- 融合频域感知与双向空间状态建模,提升血管特征表达能力。
- 在4个公开数据集上性能优于现有方法,细血管分割准确率显著提升。

精准的视网膜血管分割是量化分析视网膜图像及辅助诊断糖尿病视网膜病变等血管疾病的关键。然而,血管呈细长形态、尺度差异大且对比度低,导致现有方法难以同时保持细小毛细血管和全局拓扑连续性。为此,我们提出视网膜血管感知频域与全局空间建模网络(VFGS-Net),一个端到端分割框架,统一整合频域感知特征增强、双路卷积表示学习与双向非对称空间状态建模。具体而言,双路特征卷积模块联合捕捉细粒度局部纹理与多尺度上下文语义;引入新型血管感知频域通道注意力机制,自适应重加权频谱成分,增强高层特征中血管相关响应;在网络瓶颈处,设计基于Mamba2的双向非对称空间建模块,高效捕获长程空间依赖,强化血管结构的全局连续性。在四个公开视网膜血管数据集上的大量实验表明,VFGS-Net性能优于或媲美当前最优方法。尤其在细血管、复杂分支结构和低对比区域,分割精度持续提升,凸显其鲁棒性与临床潜力。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Accurate retinal vessel segmentation is a critical prerequisite for quantitative analysis of retinal images and computer-aided diagnosis of vascular diseases such as diabetic retinopathy. However, the elongated morphology, wide scale variation, and low contrast of retinal vessels pose significant challenges for existing methods, making it difficult to simultaneously preserve fine capillaries and maintain global topological continuity. To address these challenges, we propose the Vessel-aware Frequency-domain and Global Spatial modeling Network (VFGS-Net), an end-to-end segmentation framework that seamlessly integrates frequency-aware feature enhancement, dual-path convolutional representation learning, and bidirectional asymmetric spatial state-space modeling within a unified architecture. Specifically, VFGS-Net employs a dual-path feature convolution module to jointly capture fine-grained local textures and multi-scale contextual semantics. A novel vessel-aware frequency-domain channel attention mechanism is introduced to adaptively reweight spectral components, thereby enhancing vessel-relevant responses in high-level features. Furthermore, at the network bottleneck, we propose a bidirectional asymmetric Mamba2-based spatial modeling block to efficiently capture long-range spatial dependencies and strengthen the global continuity of vascular structures. Extensive experiments on four publicly available retinal vessel datasets demonstrate that VFGS-Net achieves competitive or superior performance compared to state-of-the-art methods. Notably, our model consistently improves segmentation accuracy for fine vessels, complex branching patterns, and low-contrast regions, highlighting its robustness and clinical potential.
