在CT和MRI中进行全心分割受成像差异和异质性心脏标注影响。现有系统依赖网络结构设计、迁移学习及通用空间或强度增强。本文研究在固定分割架构下,通过数据增强与训练监督策略改进跨模态全心分割。提出LISynSeg,一种数据为中心的方法:将真实图像的nnU-Net训练与标签到图像合成相结合。合成体利用训练队列校准的对比度与采集扰动生成,再与真实图像混合以保留标签中缺失的胸腔上下文。通过控制心肌壁厚度变化及不确定血管端点的部分监督建模标注变异。在CARE Whole-Heart基准上,纯合成训练表现劣于真实图像基线;而校准后的真实-合成联合训练在不改变架构的情况下提升了跨模态分割性能,且对MRI提升更大。结果表明,调整训练数据策略可有效促进异质心脏数据建模。代码与权重将在https://github.com/MedICL-VU/Care26_LISynSeg发布。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Whole-heart segmentation (WHS) in computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is affected by acquisition shifts and heterogeneous cardiac annotations. Existing WHS systems combine architectural design, transfer learning, and generic spatial or intensity augmentation. We investigate whether changes to data augmentation and training supervision can improve cross-modality WHS while the segmentation architecture is held constant. We present LISynSeg, a data-centric approach that augments real-image nnU-Net training with label-to-image synthesis. Synthetic volumes are generated from cardiac label maps using contrast and acquisition perturbations calibrated to the training cohort, then mixed with real images to retain thoracic context absent from the labels (and thus the synthesized images). We model cardiac label variation through controlled changes in myocardial wall thickness and partial supervision of uncertain vessel endpoints. On the CARE Whole-Heart benchmark, synthetic-only training performs worse than the real-image nnU-Net baseline, whereas calibrated real-synthetic training improves cross-modality segmentation without changing the architecture; the improvement is larger for MRI than for CT. The results show that modifying the training data strategy can benefit model development for heterogeneous cardiac data. Code and trained weights will be released at https://github.com/MedICL-VU/Care26_LISynSeg.
