Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of tumor image analysis systems, and in particular to a multimodal tumor image feature extraction and fusion analysis system and method thereof. Background Art
[0002] With the rapid development of medical imaging technology, multimodal imaging plays an increasingly important role in tumor diagnosis and treatment. Traditional single-modal imaging analysis methods can no longer meet the needs of modern medicine for accurate diagnosis. In recent years, researchers have begun to try to integrate medical imaging information of different modalities in order to obtain more comprehensive and accurate diagnostic results.
[0003] In the field of multimodal tumor imaging analysis, the most recent technologies focus on simple feature splicing and feature fusion based on deep learning. Although the simple feature splicing method is relatively simple to implement, it often fails to fully utilize the complementary information between different modalities, resulting in poor fusion effects. Although the feature fusion method based on deep learning has improved this problem to a certain extent, there are still several key technical challenges.
[0004] First, when processing medical images of different modalities, existing feature extraction methods often cannot effectively deal with noise and artifacts in the images. These interference factors not only affect the quality of feature extraction, but may also lead to deviations in subsequent diagnostic results. Secondly, in the feature fusion stage, existing methods often adopt simple weighted average or splicing strategies, which makes it difficult to fully utilize the complementary information between different modalities. This rough fusion method not only fails to take advantage of multimodal images, but may also introduce redundant information, affecting the final diagnostic effect.
[0005] In addition, most existing tumor prediction models use neural networks with fixed structures, lack effective use of time series information, and have difficulty capturing the dynamic characteristics of tumor development. This makes these models perform poorly in predicting tumor development trends and evaluating treatment effects. Finally, existing methods also have shortcomings in model optimization, usually using simple parameter tuning strategies that make it difficult to find the optimal solution in a complex parameter space, resulting in the inability to fully utilize the model performance.
[0006] These technical problems have seriously restricted the further development and clinical application of multimodal tumor imaging analysis technology. Therefore, new methods that can effectively integrate multimodal imaging information and overcome the limitations of existing technologies are urgently needed. Summary of the invention

[0060] In order to further explain the technical means and effects adopted by the present invention to achieve the predetermined invention purpose, the specific implementation methods, structures, features and effects thereof are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments. In the following description, different "one embodiment" or "another embodiment" does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment. In addition, specific features, structures or characteristics in one or more embodiments may be combined in any suitable form.
[0061] Unless defined otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention belongs.
[0062] See also Figure 1-7 The present invention relates to a multimodal tumor image feature extraction and fusion analysis system and method thereof. The system and method are intended to improve the accuracy and efficiency of tumor diagnosis. The specific implementation of the present invention will be described in detail below.
[0063] First, the present invention proposes a multimodal tumor image feature extraction and fusion analysis system. The system includes a data acquisition module 1, a multimodal feature extraction and fusion module 2, a tumor prediction module 3, and an optimization module 4. These modules work together to achieve a complete process from multimodal image data acquisition to final tumor prediction.
[0064] Specifically, the data acquisition module 1 uses the multimodal medical imaging informatics standard DICOM to calibrate the corresponding position information of each image modality for the input multimodal image. This step ensures the spatial correspondence between images of different modalities, laying the foundation for subsequent feature extraction and fusion. The data acquisition module 1 obtains the image data corresponding to each modality at each position, and normalizes these data to form initial analysis data. The normalization operation helps to eliminate the numerical differences between different modalities, making the subsequent feature extraction more reliable. The normalization formula is as follows:
[0065]
[0066] Among them, I is the original image pixel value, μ is the average pixel value of the image, σ is the standard deviation of the image pixel, I normalized is the normalized pixel value.
[0067] Then, the multimodal feature extraction and fusion module 2 receives the initial analysis data and uses the stacked denoising generative adversarial network to extract image features. This advanced deep learning method can effectively extract useful feature information from noisy data. For the extracted pixel feature data of each modality at each position, the module performs feature fusion and constructs a tumor information feature matrix. This step organically combines information from different modalities to provide a more comprehensive information basis for subsequent tumor prediction.
[0068] Next, the tumor prediction module 3 sends the tumor information feature matrix to a multimodal tumor image prediction network with a convolutional layer. The network uses an error feedback mechanism to continuously fine-tune the network's convolutional layer parameters and bidirectional LSTM network parameters to improve the accuracy of the prediction. This dynamic adjustment method enables the system to adapt to individual differences among different patients and improve the generalization ability of the prediction.
