Extendable Generalization Self-Supervised Diffusion for Low-Dose CT Reconstruction
- 通过上下文子数据增强相似性提供初始先验。
- 训练中融合知识蒸馏与潜空间扩散模型优化细节。
- 推理时像素级自校正融合提升数据保真度,支持未见剂量。
当前基于深度学习的自监督低剂量CT(LDCT)重建方法虽减少了对配对数据的依赖,但在仅用单剂量数据训练时泛化能力显著下降。为此,本文提出一种可扩展泛化自监督扩散方法(EGenDiff),仅需单剂量投影数据即可实现多剂量泛化。具体地,设计上下文子数据自增强相似性策略提供初始先验;训练阶段利用该先验结合知识蒸馏与深层潜空间扩散模型优化图像细节;推理阶段引入像素级自校正融合技术增强数据保真度,实现对更高、更低甚至未见剂量的良好泛化。在基准数据集、临床数据及光子计数CT数据上,跨三个解剖平面(横断面、冠状面、矢状面)的综合评估表明,EGenDiff能持续优于现有主流方法,实现可扩展的多剂量重建。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Current methods based on deep learning for self-supervised low-dose CT (LDCT) reconstruction, while reducing the dependence on paired data, face the problem of significantly decreased generalization when training with single-dose data and extending to other doses. To enable dose-extensive generalization using only single-dose projection data for training, this work proposes a novel method of Extendable GENeraLization self-supervised Diffusion (EGenDiff) for low-dose CT reconstruction. Specifically, a contextual subdata self-enhancing similarity strategy is designed to provide an initial prior for the subsequent progress. During training, the initial prior is used to combine knowledge distillation with a deep combination of latent diffusion models for optimizing image details. On the stage of inference, the pixel-wise self-correcting fusion technique is proposed for data fidelity enhancement, resulting in extensive generalization of higher and lower doses or even unseen doses. EGenDiff requires only LDCT projection data for training and testing. Comprehensive evaluation on benchmark datasets, clinical data, photon counting CT data, and across all three anatomical planes (transverse, coronal, and sagittal) demonstrates that EGenDiff enables extendable generalization multi-dose, yielding reconstructions that consistently outperform leading existing methods.
