Abstract

The embodiment of the invention discloses a brain perfusion image segmentation method and device, a server and a storage medium. The method comprises the following steps: performing brain image segmentation on a pre-processed time sequence image to obtain a brain mask; determining a feature image according to the brain mask and the pre-processing time sequence image; Using the maximum gray scale projection image and the gray scale average image in the feature image to obtain a blood vessel mask; performing image standardization on the gray average image to obtain a standardized image; and segmenting the pre-treatment time sequence image superposed with the brain mask and the blood vessel mask according to the standardized image, the gray average image of the brain, the maximum gray projection image and the baseline mean value image before flowing into the contrast agent to obtain one or more of cerebrospinal fluid, gray matter and white matter. According to the embodiment of the invention, the problem of poor edge segmentation effect of different brain tissues segmented by the brain perfusion image in the prior art is solved, and the accurate segmentation of different brain tissuesin the brain perfusion image and the automation of image processing are realized.

Description

technical field [0001] Embodiments of the present invention relate to a medical image analysis technology, in particular to a brain perfusion image segmentation method, device, server and storage medium. Background technique [0002] Cerebral perfusion imaging is a technology that injects radiopharmaceuticals that can pass through the normal blood-brain barrier into the human body, obtains brain perfusion images through imaging equipment, and uses brain perfusion images to diagnose brain diseases. Specifically, in the diagnosis process, it is necessary to segment the brain perfusion image to obtain the distribution of different tissues and determine the lesion location of the patient's brain tissue. [0003] In the prior art, the method of segmenting the brain perfusion image is: segment the skull based on the scheme of the brain perfusion image atlas, then use the threshold method to segment the cerebrospinal fluid and blood vessels, and finally construct the feature vector...
