Abstract

The invention relates to a liver tumor segmentation method and system based on a convolutional neural network. The method comprises the following steps: constructing a U-shaped structure encoder / decoder network; wherein the encoder / decoder network with the U-shaped structure comprises a contraction path and an expansion path; residual blocks are added into convolution layers of down-sampling and up-sampling of the U-shaped structure encoder / decoder network to form a jump connection structure; adding a weight attention mechanism module into down-sampling of the U-shaped structure encoder / decoder network, and combining the weight attention mechanism module with the jump connection structure to form a convolutional neural network model; training the convolutional neural network model by adopting a data training set to obtain a trained convolutional neural network model; and inputting a to-be-segmented liver image into the trained convolutional neural network model to obtain a liver segmentation result image and a tumor segmentation result image. According to the invention, the tumor segmentation accuracy can be improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of medical image processing, in particular to a convolutional neural network-based liver tumor segmentation method and system. Background technique [0002] Liver cancer is a malignant tumor with a high mortality rate. Early detection and treatment will significantly improve the survival rate of liver cancer patients. Related literature shows that the five-year relative survival rate of advanced liver cancer is only 18%, while the five-year relative survival rate of early-diagnosed liver cancer increases to 70%. Often, early liver cancer shows up as a tumor on a CT (computed tomography) scan that is on or inside the liver. Accurate liver tumor segmentation is an essential prerequisite step for computer-aided diagnosis of liver diseases, however, due to the large number of image slices present in CT scans, diagnostic readout of CT scans in a short period of time is critical for radiologists. Language is a hug...
