RetSAM可统一分割与量化视网膜图像,助力眼病研究。

A General Model for Retinal Segmentation and Quantification

  • 基于20万张眼底图训练,支持多结构多病灶分割
  • 平均DSC提升3.9个百分点,复杂任务最高提升15个点
  • 输出30+标准化生物标志物,适合大规模眼病分析

眼底成像快速、无创且普及率高,能提供可量化的结构与血管信号,用于眼科及全身健康评估。然而,因公开的多标签数据集稀缺,缺乏统一的分割-量化流程,规模化分析仍具挑战。我们提出RetSAM,一种通用的眼底图像分割与量化框架,实现稳健的多目标分割与标准化生物标志物提取,支持下游眼科研究与眼组学关联分析。该模型在超过20万张眼底图像上训练,支持三类任务,可分割五类解剖结构、四类视网膜表型模式及20余种病变类型,并将结果转化为30多个标准化生物标志物,涵盖结构形态、血管几何与退行性改变。采用多阶段策略融合私有与公开数据训练,其在17个公开数据集上表现优异,平均DSC较之前最佳方法提升3.9个百分点,复杂多任务基准最高提升15个百分点,且在不同人群、设备与临床场景中具有良好泛化能力。由此产生的生物标志物可用于糖尿病视网膜病变、年龄相关性黄斑变性、青光眼及病理性近视等主要眼病的系统性关联分析。RetSAM将眼底图像转化为标准化、可解释的定量表型,推动大规模眼科研究与转化应用。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Retinal imaging is fast, non-invasive, and widely available, offering quantifiable structural and vascular signals for ophthalmic and systemic health assessment. This accessibility creates an opportunity to study how quantitative retinal phenotypes relate to ocular and systemic diseases. However, such analyses remain difficult at scale due to the limited availability of public multi-label datasets and the lack of a unified segmentation-to-quantification pipeline. We present RetSAM, a general retinal segmentation and quantification framework for fundus imaging. It delivers robust multi-target segmentation and standardized biomarker extraction, supporting downstream ophthalmologic studies and oculomics correlation analyses. Trained on over 200,000 fundus images, RetSAM supports three task categories and segments five anatomical structures, four retinal phenotypic patterns, and more than 20 distinct lesion types. It converts these segmentation results into over 30 standardized biomarkers that capture structural morphology, vascular geometry, and degenerative changes. Trained with a multi-stage strategy using both private and public fundus data, RetSAM achieves superior segmentation performance on 17 public datasets. It improves on prior best methods by 3.9 percentage points in DSC on average, with up to 15 percentage points on challenging multi-task benchmarks, and generalizes well across diverse populations, imaging devices, and clinical settings. The resulting biomarkers enable systematic correlation analyses across major ophthalmic diseases, including diabetic retinopathy, age-related macular degeneration, glaucoma, and pathologic myopia. Together, RetSAM transforms fundus images into standardized, interpretable quantitative phenotypes, enabling large-scale ophthalmic research and translation.
