构建首个覆盖167个结构的全身体积CT分割数据集,推动临床级AI辅助诊断。

CADS: A Comprehensive Anatomical Dataset and Segmentation for Whole-Body Anatomy in Computed Tomography

  • 整合2.2万例异源CT数据,统一标注167个解剖结构
  • 模型在18个公开数据集和真实医院数据中均超越当前最佳方法
  • 开源数据集与工具,助力放射科医生和研究者使用

精确划分体层CT扫描中的解剖结构对诊断与治疗规划至关重要。尽管人工智能已推动自动分割发展,但现有方法多聚焦单一结构,导致模型碎片化、性能不一且评估标准各异。基础分割模型通过单一模型实现整体解剖视图以克服此问题,但其临床部署仍需全面训练数据支持,而现有全身体积方法在数据多样性与解剖覆盖范围上均显不足。本文提出CADS,一个以系统整合、标准化与标注异源数据为核心的数据框架。其核心为包含22,022例CT体积数据的大型数据集,涵盖167个解剖结构,规模是现有集合的18倍,解剖目标增加60%。基于此多样化数据集,我们采用成熟架构开发了CADS-model,实现可访问、全自动的全身体积CT分割。通过在18个公共数据集及独立真实医院队列上的综合评估,证明该模型优于当前最优方法。特别地,在放疗领域任务中的全面测试验证了其对临床干预的直接应用价值。我们公开发布大规模数据集、分割模型与临床软件工具,旨在推进放射学中稳健的AI解决方案,并使全面解剖分析惠及临床医生与研究人员。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Accurate delineation of anatomical structures in volumetric CT scans is crucial for diagnosis and treatment planning. While AI has advanced automated segmentation, current approaches typically target individual structures, creating a fragmented landscape of incompatible models with varying performance and disparate evaluation protocols. Foundational segmentation models address these limitations by providing a holistic anatomical view through a single model. Yet, robust clinical deployment demands comprehensive training data, which is lacking in existing whole-body approaches, both in terms of data heterogeneity and, more importantly, anatomical coverage. In this work, rather than pursuing incremental optimizations in model architecture, we present CADS, an open-source framework that prioritizes the systematic integration, standardization, and labeling of heterogeneous data sources for whole-body CT segmentation. At its core is a large-scale dataset of 22,022 CT volumes with complete annotations for 167 anatomical structures, representing a significant advancement in both scale and coverage, with 18 times more scans than existing collections and 60% more distinct anatomical targets. Building on this diverse dataset, we develop the CADS-model using established architectures for accessible and automated full-body CT segmentation. Through comprehensive evaluation across 18 public datasets and an independent real-world hospital cohort, we demonstrate advantages over SoTA approaches. Notably, thorough testing of the model's performance in segmentation tasks from radiation oncology validates its direct utility for clinical interventions. By making our large-scale dataset, our segmentation models, and our clinical software tool publicly available, we aim to advance robust AI solutions in radiology and make comprehensive anatomical analysis accessible to clinicians and researchers alike.
