Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of digital slice scanning, in particular to a digital slice rescanning method, device, equipment and medium. BACKGROUND
[0002] After the digital slice scanning device turns the traditional slice scanning into a high-resolution digital picture, the user can view the slice on the computer or mobile device at any time and anywhere, while having the advantages of never fading, easy to save, manage, share, full field of view, and can be zoomed in and out at will. It has been widely used in the fields of pathological diagnosis, teaching training, drug research and scientific research.
[0003] With the popularization of application, the performance of the scanner is getting higher and higher, especially the scanning quality and speed. In order to obtain better image quality, it is required to focus accurately on each field of view, and usually thousands of images of fields of view are needed to be taken for digitalizing a slice, so the focusing mode will affect the scanning speed. Although the traditional focusing on each field of view can obtain better image quality, the speed becomes a bottleneck. Therefore, at present, the method of modeling the focal plane is more used, such as patent 201110283732.2, that is, the focal plane positions of several fields of view of the slice are selected as model points, and the focal plane positions of each field of view in the slice are estimated according to the model points through an algorithm. In this way, when scanning, it is not necessary to move the Z-axis to collect multiple images to calculate the defocus amount, but only needs to drive the Z-axis according to the modeled focal plane position, which significantly improves the speed.
[0004] However, at this time, the problem of image blur often occurs. The conventional method is to find the image quality problem after manual reading, and then to perform rescanning, which needs manual intervention, such as manually selecting model points, manually focusing, and then automatically modeling and scanning, which reduces the efficiency.
[0005] In addition, the patents “CN113256573A-Determination method and device of digital slice quality” and “CN114820510A-Cell pathology image quality evaluation method” evaluate the quality of digital slice images of different microscopic specimens, so that the user can judge whether it is necessary to rescan, which reduces part of the workload, but still needs manual intervention for rescanning. If it is a high-throughput scanner, since there are many slices to be scanned, if there are multiple slices with blur problems, it is also necessary to spend effort to find the corresponding slices, and the efficiency is further reduced.
[0006] Therefore, it is necessary to propose a digital slice rescanning method, which can automatically adjust the scanning strategy when the image quality does not meet the preset requirements, reduce manual identification and intervention, improve the scanning success rate, and as far as possible reduce the rescanning rate. SUMMARY

[0040] The embodiments of the application are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the drawings, wherein the same or similar reference signs represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below by referring to the drawings are exemplary and are intended to explain the application, and cannot be understood as a limitation of the application.
[0041] The application provides a digital slice rescan method, and the core scheme thereof is to give different rescan strategies according to different defect types of an image after it is found that the image quality is problematic, so that the success rate and efficiency of scanning are improved.
[0042] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown in the figures, the digital slice rescan method comprises the following steps:
[0043] S1, acquire a scanning image of a digital slice, judge the image quality, if it meets the preset requirements, execute S6 to archive the image. Otherwise, execute S2 to further judge the defect type.
[0044] Wherein, the image quality is evaluated based on machine learning or artificial intelligence method, to determine whether it meets the preset requirements.
[0045] S2, judge the defect type of the scanning image quality, if it is overall blur, execute S3; if it is local blur, execute S4.
[0046] Wherein, based on the field of view image obtained during scanning, it is distinguished whether it is partial field of view blur (referred to as local blur in this application) or overall digital slice blur (referred to as overall blur in this application). The blur judgment of a single field of view can use edge algorithm to obtain focus factor, if the value of focus factor is less than the second focus threshold, it is judged as blur. The number of blurred fields of view is judged to determine whether it is local blur or overall blur. A blur evaluation threshold is preset, if the number of blurred fields of view is less than the blur evaluation threshold, it is judged as local blur; otherwise, it is judged as overall blur.
[0047] S3, re-model the scanning according to the first preset strategy, judge the image quality of the scanning image after re-modeling, if it meets the preset requirements, execute S6; otherwise, judge the defect type of the scanning image quality, if it is still overall blur, execute S5, if it is local blur, execute S4.
[0048] Specifically, in one example, the first preset strategy includes judging whether the focal plane position of the model point is higher than the reference position by a first position threshold, if yes, setting the upper limit of the focusing range of the model point as the difference between the focal plane position of the original model point and the first position threshold; if no, setting the upper and lower limits of the focusing range of the model point as the reference position plus and minus a second position threshold. Wherein, the first position threshold is determined according to the cover glass thickness, with the average position of the focal plane of the last several scanning successful slices as the reference position. The second position threshold is determined according to the focusing range of the autofocus.
[0049] When the overall blur in the digital slice is detected, it is likely that the dust or impurities on the cover glass are focused on, and the focal plane position of this case will have a larger difference from the normal focal plane position, mainly caused by the cover glass caused by the optical path difference.
[0050] In a 170um thickness cover glass example, assuming that the Z axis adjustment is the objective lens height, the normal focal plane position is recorded as 0um, if the focal plane is focused on the cover glass surface, the focal plane needs to be raised by about 122um, which can be judged according to this feature.
[0051] If the thickness deviation of the same batch of glass slides is not large, the average position of the focal plane of the last several successfully scanned slices can be combined as a reference position. If the focal plane model position of the current blurred specimen is about 100 um higher than the reference position, it can be judged that the focus is on the cover glass. The upper limit of the focusing range of the model point is set to the original model point focal plane minus 100 um before rescan. Refocus modeling and scanning are performed. If neither is within the range of 100 um (i.e. the original model point focal plane minus 100 um, then modeling is not successful), the upper and lower limits of the focusing range of the model point are set to the focal plane position of the last successfully scanned specimen + / - 40 um (+ / - 40 um is the range of automatic focusing, and automatic focusing is performed within this range). Refocus modeling and scanning are performed.
