用少量标注数据实现胸部X光片异常检测,无需重新训练新病灶。
Example-based Robust Abnormality Detection with Minimal Annotations using Exemplar Med-DETR

- 基于样本生成特征并结合领域感知对比优化,提升少样本检测能力。
- 仅用10%以下标注数据即达接近顶尖水平的检测性能。
- 适合医疗场景中快速部署新病种检测,减少人工标注负担。
降低标注需求仍是构建鲁棒医学目标检测器的关键挑战。尽管视觉-语言(VL)检测方法在自然图像中利用文本信息实现了强大的零样本与少样本检测,但其在医学领域的迁移受限于缺乏高质量、大规模的语义标注数据。然而,医学影像中仍存在大量未被充分利用的上下文与非影像信息。少样本学习(FSL)虽部分缓解此问题,却难以泛化至未见医学发现,且引入新病种时需大量重训练。为此,我们扩展了先前的EM-DETR框架,提出一种可扩展的少样本检测方法,适用于在极低监督下进行胸部X光(CXR)图像中的异常检测。该架构结合样本式特征生成与领域感知对比优化,可在无需充分重训的前提下有效适应新疾病发现。实验表明,本方法仅使用不到10%的标注数据即可达到接近当前最优(SOTA)的检测性能,在专有与公开的CXR数据集上均展现实际临床部署潜力。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Reducing annotation requirements remains a key challenge in developing robust medical object detectors. To address this, Vision-Language (VL) object detection methods leverage grounding text information to enable powerful zero-shot and few-shot object detectors in the natural image domain [1, 2, 3, 4]. However, transferring these methods to the medical domain is challenging due to the absence of comparable quality and quantity of the grounding data. Regardless, significant contextual and non-imaging information exists in medical images that remains underutilized. Few-shot learning (FSL) techniques partially address this limitation but struggle to general ize to unseen medical findings and require extensive retraining when new findings are introduced [5, 6]. To overcome these challenges, we extend our prior EM-DETR framework [7] and introduce a scalable FS detection approach designed for efficient abnormality detection in Chest X-Ray (CXR) images under minimal supervision. The proposed architecture incorporates exemplar-based feature generation and domain-aware contrastive optimization, enabling effective adaptation to novel disease findings without exhaustive retraining. Our method achieves near state-of-the-art (SOTA) detection performance using less than 10% of the annotated data, demonstrating its potential for practical, annotation-efficient clinical deployment across both proprietary and public CXR datasets.
