Rethinking the Detail-Preserved Completion of Complex Tubular Structures based on Point Cloud: a Dataset and a Benchmark
- 提出TSRNet网络,融合细节保持特征提取与多级精修机制。
- 在三个数据集上优于现有方法,显著减少血管断裂并恢复结构完整性。
- 构建首个点云冠状动脉修复数据集,适合医学图像重建研究者使用。
复杂管状结构在医学影像与计算机辅助诊断中至关重要,其完整性有助于解剖可视化与病灶检测。然而,现有分割算法在严重临床病例(如冠状动脉狭窄、血管闭塞)中难以处理结构断裂,导致不连续性,影响下游诊断准确性。因此,亟需重建断裂结构以确保完整性。本研究首次探索基于点云的管状结构补全,构建了源自真实临床数据的点云冠状动脉补全(PC-CAC)数据集,为该任务提供新基准。同时提出TSRNet,一种集成细节保持特征提取器、多密度精修策略和全局到局部损失函数的管状结构重连网络,以保证精准连接并维持结构完整性。在自建的PC-CAC及两个公开数据集(PC-ImageCAS和PC-PTR)上的全面实验表明,本方法在多个评估指标上持续优于现有先进方法,确立了点云基管状结构重建的新基准。基准数据集已开源:https://github.com/YaoleiQi/PCCAC。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Complex tubular structures are essential in medical imaging and computer-assisted diagnosis, where their integrity enhances anatomical visualization and lesion detection. However, existing segmentation algorithms struggle with structural discontinuities, particularly in severe clinical cases such as coronary artery stenosis and vessel occlusions, which leads to undesired discontinuity and compromising downstream diagnostic accuracy. Therefore, it is imperative to reconnect discontinuous structures to ensure their completeness. In this study, we explore the tubular structure completion based on point cloud for the first time and establish a Point Cloud-based Coronary Artery Completion (PC-CAC) dataset, which is derived from real clinical data. This dataset provides a novel benchmark for tubular structure completion. Additionally, we propose TSRNet, a Tubular Structure Reconnection Network that integrates a detail-preservated feature extractor, a multiple dense refinement strategy, and a global-to-local loss function to ensure accurate reconnection while maintaining structural integrity. Comprehensive experiments on our PC-CAC and two additional public datasets (PC-ImageCAS and PC-PTR) demonstrate that our method consistently outperforms state-of-the-art approaches across multiple evaluation metrics, setting a new benchmark for point cloud-based tubular structure reconstruction. Our benchmark is available at https://github.com/YaoleiQi/PCCAC.
