Rethinking Intracranial Aneurysm Vessel Segmentation: A Perspective from Computational Fluid Dynamics Applications
- 构建两阶段分割框架,兼顾定位与精细分割。
- 建立标准化血流动力学可应用性评估体系,实现自动建模。
- 数据集含641例3D MRA及587个标注,支持临床研究与模型验证。
精确分割颅内动脉瘤及其载瘤血管(IA-Vessel)是血流动力学分析的关键步骤,主要依赖于计算流体动力学(CFD)。然而,现有分割方法多关注图像层面评价指标,忽视其在后续CFD应用中的实际效果。为此,我们提出了首个全面的多中心颅内动脉瘤血管分割数据集(IAVS),包含641例3D MRA图像和587个动脉瘤及IA-Vessel标注。该数据集不仅提供图像-掩码对,还包含详细的血流动力学分析结果,弥补了现有数据集在拓扑完整性和CFD适用性方面的不足。为促进临床相关技术的发展与评估,我们建立了两个评价基准:动脉瘤全局定位(阶段Ⅰ)和IA-Vessel精细分割(阶段Ⅱ),并提出一个简单有效的两阶段框架,可作为开箱即用的方法与强基线。为全面评估分割结果的应用价值,我们构建了标准化的CFD适用性评估系统,实现分割掩码到CFD模型的自动化、一致化转换,提供以应用为导向的分割性能评估。数据集、代码与模型将公开于https://github.com/AbsoluteResonance/IAVS。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
The precise segmentation of intracranial aneurysms and their parent vessels (IA-Vessel) is a critical step for hemodynamic analyses, which mainly depends on computational fluid dynamics (CFD). However, current segmentation methods predominantly focus on image-based evaluation metrics, often neglecting their practical effectiveness in subsequent CFD applications. To address this deficiency, we present the Intracranial Aneurysm Vessel Segmentation (IAVS) dataset, the first comprehensive, multi-center collection comprising 641 3D MRA images with 587 annotations of aneurysms and IA-Vessels. In addition to image-mask pairs, IAVS dataset includes detailed hemodynamic analysis outcomes, addressing the limitations of existing datasets that neglect topological integrity and CFD applicability. To facilitate the development and evaluation of clinically relevant techniques, we construct two evaluation benchmarks including global localization of aneurysms (Stage I) and fine-grained segmentation of IA-Vessel (Stage II) and develop a simple and effective two-stage framework, which can be used as a out-of-the-box method and strong baseline. For comprehensive evaluation of applicability of segmentation results, we establish a standardized CFD applicability evaluation system that enables the automated and consistent conversion of segmentation masks into CFD models, offering an applicability-focused assessment of segmentation outcomes. The dataset, code, and model will be public available at https://github.com/AbsoluteResonance/IAVS.
