无标注数据下跨中心自动提取主动脉夹层关键临床特征

Type A Aortic Dissection (TAAD) is a life-threatening cardiovascular emergency that demands rapid and precise preoperative evaluation. While key anatomical and pathological features are decisive for surgical planning, current research focuses predominantly on improving segmentation accuracy, leaving the reliable, quantitative extraction of clinically actionable features largely under-explored. Furthermore, constructing comprehensive TAAD datasets requires labor-intensive, expert level pixel-wise annotations, which is impractical for most clinical institutions. Due to significant domain shift, models trained on a single center dataset also suffer from severe performance degradation during cross-institutional deployment. This study addresses a clinically critical challenge: the accurate extraction of key TAAD clinical features during cross-institutional deployment in the total absence of target-domain annotations. To this end, we propose an unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA)-driven framework for the automated extraction of TAAD clinical features. The framework leverages limited source-domain labels while effectively adapting to unlabeled data from target domains. Tailored for real-world emergency workflows, our framework aims to achieve stable cross-institutional multi-class segmentation, reliable and quantifiable clinical feature extraction, and practical deployability independent of high-cost annotations. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our method significantly improves cross-domain segmentation performance compared to existing state-of-the-art approaches. More importantly, a reader study involving multiple cardiovascular surgeons confirms that the automatically extracted clinical features provide meaningful assistance for preoperative assessment, highlighting the practical utility of the proposed end-to-end segmentation-to-feature pipeline.