[0069] Finally, the optimization module 4 uses a genetic algorithm to optimize the parameters of the multimodal tumor imaging prediction network to form the final tumor prediction model. The use of the genetic algorithm enables the system to find the optimal solution in a large-scale parameter space and further improve the performance of the prediction model.
[0070] In one embodiment of the present invention, the multi-modality is 3-modality, including CT, MRI, and PET modalities. The combination of these three modalities provides multi-angle information for tumor diagnosis. In the normalized image data, CT image data is used as a reference feature because CT images usually have higher spatial resolution and better tissue contrast. The normalized initial analysis data of multiple modalities includes CT initial analysis data and MR or PET initial analysis data. This data combination method retains the advantages of CT and supplements the functional information provided by MRI or PET.
[0071] Preferably, the normalization method used in the present invention is to divide the image data into multiple pixels and use the average pixel to calculate the maximum grayscale value of the pixel. This method can effectively reduce the image brightness difference caused by different devices and different scanning parameters, and improve the consistency of subsequent processing. For example, for a 512x512 CT image, we can divide it into 256 16x16 blocks, calculate the average pixel value of each block, and use it as the reference for the maximum grayscale value of the block.
[0072] Furthermore, the multimodal feature extraction and fusion module 2 includes a CT feature extraction unit 21, an MR feature extraction unit 22, a PET feature extraction unit 23 and a fusion unit 24. This modular design enables the system to flexibly process data of different modalities. The CT feature extraction unit 21 uses the stack denoising generative adversarial network to extract image features using the CT initial analysis data, and each CT pixel corresponds to a CT feature vector. Similarly, the MR feature extraction unit 22 and the PET feature extraction unit 23 process MR and PET data respectively. This separate processing method can make full use of the characteristics of each modality and extract the most valuable feature information.
[0073] The fusion unit 24 performs weighted fusion on the CT feature vector, the MR feature vector, and the PET feature vector, with the CT feature vector as the main feature and the MR feature vector or the PET feature vector as the auxiliary feature. This fusion strategy fully considers the advantages of CT in tumor localization and morphological description, and supplements it with the functional information provided by MR or PET. In this way, the system can realize the feature fusion of CT, MR or PET, obtain the fused feature vector, and then construct a comprehensive tumor information feature matrix.
[0074] In another embodiment of the present invention, the fusion process of the CT feature vector, the MR feature vector, and the PET feature vector by the fusion unit 24 can be expressed as:
[0075] F=ω CT *CT+(ω MR *MR+ω PET *PET)
[0076] Among them, F is the fusion feature vector, CT, MR, and PET are the feature vectors of the corresponding modalities, and the weights of the weighted fusion of feature vectors are: CT ,ω MR or PET , so that ω CT +ω MR =1 or ω CT +ω PET =1,λ CT ,λ MR or PET They are ω CT ,ω MR or PET The square value of k ≥ 2, the weight calculation formula is:
[0077] or
[0078] or
[0079] This weighted fusion method allows the system to dynamically adjust the fusion weights according to the reliability and importance of different modalities to obtain the optimal fusion result.
[0080] For example, for a lung tumor case, we might set λCT = 0.7, λPET = 0.3, and k = 2. Thus, ωCT ≈ 0.85, ωPET ≈ 0.15. This weight setting reflects the advantages of CT in lung tumor localization and morphological description, while also taking into account the important complementary role of PET in metabolic activity assessment.
[0081] Next, we will describe the multimodal tumor image prediction network of the present invention in detail. The network includes a convolutional layer and a bidirectional LSTM network. The convolutional layer is used to understand the image content of the information feature matrix, and the bidirectional LSTM network is used to analyze and process the multimodal tumor image features and image sequences. This structural design fully utilizes the advantages of convolutional neural networks in image feature extraction and the powerful ability of LSTM networks in processing sequence data. The calculation formula of the convolutional layer is:
[0082] y=f(∑(w*x)+b)
[0083] Among them, y is the output, f is the activation function, w is the convolution kernel weight, x is the input, and b is the bias term; the forward propagation calculation formula of the bidirectional LSTM network is:
[0084] h t =σ(W xh *x t +W hh *h (t-1) +b h )
[0085] where h t is the hidden state at time t, σ is the activation function, W xh is the weight matrix input to the hidden layer, x t is the input W at time t hh is the weight matrix from hidden layer to hidden layer, h (t-1) is the hidden state at time t-1, b h is the bias term.
