  • 引入领域泛化思想,用风格对齐网络恢复不同剂量图像的特征风格。
  • 在低对比度区域禁用对抗学习,避免过度平滑,提升细节保留能力。
  • 无需针对每种剂量训练模型,适合临床中剂量变化多样的实际场景。

现有基于深度学习的PET图像去噪方法通常假设已知且固定的剂量降低因子(DRF),但在实际应用中若DRF变化则性能显著下降。为应对这一挑战,部分研究尝试构建跨多种DRF的通用去噪模型,但这些基础模型常因不同DRF数据间存在风格错位,导致严重的过平滑现象,即‘风格消除问题’。为此,本文创新性地将领域泛化引入PET图像去噪,提出统一型PET去噪网络UniPET,实现对多样化DRFs的高质量去噪。UniPET包含两大核心:风格对齐网络(SAN)和区域感知学习策略(RALS)。SAN利用领域泛化中的风格对齐技术,使不同DRF数据的风格得以对齐与恢复,保障模型在多变剂量下的泛化能力;RALS区分平坦区域与具有风格特征的区域,仅对后者施加对抗学习,从而更有效地引导模型关注于风格化特征的学习。实验表明,UniPET能自适应恢复不同DRF的图像风格,在特定DRF下表现接近专用模型,并在定量、感知与临床评价上均达到当前最优的通用去噪效果。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Most existing deep learning-based PET image denoising methods assume a fixed and known dose reduction factor (DRF) for low-dose PET images. However, these methods encounter significant performance degradation when the DRF varies beyond the assumed one in practical applications. To address the challenge posed by varied DRFs, several preliminary studies focus on the task of universal PET image denoising, aiming to train a universal model over low-dose data across DRFs. Nonetheless, these vanilla universal models often struggle with misaligned styles present in different DRF data, leading to the \textit{style elimination issue} with a significant over-smoothing effect. To deal with this issue, we innovatively introduce domain generalization to PET image denoising and propose a universal PET image denoising network (UniPET) to achieve high-quality PET image denoising across diverse DRFs. UniPET comprises two primary innovations: a style alignment network (SAN) and a region-aware learning strategy (RALS). Specifically, SAN utilizes style alignment techniques derived from domain generalization to align and recover styles across different DRFs, ensuring the model's generalizability across various DRFs while effectively preserving styles. Furthermore, to enhance style recovery, RALS distinguishes between flat and stylized regions, exclusively conducting adversarial learning on the latter, thereby more effectively guiding the model's focus towards learning stylized regions. It is demonstrated that our proposed UniPET can adaptively recover different DRF styles and achieve high-quality PET image denoising across DRFs. Comprehensive experiments show that UniPET exhibits comparable performance to individual DRF-specific models at specific DRFs and realizes state-of-the-art performance in universal PET image denoising quantitatively, perceptually, and clinically.
