T-MPEDNet通过多尺度注意力网络实现肝与肿瘤精准分割,提升边界清晰度。

T-MPEDNet: Unveiling the Synergy of Transformer-aware Multiscale Progressive Encoder-Decoder Network with Feature Recalibration for Tumor and Liver Segmentation

  • 融合Transformer注意力与渐进式编码解码结构,增强特征表达能力。
  • 在LiTS和3DIRCADb数据集上,肝与肿瘤分割DSC分别达97.6%与89.1%。
  • 适合医学图像分割任务,尤其对边界模糊的病灶分割有显著优势。

CT扫描中肝及肿瘤的精确自动分割对肝病与恶性肿瘤的快速诊断和治疗方案优化至关重要。然而,肿瘤内在异质性及肝脏视觉特征的广泛差异给自动化分割带来挑战。为此,本文提出一种新型Transformer-aware多尺度渐进式编码解码网络(T-MPEDNet),通过深度自适应特征骨干结合渐进式结构,并利用跳跃连接进行通道级特征重校准,保持空间完整性。引入类Transformer动态注意力机制捕捉长程上下文关系,辅以多尺度特征提取,细化局部细节,实现精准预测。随后采用形态学边界精修处理邻近器官间模糊边界,捕获更细微结构。在公开基准数据集LiTS与3DIRCADb上的全面评估显示,相比十二种先进方法,T-MPEDNet表现更优:在LiTS上肝与肿瘤分割的Dice相似系数(DSC)分别为97.6%与89.1%;在3DIRCADb上分别为98.3%与83.3%。结果表明,T-MPEDNet是肝及其肿瘤在CT影像中自动化分割的有效可靠框架。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Precise and automated segmentation of the liver and its tumor within CT scans plays a pivotal role in swift diagnosis and the development of optimal treatment plans for individuals with liver diseases and malignancies. However, automated liver and tumor segmentation faces significant hurdles arising from the inherent heterogeneity of tumors and the diverse visual characteristics of livers across a broad spectrum of patients. Aiming to address these challenges, we present a novel Transformer-aware Multiscale Progressive Encoder-Decoder Network (T-MPEDNet) for automated segmentation of tumor and liver. T-MPEDNet leverages a deep adaptive features backbone through a progressive encoder-decoder structure, enhanced by skip connections for recalibrating channel-wise features while preserving spatial integrity. A Transformer-inspired dynamic attention mechanism captures long-range contextual relationships within the spatial domain, further enhanced by multi-scale feature utilization for refined local details, leading to accurate prediction. Morphological boundary refinement is then employed to address indistinct boundaries with neighboring organs, capturing finer details and yielding precise boundary labels. The efficacy of T-MPEDNet is comprehensively assessed on two widely utilized public benchmark datasets, LiTS and 3DIRCADb. Extensive quantitative and qualitative analyses demonstrate the superiority of T-MPEDNet compared to twelve state-of-the-art methods. On LiTS, T-MPEDNet achieves outstanding Dice Similarity Coefficients (DSC) of 97.6% and 89.1% for liver and tumor segmentation, respectively. Similar performance is observed on 3DIRCADb, with DSCs of 98.3% and 83.3% for liver and tumor segmentation, respectively. Our findings prove that T-MPEDNet is an efficacious and reliable framework for automated segmentation of the liver and its tumor in CT scans.