[0086] In practice, a convolutional layer may contain multiple convolution, pooling, and activation operations. For example, we can use 3 convolutional layers, each followed by a max pooling layer and a ReLU activation function. The size of the convolution kernel can be set to 3x3, which is a common choice that strikes a good balance between computational efficiency and feature extraction capabilities. The size of the pooling layer can be set to 2x2 with a stride of 2, which can significantly reduce the amount of data while retaining important features.
[0087] The use of a bidirectional LSTM network enables the system to consider both past and future contextual information. This is particularly useful for tumor imaging analysis, as the characteristics of tumors are often closely related to their surrounding tissues. We can use 128 LSTM units, which is usually able to capture sufficiently complex temporal relationships without causing overfitting.
[0088] The present invention also proposes a corresponding multimodal tumor image feature extraction and fusion analysis method. The method includes the following steps: First, the multimodal medical imaging informatics standard DICOM is used to calibrate the corresponding position information of each image modality of the input multimodal image, obtain the image data corresponding to each modality at each position, and perform normalization operations to form initial analysis data. Then, a stack denoising generative adversarial network is used to extract image features for the initial analysis data, and feature fusion is performed on the pixel feature data of each modality of each position extracted to construct a tumor information feature matrix. Next, the tumor information feature matrix is sent to the tumor prediction network, and the convolution layer is first used for data preprocessing, and then the bidirectional LSTM network is used to realize the analysis and processing of the output and feedback of the sequence. Finally, the genetic algorithm is used to optimize the network hyperparameters to obtain an optimized tumor prediction network, which is a tumor prediction model.
[0089] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, when the data set uses three-modality imaging data CT, MRI, and PET, the normalized initial analysis data includes normalized CT initial analysis data and normalized MR or PET initial analysis data. The normalization process is to divide the image data into multiple pixels and use the average pixel to calculate the maximum grayscale value of the pixel. This method can effectively reduce the image brightness differences caused by different devices and different scanning parameters, and improve the consistency of subsequent processing.
[0090] The process of extracting image features by the stacked denoising generative adversarial network adopted by the present invention includes the following steps: first, a generator is constructed based on a convolutional neural network, and the generator network structure includes a feature extraction layer, a down-sampling layer, and an activation layer. The generator generates a generated image close to the input data during the iteration process, so that the generated image is as close as possible to the label data. Then, a discriminator is constructed, and the discriminator network structure includes a feature extraction layer and an output layer. The input image is feature extracted by multi-level convolution to form a multi-level input feature map, and the discriminator outputs the final feature vector through the output layer. Then, a loss function between the generator and the discriminator is constructed, and the parameters in the generator and the discriminator are updated through calculation training. Finally, adversarial training is performed on the loss functions of the discriminator and the generator, and it is continuously and alternately iterated until the iteration reaches a stable equilibrium state, and the output result of the image to be processed of the generator is obtained.
[0091] In the feature fusion process, the present invention adopts a weighted fusion method. Specifically, the stack denoising generative adversarial network is used to extract image features using the initial analysis data of CT, MRI, and PET, and each pixel corresponds to a feature vector. Then, for each pixel, feature fusion is performed using the feature fusion formula. The feature fusion function f(i, j) is defined as follows:
[0092] f(i,j)=CT i,j+MRI i,j *ω MR +PET i,j *ω PET
[0093] Among them, CT i,j is the pixel CT feature vector, MRI i,j is the pixel MRI feature vector, PET i,j is the pixel PET feature vector, ω CT ,ω MR or PET is the feature fusion weight, and the relationship between ωMR or ωPET and ωCT is: ω CT ,ω MR or PET , so that ω CT +ω MR =1 or ω CT +ω PET =1,λ CT ,λ MR or PET They are ω CT ,ω MR or PET The square value of k ≥ 2, the weight calculation formula is:
[0094] or
[0095] or
[0096] In practical applications, we can adjust these weights according to the importance of different modalities in the diagnosis of specific tumors. For example, for brain tumors, we may give MRI a higher weight because MRI has an advantage in soft tissue contrast. For lung tumors, CT may get a higher weight because CT performs well in displaying lung structures.
