前列腺扩散加权成像(DWI)中的几何失真会影响病灶定位,降低MRI临床评估的可靠性。本文提出AutoIQ,一种基于集成机器学习的自动量化与分类框架,用于评估DWI几何失真严重程度。共分析140例回顾性前列腺双参数MRI检查,其中33例存在严重失真需重扫,107例为可接受水平(由专家评定)。AutoIQ结合两种互补策略:基于分割的方法测量T2WI与DWI间前列腺边界不匹配度,基于配准的方法估计DWI到T2WI配准后的形变幅度。由此生成的失真评分用于训练单个分类器及逻辑回归集成模型。两种计算方法均显著区分严重与可接受失真(p < 0.001)。在独立测试集上,集成模型达到准确率0.95、F1-score 0.93、AUC 0.98,优于单一模型。结果表明,AutoIQ可实现前列腺DWI的自动化、定量质量评估,有助于识别需重扫的影像。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Geometric distortion in prostate diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) can impair lesion localization and reduce the reliability of MRI-based clinical assessment. We propose AutoIQ, an ensemble machine learning framework for automatic quantification and classification of DWI geometric distortion severity. A total of 140 retrospective prostate biparametric MRI examinations were analyzed, including 33 scans with severe distortion requiring repeat acquisition and 107 scans with acceptable distortion based on expert radiologist assessment. AutoIQ combines two complementary distortion quantification strategies: a segmentation-based method measuring prostate boundary mismatch between T2-weighted imaging (T2WI) and DWI, and a registration-based method estimating deformation magnitude after DWI-to-T2WI alignment. The resulting distortion scores were used to train individual classifiers and a logistic-regression ensemble model. Both computational methods significantly differentiated severe from acceptable distortion cases (p < 0.001). On an independent test set, the ensemble model achieved an accuracy of 0.95, F1-score of 0.93, and AUC of 0.98, outperforming individual models. These results suggest that AutoIQ can provide automated, quantitative quality assessment for prostate DWI and may help identify scans that require repeat acquisition.
