- 用可微分的超声切片渲染器,将2D图像转为3D高斯点云
- 联合优化切片位置与解剖结构,适应手柄不规则运动
- 适合临床医生做无创3D诊断,尤其缺专业设备场景
三维超声有望显著提升诊断准确率和临床决策能力,但其广泛应用受限于专用硬件和严格采集协议。本文提出一种新型无监督框架,仅需自由手扫的2D经阴道超声切片,即可重建3D解剖结构,无需外部追踪设备或学习的姿态估计器。所提方法TVGS借鉴高斯泼溅原理,设计适用于超声成像物理与几何特性的切片感知可微分渲染器,将解剖结构建模为各向异性3D高斯分布,并直接从图像级监督优化参数。为应对探头不规则运动,引入联合优化机制,同步精修切片姿态与解剖结构。结果生成紧凑、灵活且内存高效的体积表示,以高空间保真度捕捉解剖细节。本工作证明,仅通过纯计算手段即可实现从2D超声图像到准确3D重建,提供了一种可扩展的替代传统3D系统的新方案,为人工智能辅助分析与诊断开辟新路径。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Volumetric ultrasound has the potential to significantly improve diagnostic accuracy and clinical decision-making, yet its widespread adoption remains limited by dependence on specialized hardware and restrictive acquisition protocols. In this work, we present a novel unsupervised framework for reconstructing 3D anatomical structures from freehand 2D transvaginal ultrasound sweeps, without requiring external tracking or learned pose estimators. Our method, TVGS, adapts the principles of Gaussian Splatting to the domain of ultrasound, introducing a slice-aware, differentiable rasterizer tailored to the unique physics and geometry of ultrasound imaging. We model anatomy as a collection of anisotropic 3D Gaussians and optimize their parameters directly from image-level supervision. To ensure robustness against irregular probe motion, we introduce a joint optimization scheme that refines slice poses alongside anatomical structure. The result is a compact, flexible, and memory-efficient volumetric representation that captures anatomical detail with high spatial fidelity. This work demonstrates that accurate 3D reconstruction from 2D ultrasound images can be achieved through purely computational means, offering a scalable alternative to conventional 3D systems and enabling new opportunities for AI-assisted analysis and diagnosis.
