AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In existing technologies, when biopsy pathology and ultrasound imaging are evaluated independently in preoperative risk stratification assessment of endometrial cancer, the inconsistencies in the conclusions cannot be automatically identified and the confidence weights cannot be dynamically adjusted, leading to inaccurate risk stratification.

Method used

By acquiring ultrasound imaging data and pathological biopsy data, segmentation, labeling, and structured coding are performed to extract radiomics and pathological feature vectors. A cross-modal attention gating module is used to generate dynamic weight vectors, which are then spliced ​​after feature weighted modulation and input into a multi-task prediction network to output risk stratification results.

Benefits of technology

It enables automatic adjustment of confidence levels when there is discrepancy between biopsy and ultrasound imaging assessments, improving the accuracy of preoperative risk stratification, generating more accurate muscle layer invasion depth and lymph node metastasis risk probability, and recommending reasonable surgical plans.

Abstract

This invention provides a method, device, and equipment for preoperative risk stratification assessment of endometrial cancer. It involves segmenting and annotating preoperative ultrasound images to extract radiomics feature vectors, and simultaneously performing structured encoding and mapping of pathological biopsy data to generate pathological feature vectors. These two feature vectors are then input into a fusion network containing a cross-modal attention gating module. This gating module automatically generates dynamic weight vectors based on the consistency between the image and pathological features. The two feature vectors are then weighted and modulated separately before being concatenated to obtain a joint feature representation. This automatically reduces the weight of the lower-confidence modality and amplifies the weight of the higher-confidence modality when their assessment conclusions are inconsistent. Finally, the joint feature representation is input into a multi-task prediction network to output the probability of myometrial invasion depth and the probability of lymph node metastasis risk, thereby generating preoperative risk stratification results and surgical plan recommendations.
