Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of digestive endoscopy image - assisted diagnosis, and specifically to an artificial - intelligence - based digestive endoscopy image - assisted diagnosis system. Background Technique

[0002] Digestive endoscopy images are images of the internal structure of the digestive tract obtained through digestive endoscopes (such as gastroscopes, colonoscopes, etc.). These images are used for the diagnosis and treatment of digestive tract diseases, such as gastritis, gastric ulcer, colon cancer, etc. Digestive endoscopy images usually have high resolution and can clearly show the details of the digestive tract mucosa, which are important bases for doctors to make diagnoses and treatments.

[0003] However, generally, traditional digestive endoscopy image diagnosis methods mainly rely on doctors' experience and naked - eye observation. Doctors observe the inside of the digestive tract through the endoscope, and based on the characteristics of the image such as color, texture, and shape, combined with their own professional knowledge and experience, they identify and diagnose lesions. However, this method has the following disadvantages:

[0004] The diagnostic results are greatly affected by doctors' personal experience and knowledge level. Different doctors may give different diagnostic opinions on the same lesion. Doctors need to view the endoscopy images frame by frame to find lesions and classify and diagnose them. This process is time - consuming and laborious, with low efficiency. For small or hidden lesions, it may be difficult to detect them with the naked eye, resulting in missed diagnoses.

[0068] Embodiment 2

[0069] Please refer to Figure 2 , in the actual application process of the artificial intelligence-based digestive endoscopy image auxiliary diagnosis system, it specifically includes the following steps:

[0070] S1: Image preprocessing

[0071] S1.1. Conduct a preliminary inspection on the obtained digestive endoscopy images to ensure that the image quality meets the requirements for subsequent processing;

[0072] S1.2. Apply the adaptive histogram equalization algorithm to enhance the contrast of the image to highlight the details of the lesions;

[0073] S1.3. Use the Gaussian filtering algorithm to denoise the image and reduce the influence of random noise on subsequent analysis;

[0074] S2: Micro-lesion detection

[0075] S2.1. Adopt the YOLO algorithm to quickly scan the preprocessed image and locate the possible micro-lesion areas;

[0076] S2.2. Crop the located lesion areas to extract the region of interest (ROI);

[0077] S2.3. Use a convolutional neural network to extract features from the ROI, including key features of texture and shape, as input for subsequent classification;

[0078] S3: Difficult lesion identification

[0079] S3.1. Combine the pyramid pooling technique to perform multi-scale fusion on the extracted lesion features to capture lesion information at different scales;

[0080] S3.2. Introduce channel attention and spatial attention mechanisms to perform weighted processing on the fused features and focus on the key areas of the lesions;

[0081] S3.3. Identify difficult lesions based on the weighted features to improve the recognition accuracy and robustness;

[0082] In this step, specifically, in the identification of difficult lesions, the sizes and shapes of the lesions are diverse, and it is difficult to comprehensively capture the lesion information by single-scale feature extraction. Therefore, this unit uses the Pyramid Pooling Module (PPM) to achieve multi-scale feature fusion, as shown in Equation (1):

[0083] F multiscale = PPM(F input ) (1);

[0084] In the formula, F input represents the input feature map, PPM represents the pyramid pooling operation, and F multiscale represents the fused multi-scale features. The pyramid pooling module performs pooling operations on the input feature map at different scales to obtain multiple-scale feature representations, and then splices or fuses these feature representations to obtain the feature map F multiscale, in this way, even if the sizes and shapes of the lesions are different, their key features can be captured at multiple scales, improving the recognition rate. To further improve the recognition accuracy of difficult lesions, this unit introduces channel attention and spatial attention mechanisms, as shown in Equation (2):

[0085] F attention = σ(W 2 ·δ(W 1 ·F multiscale ))·F multiscale (2);

[0086] In the formula, F multiscale represents the multi-scale feature map, W 1 and W 2 represent the weights of the fully connected layers, δ represents the ReLU activation function, σ represents the Sigmoid activation function, F attention represents the feature map after adding the attention mechanism. The global average pooling is performed on the multi-scale feature map F multiscale to obtain the global features of each channel. Then, through two layers of fully connected layers and activation functions, the weights of each channel are learned. Finally, the weights are multiplied by the original feature map to obtain the feature map F attention after adding the channel attention mechanism. The spatial attention mechanism is similar, but it operates in the spatial dimension. By introducing the attention mechanism, it is possible to focus on the key regions of the lesions, ignore the irrelevant background, and improve the recognition accuracy;

[0087] S4: Lesion classification

[0088] S4.1. Adopt a fine-grained classification method to perform fine classification on the recognized lesions to distinguish different types of lesions;

[0089] S4.2. Train multiple classifiers, integrate the classification results of each classifier, and fuse them through the random forest algorithm;

[0095] S5.4. Use GPU parallel computing to improve the calculation speed of the ray casting method and generate the final three-dimensional image;

[0096] S5.5. Smooth the generated three-dimensional lesion model and perform texture mapping, and provide interactive editing tools for doctors to use;

[0098] S6.1. Perform time series analysis on consecutive endoscopic images, and use long short-term memory network to track the change trend of the lesion;

[0099] S6.2. Use the image difference algorithm to compare adjacent images in the time series and detect the size and morphological changes of the lesion;

[0100] S6.3. Generate a lesion change report according to the change detection results, and provide a basis for doctors to formulate treatment plans;

[0101] S7: Auxiliary decision-making and knowledge graph query

[0102] S7.1. Based on the classification and change information of the lesion, combined with clinical guidelines and medical knowledge bases, generate diagnostic suggestions;

[0103] S7.2. Construct a knowledge graph in the field of digestive endoscopy, provide medical knowledge query services, and support doctors' learning and research;

[0104] S7.3. Integrate the diagnostic suggestions and medical knowledge into the auxiliary decision-making system to provide comprehensive decision-making support for doctors;

[0105] S8: Privacy protection

[0106] S8.1. Encrypt and store the image data and patient information, and use the Advanced Encryption Standard to ensure data security;

[0107] S8.2. Establish an access control mechanism, and manage the permissions of system users based on the role-based access control model;

[0108] S8.3. Regularly conduct security audits and vulnerability scans on the system to ensure the security and stability of the system;
