用自监督方法从超声数据重建骨骼表面,解决不完整图像带来的误差问题。
UltraBoneUDF: Self-supervised Bone Surface Reconstruction from Ultrasound Based on Neural Unsigned Distance Functions
- 基于神经无符号距离函数,从3D超声数据学习骨骼表面形状。
- 新设计的局部切平面损失使重建精度提升,三组数据平均误差降低25.5%。
- 适合临床超声导航与骨科手术规划,对操作者差异不敏感。
骨骼表面重建是计算机辅助骨科手术(CAOS)的关键环节,为术前规划与术中引导提供基础。相较于传统成像方式如CT和MRI,超声是一种无辐射、低成本且便携的新兴技术。然而,由于超声成像固有局限,通常仅能捕捉部分骨表面,且操作者间/内差异进一步增加数据复杂性。现有重建方法难以应对此类挑战,常导致误差大、存在孔洞或结构膨胀等问题。本文提出UltraBoneUDF,一种专为超声数据设计的自监督框架,通过学习3D超声中的无符号距离函数(UDF)实现开放骨表面重建。引入基于局部切平面优化的新损失函数,显著提升重建质量。在三个开源数据集上进行基准测试并开展消融实验。定性结果显示当前先进方法存在明显缺陷;定量上,UltraBoneUDF在三组数据上的双向切比雪夫距离分别达1.60 mm(UltraBones100k,约25.5%改善)、0.21 mm(OpenBoneCT)和0.18 mm(ClosedBoneCT),参数更少,性能更优。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Bone surface reconstruction is an essential component of computer-assisted orthopedic surgery(CAOS), forming the foundation for both preoperative planning and intraoperative guidance. Compared to traditional imaging modalities such as computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI),ultrasound, an emerging CAOS technology, provides a radiation-free, cost-effective, and portable alternative. While ultrasound offers new opportunities in CAOS, technical shortcomings continue to hinder its translation into surgery. In particular, due to the inherent limitations of ultrasound imaging, B-mode ultrasound typically captures only partial bone surfaces. The inter- and intra-operator variability in ultrasound scanning further increases the complexity of the data. Existing reconstruction methods struggle with such challenging data, leading to increased reconstruction errors and artifacts, such as holes and inflated structures. Effective techniques for accurately reconstructing open bone surfaces from real-world 3D ultrasound volumes remain lacking. We propose UltraBoneUDF, a self-supervised framework specifically designed for reconstructing open bone surfaces from ultrasound data. It learns unsigned distance functions (UDFs) from 3D ultrasound data. In addition, we present a novel loss function based on local tangent plane optimization that substantially improves surface reconstruction quality. UltraBoneUDF and competing models are benchmarked on three open-source datasets and further evaluated through ablation studies. Qualitative results demonstrate the limitations of the state-of-the-art methods. Quantitatively, UltraBoneUDF achieves comparable or lower bi-directional Chamfer distance across three datasets with fewer parameters: 1.60 mm on the UltraBones100k dataset (~25.5% improvement), 0.21 mm on the OpenBoneCT dataset, and 0.18 mm on the ClosedBoneCT dataset.
