The invention discloses an incomplete multi-
modal brain tumor segmentation method based on key
modal guided contrast learning, which comprises the following steps: 1, inputting four different
modal MRI images, extracting features through two groups of encoders respectively, and simulating a missing modal through modal codes to obtain FLAIR modal guided group fusion features and T1c modal guided group fusion features; 2, constructing a mode-oriented comparison
branch, and shortening the distance between other
modes and the key mode through comparison learning; 3, constructing a multi-modal segmentation
branch, alternately training the multi-modal segmentation
branch and a modal-oriented comparison branch, and optimizing a segmentation result; and 4, segmenting the input multi-modal
MRI image data by using the trained incomplete multi-modal
brain tumor segmentation model and discarding the modal-oriented contrast branch. According to the method, the distance between other modals and the key modals can be reduced in the scene of medical
MRI image modality deficiency, and key source information is supervised and reserved through the segmentation result, so that the medical
image segmentation performance can be improved.
