Abstract

The invention discloses a coarse-to-fine cascade depth network based full-automatic left ventricle segmentation method. The method includes: firstly, subjecting training data to preprocessing and dataenhancement to obtain sufficient training data; secondly, adopting a depth network for detecting a left ventricle included ROI (region of interest), and realizing left ventricle fine segmentation inthe left ventricle ROI by the depth network; finally, mapping left ventricle segmented from the left ventricle ROI into an original input image. In order to improve segmentation performances, the cascade depth network (CasNet) is provided for left ventricle ROI detection and left ventricle fine segmentation, and the cascade network improves left ventricle segmentation accuracy through hidden enhanced training data and step-by-step refining of segmentation results. In addition, each network unit for the cascade network is simple, the defect of influences on efficiency by numerous parameters incomplex networks is avoided, and high efficiency of left ventricle segmentation is guaranteed.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of artificial intelligence medical imaging analysis, and relates to a fully automatic segmentation method of the left ventricle of the heart, in particular to a deep cascade network for left ventricle segmentation and a fully automatic segmentation method from coarse to fine. Background technique [0002] According to the statistical report of the World Health Organization (WHO, World Health Organization), cardiovascular diseases (CVDs, Cardiovascular Diseases) are the leading cause of global population death (Document 1). Rapid and intelligent diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases is crucial for personalized surgical planning and intraoperative navigation (Reference 2). Rapid and accurate segmentation of the left ventricle is a key step in calculating clinical indicators (such as ventricular volume, ejection fraction, etc.) and then diagnosing and treating cardiovascular diseases (Reference 3). However, the...
