Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of medical imaging technology, and particularly to a method for detecting and analyzing tumor angiogenesis based on multimodal image fusion. Background Art

[0002] In the research of tumor angiogenesis, the traditional two-dimensional in vitro vascular model is very different from the in vivo tumor microenvironment and cannot simulate the three-dimensional structure of in vivo tumors, resulting in great obstacles to the research on tumor angiogenesis and normalization. In addition, the existing 3D tumor models and tumor organoids do not meet the conditions for new blood vessels, restricting the in-depth study of the mechanism of tumor angiogenesis.

[0003] With the development of modern medicine, medical images (such as X-ray films, CT scans, MRI, etc.) have become important tools for doctors to diagnose and treat diseases. Doctors need to accurately analyze and understand medical images to formulate correct diagnostic and treatment plans. However, the analysis and interpretation of medical images require a lot of time and energy from doctors. Especially when faced with a large number of images, it is difficult for doctors to maintain high-quality analysis and interpretation. In addition, different doctors have different experience and skill levels, which may also lead to different interpretations and diagnoses of the same image.

[0004] How to improve the auxiliary level of the diagnostic prediction system through medical images has become an urgent problem to be solved. Summary of the Invention

[0005] Therefore, the present invention aims to provide a method for detecting and analyzing tumor angiogenesis based on multimodal image fusion. This method can provide more comprehensive tumor angiogenesis information by fusing data from different imaging modalities (such as CT, MRI, PET, etc.), and improve the detection and analysis ability of tumor angiogenesis through algorithm optimization.

[0006] To achieve the above object, the present application provides the following technical solutions:

[0007] A method for detecting and analyzing tumor angiogenesis based on multimodal image fusion, comprising:

[0008] S1. Collect multimodal image data of the target tumor;

[0009] S2. Extract features from the collected multimodal image data according to a neural network model;

[0010] S3. Fuse the extracted features through a fusion network to obtain a comprehensive feature vector;

[0011] S4. Analyze the tumor angiogenesis state according to the comprehensive feature vector to obtain an analysis result;

[0012] S5. Evolve the three-dimensional tumor blood vessel model according to the comprehensive feature vector, and fuse the analysis results with the three-dimensional tumor blood vessel model;

[0013] S6. Evaluate the angiogenesis status of the tumor based on the analysis results and the fused three-dimensional model, and generate a report.

[0014] Further, S1 further includes segmenting the multi-modal image data of the target tumor based on a conditional loss function, specifically: segmenting the region of the target tumor based on the conditional loss function;

[0015] The loss function model is:

[0016] ;

[0017] where l ct represents the real tumor image, m ct represents the real tumor segmentation label, l p represents the pseudo-liver image generated by the generator, m p and m ct represent the tumor segmentation label predicted based on the blood vessel structure and the real tumor segmentation label respectively, m pi and m cti represent the i-th tumor segmentation label predicted based on the blood vessel structure and the real tumor segmentation label respectively; represents the absolute value of the pixel-by-pixel difference between the real tumor image and the pseudo-tumor image, H, W, and D represent the height, width, and depth of the tumor image respectively, represents the pixel value of the real tumor image, represents the pixel value of the pseudo-tumor image, represents the binary cross-entropy loss, represents the DSC loss, Ls represents the image loss, and N is the number of images for data acquisition, 、 , represent the weight values respectively.

[0018] Further, feature extraction is performed on the segmented multi-modal image data according to the neural network model, including: the tumor image matching and deformation process and the neural network model feature extraction process;

[0019] Further, the tumor image matching and deformation process includes:

[0020] S21. First, extract key points from the input image. The key points include corner points, edges, and textures;

[0021] S22. After the key points, match the key points in the original image and the target image;

[0022] S23. After the key point matching is completed, calculate the deformation matrix between the original image and the target image; the deformation matrix characterizes the distance and direction that each pixel point needs to move to align the original image with the target image.

[0023] S24. Match and deform the source image according to the calculated deformation matrix.

[0024] Wherein, the original image is an MRI tumor image or a PET tumor image, and the target image is a CT tumor image.

