Systems and methods for processing medical images with multi-layer perceptron neural networks

Described herein are systems, methods, and instrumentalities associated with using a multi-layer perceptron (MLP) neural network to process medical images of an anatomical structure. The processing may include padding an input image in accordance with the training of the MLP neural network, splitting the input image (e.g., the padded input image) into patches of a same size, and processing the patches through the MLP neural network over one or more iterations. During an iteration of the processing, the patches may be processed separately and re-combined into an intermediate image before the intermediate image is shifted to concatenate portions of the image that are derived from different patches. This way, global features of the anatomical structure may be learned and used to improve the quality of the image generated by the MLP neural network, without incurring significant computation or memory costs.

Motion artifact reduction in optical coherence tomography angiography images

PCT designated stageWO2025157199A1Image enhancementImage analysisIntermediate imageOptical coherence tomography angiography
Optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) imaging is vulnerable to artifacts induced by eye motion, including displacement artifacts, duplicated scanning artifacts and white line artifacts. A two-stage framework for sequentially removing the three types of artifacts in a degraded OCTA image is developed. In the first stage, a hierarchical transformer model, named as HFormer, utilizes global features, vertical-line features and intra-vertical-line features of the degraded OCTA image to remove the displacement artifacts and duplicated scanning artifacts to thereby yield an intermediate OCTA image. In the second stage, a residual conditional diffusion model (RCDM) removes the white line artifacts by reconstructing an artifact region of the intermediate OCTA image overlapping with the white line artifacts while avoiding modifying a residual region of the intermediate OCTA image not overlapping with the white line artifacts.
