Abstract

The invention designs a lung parenchyma CT image segmentation method based on a deep convolutional neural network. The method comprises the steps that 1, using The VGG-16 network improved by cavity convolution to extract the convolution characteristics of lung parenchyma in lung CT images;; 2, constructing a multi-scale feature supercolumn descriptor based on multi-layer extraction; And 3, learning a nonlinear predictor for classifying pixels. Results show that the method can realize accurate lung parenchyma image segmentation, compared with the prior art, the method has the advantages that the segmentation accuracy and speed are improved, and the problems of low manual segmentation efficiency, low accuracy, excessive consumption of manpower resources and the like of the lung parenchyma image are successfully solved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a lung parenchyma CT image segmentation method based on a convolutional neural network, which is superior to the prior art in terms of segmentation efficiency, robustness and accuracy, has good segmentation performance, and belongs to the field of medical image processing and deep learning . Background technique [0002] According to statistics, the incidence of lung cancer in China is increasing at a rate of 26.9% every year. By 2025, the number of people dying of lung cancer in China alone will be close to 1 million per year. Studies have shown that early detection and early treatment of lung cancer can effectively improve the survival rate of lung cancer patients: the 5-year survival rate increased from 14% to 49%. CT imaging is one of the effective ways to help doctors diagnose lung diseases. In order to reduce the workload of doctors and detect lung diseases faster and more accurately, it is of great significance to appl...