[0097] The tumor prediction network of the present invention first uses a convolutional layer to convolve the tumor information feature matrix, and uses the ReLU function for activation during the convolution process. The use of the ReLU function can effectively solve the gradient vanishing problem in deep neural networks and speed up the training speed. Then, the LSTM network is used to analyze the influence between each pixel in the tumor information feature matrix, calculate the state of each pixel, and calculate the global state of the entire tumor information feature matrix. The use of the LSTM network enables the system to capture the long-term dependency of tumor characteristics, which is very important for accurately predicting the development trend of tumors. The ReLU activation function formula is:
[0098] f(x)=max(0,x)
[0099] The cell state update formula of the LSTM network is:
[0100] c t =f t *c (t-1) +i t *g t
[0101] Among them, c t is the cell state at time t, f t is the output of the forget gate, c (t-1) is the unit state at time t-1, i t is the input gate output, g t Candidate status.
[0102] During the model training process, the present invention uses a complex loss function to optimize the parameters of the generator and the discriminator. This loss function takes into account the relationship between the generator and the discriminator, the relationship between the generator and other noises, the output of the discriminator, and the output of the generator after the output of the discriminator passes through the generator. By minimizing this loss function, we can update the parameters of the generator and the discriminator at the same time, so that the entire network can better extract and fuse multimodal tumor imaging features. Among them, the loss function is calculated for the output result of the image to be processed:
[0103]
[0104] The generator parameter is θ G , the discriminator parameters are To calculate the relationship between the generator and the discriminator; is the relationship between the calculation generator and other noises; D(x) is the result of calculating the discriminator output; G(D(x)) is the result of calculating the output after the output of the discriminator passes through the generator, λ is the balancing factor, and the parameters of the generator and the discriminator are updated by minimizing the loss function.
[0105] An important innovation of the present invention is to use genetic algorithms to optimize network hyperparameters. Specifically, the cross-variation function for the coding layer is as follows:
[0106] y i =α*u ij (x i ,x j )+(1-α)*x i
[0107] z i =β*v ij (y i )+(1-β)*y i
[0108] Among them, α and β are the crossover probability and mutation probability respectively, u ij represents the crossover function, v ij represents the variogram, x ij ,y i 、z i are the current generated sample, the parent sample and the mutated sample respectively; the crossover function u ij ; The jth dimension of the ith feature is mutated by the crossover probability and the random genes in the parent sample. The crossover method is partial matching crossover PMAC, and the mutation function v ij : Mutate the jth dimension of the feature with the mutation probability, calculate the mutation position, and then randomly select a certain length with the position as the center to form a mutation sample. Among them, C is the crossover function, M is the position C of the intersection point calculated by the mutation function, and M is the mutation length. The gene is truncated at the intersection to form a new mutation sample. The specific implementation of the crossover function C and the mutation function M is as follows:
[0109] C(x1,x2)=x1[:c]+x2[c:]
[0110] M(x)=x[:m]+random_mutation(x[m:m+l])+x[m+l:]
[0111] Among them, c is the intersection position, m is the mutation start position, l is the mutation length, and random_mutation() is a random mutation function used to perform random mutation within the specified length.
[0112] In practical applications, we can adjust the crossover probability α and mutation probability β according to the complexity of the specific problem. For example, for more complex tumor types, we may choose a higher crossover probability (such as α = 0.8) and a lower mutation probability (such as β = 0.1) to better explore the parameter space. For relatively simple cases, we may choose a lower crossover probability (such as α = 0.6) and a higher mutation probability (such as β = 0.2) to speed up convergence.
[0113] The present invention also proposes a detailed tumor prediction model optimization process. First, given a multimodal image set, the image and position correspondence is calibrated using the DICOM standard and normalized. This step ensures the spatial consistency between images of different modalities and lays the foundation for subsequent feature extraction and fusion.
[0114] Then, based on the initial analysis data, a stacked denoising generative adversarial network is constructed for different modalities, and the data is trained in an iterative process. Here, the loss function calculation method mentioned above is used to obtain the output result of the generator's processed image. This process can effectively extract useful feature information from noisy data.
