首个公开的腕骨实例分割与骨侵蚀评分数据集,助力类风湿关节炎影像研究。
RAM-W600: A Multi-Task Wrist Dataset and Benchmark for Rheumatoid Arthritis

- 构建多任务腕部X光数据集,支持骨骼实例分割与骨侵蚀评分
- 涵盖1048张影像、618张像素级标注、800张骨侵蚀评分
- 适用于类风湿关节炎进展评估及腕部骨折等其他任务
类风湿关节炎(RA)是一种常见自身免疫病,常通过常规放射摄影(CR)进行筛查与评估。腕部是诊断关键区域,但因小骨密集、关节间隙狭窄、结构复杂且重叠频繁,需深厚解剖学知识才能精准标注。此外,疾病进展导致骨赘、骨侵蚀(BE)甚至骨性强直,改变骨形态,增加标注难度,需风湿病学专业知识。本研究发布首个公开的腕部多任务数据集,包含两项任务:(1)腕骨实例分割,(2)Sharp/van der Heijde(SvdH)骨侵蚀评分。数据集来自六家医疗中心,共1048张腕部常规放射影像,覆盖388名患者,其中618张具像素级实例分割标注,800张具SvdH BE评分。该数据集可支持关节间隙狭窄(JSN)进展量化、骨侵蚀检测、骨畸形评估及骨赘检测等多项研究,亦可用于腕部骨折定位等任务。我们期望其显著降低类风湿关节炎影像研究门槛,推动计算机辅助诊断发展。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a common autoimmune disease that has been the focus of research in computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) and disease monitoring. In clinical settings, conventional radiography (CR) is widely used for the screening and evaluation of RA due to its low cost and accessibility. The wrist is a critical region for the diagnosis of RA. However, CAD research in this area remains limited, primarily due to the challenges in acquiring high-quality instance-level annotations. (i) The wrist comprises numerous small bones with narrow joint spaces, complex structures, and frequent overlaps, requiring detailed anatomical knowledge for accurate annotation. (ii) Disease progression in RA often leads to osteophyte, bone erosion (BE), and even bony ankylosis, which alter bone morphology and increase annotation difficulty, necessitating expertise in rheumatology. This work presents a multi-task dataset for wrist bone in CR, including two tasks: (i) wrist bone instance segmentation and (ii) Sharp/van der Heijde (SvdH) BE scoring, which is the first public resource for wrist bone instance segmentation. This dataset comprises 1048 wrist conventional radiographs of 388 patients from six medical centers, with pixel-level instance segmentation annotations for 618 images and SvdH BE scores for 800 images. This dataset can potentially support a wide range of research tasks related to RA, including joint space narrowing (JSN) progression quantification, BE detection, bone deformity evaluation, and osteophyte detection. It may also be applied to other wrist-related tasks, such as carpal bone fracture localization. We hope this dataset will significantly lower the barrier to research on wrist RA and accelerate progress in CAD research within the RA-related domain.
