用半监督方法提升主动脉夹层3D分割精度,减少标注依赖。

Semi-Supervised 3D Segmentation for Type-B Aortic Dissection with Slim UNETR

  • 基于旋转翻转增强的无概率假设半监督框架
  • 在100例CTA数据上实现三类结构精准分割
  • 适合标注稀缺的医学图像多输出模型应用

当前用于医学图像多类别分割的卷积神经网络广泛采用多输出结构,可独立预测不同解剖区域(如真腔、假腔、血栓),无需依赖概率建模,从而提升分割精度。该架构共享编码器,但在输出层分支处理各分类,适用于类型B主动脉夹层(TBAD)诊断。研究基于ImageTBDA数据集,包含100例3D计算机断层血管造影(CTA)图像,需识别真腔(TL)、假腔(FL)和假腔血栓(FLT)三类结构。其中68例存在假腔,32例无,增加了病理检测难度。然而,此类模型训练依赖大量高质量标注数据,而3D医学图像标注成本高、耗时长。半监督学习通过融合有标签与无标签数据,有望缓解标注瓶颈。现有方法对多输出模型理解不足。本文提出一种适用于多输出模型的半监督学习方法,基于额外旋转与翻转增强,不依赖模型响应的概率性假设,具有通用性,特别适合需独立分割的架构。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Convolutional neural networks (CNN) for multi-class segmentation of medical images are widely used today. Especially models with multiple outputs that can separately predict segmentation classes (regions) without relying on a probabilistic formulation of the segmentation of regions. These models allow for more precise segmentation by tailoring the network's components to each class (region). They have a common encoder part of the architecture but branch out at the output layers, leading to improved accuracy. These methods are used to diagnose type B aortic dissection (TBAD), which requires accurate segmentation of aortic structures based on the ImageTBDA dataset, which contains 100 3D computed tomography angiography (CTA) images. These images identify three key classes: true lumen (TL), false lumen (FL), and false lumen thrombus (FLT) of the aorta, which is critical for diagnosis and treatment decisions. In the dataset, 68 examples have a false lumen, while the remaining 32 do not, creating additional complexity for pathology detection. However, implementing these CNN methods requires a large amount of high-quality labeled data. Obtaining accurate labels for the regions of interest can be an expensive and time-consuming process, particularly for 3D data. Semi-supervised learning methods allow models to be trained by using both labeled and unlabeled data, which is a promising approach for overcoming the challenge of obtaining accurate labels. However, these learning methods are not well understood for models with multiple outputs. This paper presents a semi-supervised learning method for models with multiple outputs. The method is based on the additional rotations and flipping, and does not assume the probabilistic nature of the model's responses. This makes it a universal approach, which is especially important for architectures that involve separate segmentation.