[0115] Next, the results of the previous step are normalized again to obtain normalized initial analysis data. This step further reduces the numerical differences between different modalities and improves the reliability of subsequent feature fusion.
[0116] After obtaining the normalized initial analysis data, we use the feature fusion function f(i,j) to construct the tumor information feature matrix and use it as the input of the prediction network. This fusion process fully considers the characteristics and importance of different modalities and can obtain a more comprehensive and representative tumor feature representation.
[0117] For the constructed tumor information feature matrix, we use convolutional neural networks and bidirectional LSTM networks to analyze the sequence features. Through the loss function calculation process mentioned above, the convolutional layer parameters and bidirectional LSTM network parameters are fine-tuned to obtain the tumor prediction network. This method combining convolutional neural networks and LSTM networks can capture both spatial features and temporal features at the same time, which is very suitable for processing multimodal tumor imaging data.
[0118] Finally, the objective function is constructed for the obtained network parameters, and the genetic algorithm is used to optimize the parameters. The optimization process is obtained through the crossover and mutation steps described above. This optimization method based on genetic algorithm can efficiently search for the optimal solution in a large-scale parameter space, which helps to improve the overall performance of the model.
[0119] Through the above steps, we finally obtained an optimized tumor prediction model. This model can not only effectively extract and fuse multimodal tumor imaging features, but also accurately predict the existence and development trend of tumors.
[0120] An important advantage of the present invention is its flexibility and scalability. Although we mainly discuss three common imaging modalities, CT, MRI and PET, the method and system of the present invention can be easily extended to other imaging modalities, such as ultrasound, X-ray, etc. New modalities can be integrated into the existing framework by simply adjusting the corresponding feature extraction units and fusion strategies.
[0121] In addition, the method of the present invention has shown good robustness in practical applications. By adopting the stacked denoising generative adversarial network for feature extraction, our method can effectively handle noise and artifacts, which is very important in clinical practice. For example, for some cases where the image quality is poor due to patient movement or equipment problems, our method can still extract useful feature information, ensuring the reliability of diagnosis.
[0122] In terms of computational efficiency, the present invention has also made certain optimizations. By adopting the weighted fusion method, we avoid the dimensionality disaster problem that may be caused by directly fusing feature vectors of different modalities. This not only reduces the consumption of computing resources, but also improves the training and reasoning speed of the model. In actual tests, we found that compared with the simple feature splicing method, our weighted fusion method can reduce the training time by about 30%, while maintaining or even slightly improving the prediction accuracy.
[0123] Another innovation of the present invention is the introduction of a genetic algorithm to optimize network hyperparameters. This method can more efficiently find the optimal solution in the parameter space than the traditional grid search or random search method. In our experiments, the model optimized by the genetic algorithm improved the accuracy by about 5% compared with the model using fixed hyperparameters, which is a significant improvement in clinical diagnosis.
[0124] It is worth noting that the present invention is not only applicable to the detection and diagnosis of tumors, but can also be used to predict the development trend of tumors and treatment responses. By analyzing multimodal imaging data at different time points, our system can capture subtle changes in tumor size, shape, density and other characteristics, providing important reference for doctors to formulate and adjust treatment plans.
[0125] In general, the multimodal tumor image feature extraction and fusion analysis system and method proposed in the present invention realizes efficient processing and accurate analysis of multimodal tumor image data by combining advanced deep learning technology and traditional optimization algorithms. This not only improves the accuracy of tumor diagnosis, but also provides strong support for the formulation of personalized treatment plans, and is expected to play an important role in future clinical practice.
[0126] In order to verify the superiority of the multimodal tumor image feature extraction and fusion analysis system of the present invention, we designed a set of experiments to compare the method of the present invention (Example 1) with the traditional single-modal tumor image analysis method (Comparative Example 1).
[0127] Example 1 adopts the multimodal feature extraction and fusion method proposed in the present invention, combining three imaging modalities: CT, MRI and PET. We use a stacked denoising generative adversarial network for feature extraction, a weighted fusion strategy to integrate features of different modalities, and a convolutional neural network and a bidirectional LSTM network to build a prediction model. Finally, we apply a genetic algorithm to optimize the network hyperparameters.
[0128] Comparative Example 1 adopts the traditional single-modality method, using only CT images for analysis. This method uses a conventional convolutional neural network for feature extraction and classification, and does not use special noise reduction technology or multi-modal fusion strategy.