[0052] After scanning, if it is still judged that the whole is blurred, it is prompted that there is a scanning quality problem. If it is judged that it is locally blurred, the processing method for local blur is used.
[0053] S4, re-modeling and scanning according to the second preset strategy, judging the image quality of the re-modeled and scanned image, if it meets the preset requirement, executing S6; otherwise, executing S5.
[0054] The second preset strategy includes:
[0055] S41, judging the severity of local blur, if it is serious blur, executing S42, otherwise, executing S43.
[0056] In the case where it has been determined to be blurred (i.e. the focusing factor is less than the second focusing threshold), at this time, the severity is still judged by the focusing factor. If the focusing factor is less than the first focusing threshold, it is determined to be serious blur. If the value of the focusing factor is greater than or equal to the first focusing threshold but less than the second focusing threshold, it is determined to be slight blur. That is, the focusing factor is used as an index to evaluate the blur degree, and two different values of the first focusing threshold and the second focusing threshold are set to judge the blur degree.
[0057] S42, identifying the tissue area and the cover glass area, judging whether there is a tissue area outside the cover glass area, if yes, executing step S43; if no, executing step S45;
[0058] That is, when there is local blur, first determine the severity of local blur, if there is a serious blur field, the great possibility is to focus on the tissue area outside the cover glass (caused by non-standard preparation), due to the cover glass optical path difference, the tissue focal position outside the cover glass will be lower than that inside by about 58 um, and the depth of field of the commonly used objective is about 1 um, which will bring serious blur, at this time, the image algorithm can be used to identify the tissue area and the cover glass area respectively, to determine whether the tissue area is all under the cover glass, if not, only the tissue area under the cover glass is taken as the scanning area, and the model is rebuilt and scanned.
[0059] S43, limit the scanning area to the tissue area within the cover glass area, rebuild the model and scan, determine the image quality, if it meets the preset requirements, execute S6, otherwise, execute S44.
[0060] That is, after limiting the scanning area and rebuilding the model and scanning, if the quality obtained still does not meet the image quality requirements, further determination is needed whether it is still serious blur or has turned to slight blur.
[0061] S44, determine the severity of local blur, if it is serious blur, execute S5, if it is slight blur, execute S45.
[0062] At this time, if it is still serious blur, a scanning quality problem is prompted, and an abnormal quality prompt is output.
[0063] S45, on the basis of the original model points, additional model points are added in the blurred area, the model is rebuilt and scanned, and the image quality of the scanned image after rebuilding the model is determined, if it meets the preset requirements, execute S6; otherwise, execute S5.
[0064] That is, if it is a slight blur field, more model points are set in the blurred area on the basis of the original model points, the model is rebuilt and scanned. For example, if only one field is blurred, one more model point is set at that place, if two consecutive fields are blurred, two more model points are preferably set at that place, if three or more consecutive fields are blurred, at least three more model points are preferably set at that place, and then refocus and rebuild the model and rescan. If the image quality output at this time meets the preset requirements, the image is archived; if the image still has many fields blurred, an abnormal prompt can be output.
[0065] As a preferred embodiment, before S5 is executed to output the abnormality prompt in S45, it can further include S46. That is, the number of blurred fields of view is queried, if the number of blurred fields of view is not less than a number threshold, a walk-stop mode is adopted, and automatic focusing is performed for each field of view; or, an extended depth of field mode is adopted to perform scanning. The extended depth of field mode is to divide the field of view image into blocks, typically into 2*2 or 3*3, and then calculate the focusing factor for each block in turn, for the case that the focal plane difference in the same field of view is large.
[0066] After S46 is executed, the image quality is evaluated again, if there is still unacceptable image blur (for example, the number threshold is 10, when the number of image blur is ≥10), S5 is executed to output the abnormality prompt.
[0067] S5, outputting a quality abnormality prompt.
[0068] At this time, the abnormality prompt is output, and manual intervention or other measures are taken.
[0069] S6, image archiving.
[0070] If the image quality meets the preset requirement, the corresponding image is archived.
[0071] It should be understood that the present application can execute S1-S6 synchronously in the process of scanning the digital slice. That is, it can evaluate and correct the scanning strategy while scanning, without waiting for the whole slice to be scanned to evaluate, so as to further improve the efficiency. Then, at each time, if the image quality at the current time meets the preset requirement, the corresponding image is archived, and the scanning and evaluation actions at the next time are executed.
[0072] Please refer to Figure 3 The present application also discloses a slice scanning device, which comprises an acquisition module, an evaluation module, a correction module, a prompt module and an archiving module
[0073] The acquisition module is used to acquire the scanning image of the digital slice. When the scanning-evaluating strategy is adopted, the acquisition mode is real-time acquisition, without waiting for the whole digital slice to be scanned.
[0074] The evaluation module is used to evaluate the quality of the scanning image, if the scanning image has defects, to determine whether the defect type is overall blur or local blur, and further determine the blur degree of the local blur, that is, whether it is slight blur or serious blur.
[0075] The correction module is used to execute the re-scanning action according to the evaluation result of the evaluation module, according to the first preset strategy and / or the second preset strategy, and feed back the re-scanning result to the evaluation module for the evaluation module to determine whether to continue to correct or to archive. That is, if the evaluation module evaluates that the image quality meets the preset requirement, the track is archived, otherwise, the correction and evaluation confirmation are continued according to the blur type and degree.
[0076] The prompting module is configured to prompt abnormal information when the abnormality that cannot be overcome after the re-scanning action performed by the correction module occurs in the scanned image.
[0077] The archiving module is configured to end the scanning process at the current time and store the scanned image when the qualified scanned image is obtained.
