用统计形貌模型自动生成肝脏关键点标注数据,省去大量人工标注。

Leveraging a Statistical Shape Model for Efficient Generation of Annotated Training Data: A Case Study on Liver Landmarks Segmentation

  • 基于仅需一次手动标注的平均形状,生成8800个带标注的肝脏3D形态。
  • 在500个未见合成形状上实现91.4%的平均交并比,关键点检测准确率超87%。
  • 适用于医疗图像分割等需大量标注数据的场景,尤其适合器官形貌研究。

解剖学标志分割是计算机辅助干预中稳健多模态配准的关键初始步骤。当前方法主要依赖深度学习,但通常需要大量手动标注数据集。本文提出一种新策略:基于统计形貌模型(SSM),仅需一次手动标注平均形状,即可生成大规模带标注数据集。我们通过该方法训练专用深度神经网络,用于3D肝脏中前嵴和镰状韧带的解剖标志分割。模型使用由SSM生成的8,800个标注肝脏形状进行训练,并在500个未见的合成SSM形状上评估,获得平均交并比91.4%(前嵴87.4%,镰状韧带87.6%)。随后将模型应用于临床患者肝脏形态,定性评估显示结果良好,验证了方法的泛化能力。研究结果表明,基于SSM的数据生成方法可显著减轻人工标注负担,为机器学习创建大规模标注数据集。尽管本研究聚焦肝脏解剖结构,该方法对其他需高质量标注数据的深度学习应用亦具广泛潜力。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Anatomical landmark segmentation serves as a critical initial step for robust multimodal registration during computer-assisted interventions. Current approaches predominantly rely on deep learning, which often necessitates the extensive manual generation of annotated datasets. In this paper, we present a novel strategy for creating large annotated datasets using a statistical shape model (SSM) based on a mean shape that is manually labeled only once. We demonstrate the method's efficacy through its application to deep-learning-based anatomical landmark segmentation, specifically targeting the detection of the anterior ridge and the falciform ligament in 3D liver shapes. A specialized deep learning network was trained with 8,800 annotated liver shapes generated by the SSM. The network's performance was evaluated on 500 unseen synthetic SSM shapes, yielding a mean Intersection over Union of 91.4% (87.4% for the anterior ridge and 87.6% for the falciform ligament). Subsequently, the network was applied to clinical patient liver shapes, with qualitative evaluation indicating promising results and highlighting the generalizability of the proposed approach. Our findings suggest that the SSM-based data generation approach alleviates the labor-intensive process of manual labeling while enabling the creation of large annotated training datasets for machine learning. Although our study focuses on liver anatomy, the proposed methodology holds potential for a broad range of applications where annotated training datasets play a pivotal role in developing accurate deep-learning models.