[0025] Further, the feature extraction process of the neural network model includes:

[0026] Use a convolutional neural network with the AlexNet structure to extract the image features of the MRI tumor image, the PET tumor image, and the CT tumor image. Set the 3D convolutional kernel to move sequentially according to a preset step size, and perform a dot product operation on the pixel values of the image at the corresponding covered positions. The result corresponds to a pixel point in the output image, and multiple pixel points after the operation form a feature map.

[0027] Use a pooling layer to perform average pooling on the feature map to obtain a target feature map, and obtain a feature vector through the target feature map, where the feature vector is obtained from the feature map through a flattening operation.

[0028] Further, fuse the extracted features through a fusion network. Among them, the fusion network includes a first-layer network and a second-layer network. The first-layer network fuses the features of different modalities from the micro to the macro, that is, the first-layer network fuses the features of different modalities from high resolution to low resolution. The second-layer network fuses the pairwise-fused features to obtain a first comprehensive feature and a second comprehensive feature. The steps to obtain the first comprehensive feature include:

[0029] In the first-layer network, splice the feature vectors of the MRI tumor image and the PET tumor image to obtain a first comprehensive feature A.

[0030] For example, if the MRI feature vector is [F MRI1 , F MRI2 ,..., F MRIn , and the PET feature vector is [F PET1 , F PET2 ,..., F PETm , the spliced feature vector is [F MRI1 , F MRI2 ,..., F MRIn , F PET1 , F PET2 ,..., F PETm .

[0031] Optionally, in the first layer of the network, the feature vectors of the MRI tumor image and the CT tumor image are concatenated, that is, the first comprehensive feature B,

[0032] Optionally, in the first layer of the network, the feature vectors of the PET tumor image and the CT tumor image are concatenated to obtain a first comprehensive feature C.

[0033] S32, the comprehensive feature vector output by the first layer network is sent to the second layer network to obtain the second comprehensive feature; the second layer network includes a fully connected layer and several convolutional layers to integrate and abstract features;

[0034] Optionally, the first comprehensive features A, B, and C are weighted averaged and input into the second layer network to obtain a second comprehensive feature;

[0035] S33, the second comprehensive feature is used in the softmax layer to generate a predicted blood vessel segmentation result;

[0036] Optionally, the blood vessel segmentation results obtained by the second comprehensive features generated by the first comprehensive features A, B, and C are weighted averaged to make the blood vessel model smoother;

[0037] Furthermore, the tumor angiogenesis state is analyzed according to the comprehensive feature vector to obtain analysis results, which include: vascular density, vascular structure, evaluation of vascular function, vascular inner diameter and carotid intima-media thickness, and location of atherosclerotic plaques.

[0038] Furthermore, the tumor vascular three-dimensional model is evolved according to the comprehensive feature vector, and the analysis result is integrated with the tumor vascular three-dimensional model, including:

[0039] The blood vessel segmentation result is obtained according to the comprehensive feature vector, and a three-dimensional blood vessel model of the tumor area is generated according to the blood vessel segmentation result. The analysis result is color mapped so that the three-dimensional blood vessel model of the tumor area presents different colors.

[0040] Further, evaluating the angiogenesis state of the tumor includes randomly selecting the coordinate values and pixel values of several feature points of the three-dimensional model of the blood vessels in the tumor area and comparing them with the coordinate values and pixel values of the corresponding points on the real scanned image; calculating the cumulative value of the pixel value deviation value and the cumulative value of the coordinate value deviation value; the feature point is the arc protrusion point or the end position point of the blood vessel,

[0041] Furthermore, the evaluation value is: a weighted value of the accumulated value of the pixel value deviation value and the accumulated value of the coordinate value deviation value.

[0042] Furthermore, when the accumulated value of the pixel value deviation, the accumulated value of the coordinate value deviation, the accumulated value of the pixel value deviation and the accumulated value of the coordinate value deviation are all less than the threshold value, the model is qualified.

[0043] A tumor angiogenesis detection and analysis system based on multimodal image fusion, which is used to execute the tumor angiogenesis detection and analysis method based on multimodal image fusion described in any one of the above, includes:

[0044] An image acquisition module, which is used to acquire multimodal image data of a target tumor;

[0045] A feature extraction module, which is used to extract features from the acquired multimodal image data according to a neural network model;
