿瘤相关死亡的可能性较大,建议加强随访密度、增加术后复查内容和次数,选择较为积极的辅助治疗策略。
