The invention discloses a PET / CT
head and neck tumor
automatic segmentation method based on a fusion
diffusion model, and the method comprises the steps: carrying out the preprocessing of input data, carrying out the extraction of exclusive features of a PET / CT image through CFE, carrying out the correction of the features through TAS through region / edge loss, carrying out the construction of a condition
tensor through the corrected features and an original image, inputting DDPM, and carrying out the denoising of a condition, and generating a final segmentation result; according to the customized
feature extraction, an exclusive extraction strategy is designed for PET
metabolism and CT anatomical characteristics, the
modal adaptation defect of a single
encoder is made up, the pertinence and expressive power of cross-
modal features are remarkably enhanced, task-oriented auxiliary supervision improves the segmentation precision through double constraints of region and edge loss, robustness is enhanced, and the segmentation efficiency is improved. A condition
tensor is formed by cascading a PET / CT original image and customized features in an early channel to serve as
diffusion trunk input, so that fine-grained clues are continuously transmitted in a fidelity manner in a
diffusion link,
small target information
dilution and missing detection caused by late fusion are reduced, and the
recall rate of small-size and weak-boundary lesions is increased.
