Abstract

The invention is applicable to the field of image processing and provides an estimation method and system for a lung motion model. The method includes: extracting a control point in a lung three-dimensional CT image of a reference phase; using a tracking position at a previous moment of the control point as a prediction position and tracking the position of the control point in a continuous-discrete-phase three-dimensional CT image; performing least-square curve fitting on the continuous-discrete-phase pursuit path of the control point and determining the motion position of the control point at any continuous time; and constructing a three-dimensional deformation model of the lung at a current time according to the motion position of the control point at any continuous time and obtaining lung motion position estimation of any voxel of the lung of the reference phase at any time. The estimation method and system for the lung motion model adopts an image registration algorithm based on a mark point so that the method is small in calculation quantity, high in calculation speed and capable of estimating the motion model of the lung effectively.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of image processing, in particular to a lung motion model estimation method and system. Background technique [0002] At present, the application fields of 3D medical imaging technology are very extensive. X-ray computed tomography (Computedtomography, CT) imaging technology uses special X-ray equipment to obtain human tissue structure images. Using 3D CT imaging technology, 3D medical images can be reconstructed according to the patient's physiological conditions and pathological characteristics. Since the organs of the human body move cyclically with the breathing cycle, 3D imaging technology cannot handle the continuous time series organ motion model. [0003] The recently emerging four-dimensional medical imaging technology adds a time axis on the basis of three-dimensional data, which solves the limitations of three-dimensional imaging technology on the time axis. Four-dimensional CT imaging is a sequential thr...
