[0060] Furthermore, the intelligent cold cathode imaging device further comprises a lifting platform 41 and a base 5 , wherein the bottom end of the lifting platform 41 is mounted on the base 5 , and the top end is detachably connected to the mounting box 3 .

[0062] like Figure 1 As shown, the specific structure of the intelligent cold cathode imaging device described in this embodiment is as follows: Figure 1In the coordinate system, the central axis of the C-arm 1 in the initial position is parallel to the x-axis and is arranged horizontally, and the center point of the C-arm 1 is the center of the arc where the C-arm is located. The beam catcher 14 is arranged at the top of the inner circumference wall of the C-arm 1, and the digital imaging plate 15 is arranged at the bottom of the inner circumference wall of the C-arm 1. The beam catcher 14 and the digital imaging plate 15 are arranged symmetrically along the z-axis, so the upper and lower parts of the C-arm 1 are symmetrical, and the inner circumference wall at the symmetrical position is provided with an angle detection port 13, and the angle detection port 13 is provided with a laser level, so that medical staff can install the C-arm 1 to the accurate initial position conveniently.

A steering member 22 is provided on one side of the guide box 21, and an installation box 3 is provided on one side of the steering member 22. A steering motor 31 is provided at a position close to the C-arm 1 in the installation box 3, and a driving motor 32 is provided at a position away from the C-arm 1, which meets the need for a larger torque when the C-arm 1 is flipped.

[0065] Embodiment 2

[0066] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, based on the first embodiment, this embodiment proposes an intelligent cold cathode imaging device, wherein the intelligent cold cathode imaging device has a deep learning module based on an attention mechanism, and the deep learning module can generate a two-dimensional annotated image and a three-dimensional annotated image of annotated target bones.

[0067] Specifically, Figure 2 As shown, the multi-angle imaging at least includes: when the steering mechanism outputs a first flip angle, the drive motor 32 outputs a first rotation angle and the digital imaging board 15 acquires a first image, the drive motor 32 outputs a first rotation angle and the digital imaging board 15 acquires a second image, and when the steering mechanism outputs a second flip angle, the drive motor 32 outputs a first rotation angle and the digital imaging board 15 acquires a third image, the drive motor 32 outputs a second rotation angle and the digital imaging board 15 acquires a fourth image;

[0068] The main controller uses the neural network feature extraction mechanism to process the first to fourth images to generate feature vectors 1 to 4 of the target bone respectively;

[0069] The main controller processes the feature vectors one to four through the attention mechanism to enhance the associated features of the target skeleton;

[0070] The main controller deeply fuses feature vectors one to four according to the associated features through a three-dimensional convolution mechanism, generates a two-dimensional image and a three-dimensional image that reasonably connect the target bones in the first imaging to the fourth imaging, annotates the two-dimensional image and the three-dimensional image according to the associated features, and generates the two-dimensional annotated image and the three-dimensional annotated image.

[0071] Furthermore, the attention mechanism includes a compression network and an excitation network that process feature vectors one to four in sequence; the main controller receives sample data of damaged human bones, and trains the neural network feature extraction mechanism, the excitation network and the three-dimensional convolution mechanism based on the sample data.

[0072] Furthermore, multiple groups of compression networks and excitation networks constitute multiple channels of the attention mechanism; the main controller processes the feature vectors one to four respectively through each group of compression networks and excitation networks to enhance different associated features of the target skeleton.

[0073] Specifically, Figure 3 As shown, the multiple channels of the attention mechanism are parallel channels.

[0074] Furthermore, in the three-dimensional convolution mechanism, the main controller performs feature splicing on the feature vectors one to four processed by the attention mechanism to generate splicing features and the two-dimensional image, and performs three-dimensional convolution on the splicing features to generate multi-view features and the three-dimensional image.

[0075] Furthermore, the deep learning module also includes a feature labeling mechanism, which includes at least a pooling layer, a fully connected layer and an activation function; the main controller passes the multi-view features and the features into the pooling layer, the fully connected layer and the activation function in sequence to generate a two-dimensional labeled image and a three-dimensional labeled image of the labeled target skeleton.

[0076] Specifically, the activation function is a Sigmoid (threshold function) layer.

[0077] like Figure 2 and 3 As shown, the attention mechanism of the deep learning module described in this embodiment includes compression and excitation. The excitation part calculates a weight value for each channel in the corresponding feature map according to feature vectors one to four obtained in the compression process, normalizes the weight value through the Sigmoid function to obtain a weight vector, and multiplies all elements in the weight vector to the corresponding channel of the input feature.

[0078] Specifically, the attention mechanism and the three-dimensional convolution mechanism adopt an early fusion strategy to deeply fuse visual features from different perspectives at an earlier stage, and can maintain semantic consistency between visual features from different perspectives, which is more conducive to downstream tasks.

[0079] The attention mechanism is CAM (Channel Attention Module), which enhances the key information between multi-view features through channel attention and suppresses information with low task relevance. The three-dimensional convolution mechanism is the 3D-CM module, which deeply fuses multi-view features through three-dimensional convolution. Three-dimensional convolution can establish connections between visual features of different perspectives, thereby learning the spatial structure and detail information contained in multi-view images. Its extraction of spatial structure features is much better than two-dimensional convolution.

[0080] Specifically, in Figure 2In the invention, the neural network feature extraction mechanism is a CNN (Convolutional Neural Network, channel attention) network, which extracts local visual features of all multi-view images through the CNN network, and then inputs these features into the multi-view feature fusion module for deep fusion to obtain multi-view features. The multi-view features contain complete and semantically consistent visual information, which can be used for the processing of downstream tasks. In order to verify the information extraction capability of the model, the downstream task here is classification and annotation. After the average pooling layer, the multi-view features are compressed into a one-dimensional feature vector of length C, and then the feature vector is sent to the fully connected layer and the Sigmoid layer to realize classification and annotation. Finally, the results of the classification and annotation task are used to generate two-dimensional and three-dimensional annotated images.

[0081] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, CNN is preferably used as the backbone network of the deep learning module, that is, CNN is preferably used as the neural network feature extraction mechanism, and other types of neural networks, such as RNN neural network, may also be used.

[0082] In this embodiment, multi-angle imaging is processed through deep learning based on the attention mechanism to form three-dimensional images and two-dimensional images with annotated medical features, which greatly assists doctors in observing and diagnosing injured parts and achieves more efficient treatment of patients when medical staff in field hospitals are limited. Through the multi-channel attention mechanism, the consistency of the extracted features of the target human skeleton is further guaranteed compared to using only neural networks.

[0083] So far, the technical solutions of the present invention have been described in conjunction with the preferred embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings. However, it is easy for those skilled in the art to understand that the protection scope of the present invention is obviously not limited to these specific embodiments. Without departing from the principle of the present invention, those skilled in the art can make equivalent changes or substitutions to the relevant technical features, and the technical solutions after these changes or substitutions will fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0084] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. For those skilled in the art, the present invention may have various modifications and variations. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