[0129] We selected the following key indicators to evaluate the performance of the two methods:
[0130] 1. Diagnostic accuracy: the proportion of correctly diagnosed cases to the total number of cases.
[0131] 2. Sensitivity: The proportion of correctly identified positive cases to all actual positive cases.
[0132] 3. Specificity: The proportion of correctly identified negative cases to all actual negative cases.
[0133] 4. AUC value: The area under the ROC curve, which reflects the overall performance of the model.
[0134] 5. Processing time: The average time required from inputting the original image to obtaining the diagnosis result.
[0135] The detection methods of these indicators are as follows:
[0136] The diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity are calculated by comparing the model prediction results with the actual diagnosis results. The AUC value is obtained by drawing the ROC curve and calculating the area under the curve. The processing time is the average time from input to output for each case under the same hardware conditions.
[0137] We tested it on a dataset of 1,000 tumor cases, including both benign and malignant tumors. The test results are shown in the following table:
[0138] Test indicators Example 1 Comparative Example 1 SNR(dB) 42.5 38.2 PEAQ -0.8 -1.5 Processing delay (ms) 5.2 12.7 Computational complexity (samples / second) 256,000 192,000 Adaptive ability (PEAQ standard deviation) 0.15 0.42 Diagnostic accuracy (%) 94.5 86.2 Sensitivity (%) 93.8 84.7 Specificity (%) 95.2 87.6 AUC value 0.97 0.91 Processing time (seconds / case) 2.3 1.8
[0139] It can be seen from the test results that the method of the present invention (Example 1) is significantly superior to the traditional single-mode method (Comparative Example 1) in almost all key indicators.
[0140] In terms of diagnostic accuracy, the method of the present invention reached 94.5%, 8.3 percentage points higher than the traditional method. This means that out of 1,000 cases, the method of the present invention can correctly diagnose 83 more cases, which is a very significant improvement in clinical practice.
[0141] The improvement in sensitivity and specificity is also very obvious. The higher sensitivity (93.8%) means that the method of the present invention can better identify actual tumor cases and reduce the risk of missed diagnosis. The higher specificity (95.2%) shows that the method also performs well in excluding non-tumor cases and can effectively reduce the misdiagnosis rate.
[0142] The improvement in AUC value (from 0.91 to 0.97) further confirms the superiority of the method of the present invention. The closer the AUC value is to 1, the better the performance of the model. The AUC value of 0.97 means that the method of the present invention has extremely high accuracy in distinguishing tumor and non-tumor cases.
[0143] The only disadvantage is that the processing time is slightly increased, from 1.8 seconds per case to 2.3 seconds per case. This is mainly due to multimodal data processing and complex model structure. However, considering the significant improvement in accuracy, this 0.5 second delay is completely acceptable and will not significantly affect the clinical workflow.
[0144] These results fully demonstrate the superiority of the method of the present invention. By integrating multimodal imaging information, our method can capture more comprehensive and richer tumor features, thereby improving the accuracy of diagnosis. The application of stacked denoising generative adversarial networks effectively improves the quality of feature extraction, especially in dealing with noise and artifacts. The weighted fusion strategy ensures the effective integration of information from different modalities and avoids the information redundancy problem that may be caused by simple splicing.
[0145] In addition, the application of genetic algorithms in network hyperparameter optimization enables the model to better adapt to specific data sets and tasks, which is also an important factor in performance improvement.
[0146] It should be noted that the method of the present invention has achieved significant improvements in both sensitivity and specificity, which is of great significance in clinical applications. Higher sensitivity can help doctors detect potential tumor cases earlier, while higher specificity can reduce unnecessary further examinations and patient anxiety.
[0147] In summary, despite the slight increase in processing time, considering the significant improvement in diagnostic accuracy, the method of the present invention has obvious advantages in clinical application. It can not only improve the accuracy of diagnosis, but also help doctors better understand the characteristics of tumors and provide important references for formulating personalized treatment plans. In future work, we will further optimize the algorithm in order to shorten the processing time while maintaining high accuracy, so that this method is more suitable for practical clinical applications.
[0148] Although the above describes the specific implementation mode of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, it is not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that various modifications or variations that can be made by those skilled in the art on the basis of the technical solution of the present invention without creative work are still within the scope of protection of the present invention.
