提出新框架FiRework,提升复杂形变图像配准精度与效率

FiRework: Field Refinement Framework for Efficient Enhancement of Deformable Registration

  • 采用分层精修机制替代连续形变,减少误差累积
  • 仅需单级递归训练,推理过程连续且高效
  • 适用于脑部MRI配准,适合追求高精度的医学影像研究者

可变形图像配准在临床中仍具挑战性,尤其面对复杂形变时。现有基于深度学习的方法使用连续形变建模大形变,常导致误差累积与插值不准确,且需大量级联阶段,计算开销大。为此,我们提出面向无监督可变形配准的新框架FiRework,重新设计连续形变结构以缓解上述问题。其特点为:训练仅需一级递归,支持连续推理,显著提升效率。我们在两个脑部MRI数据集上对两种现有配准网络进行了增强,实验结果表明本框架在可变形配准任务中表现更优。代码已公开于https://github.com/ZAX130/FiRework。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Deformable image registration remains a fundamental task in clinical practice, yet solving registration problems involving complex deformations remains challenging. Current deep learning-based registration methods employ continuous deformation to model large deformations, which often suffer from accumulated registration errors and interpolation inaccuracies. Moreover, achieving satisfactory results with these frameworks typically requires a large number of cascade stages, demanding substantial computational resources. Therefore, we propose a novel approach, the field refinement framework (FiRework), tailored for unsupervised deformable registration, aiming to address these challenges. In FiRework, we redesign the continuous deformation framework to mitigate the aforementioned errors. Notably, our FiRework requires only one level of recursion during training and supports continuous inference, offering improved efficacy compared to continuous deformation frameworks. We conducted experiments on two brain MRI datasets, enhancing two existing deformable registration networks with FiRework. The experimental results demonstrate the superior performance of our proposed framework in deformable registration. The code is publicly available at https://github.com/ZAX130/FiRework.
