Embodiment Construction

[0041] The present invention expands U-net to W-net, and uses depth-separable convolution and residual modules in W-net to avoid gradient disappearance due to too deep network, introduces SE module, and distributes weights to each channel , so as to ensure that important features are fully learned, avoid learning useless features, and integrate W-net with conditional generation confrontation network, which can make full use of the strong learning ability of W-net for microvascular features and the strong discrimination ability of CGAN for microvascular features. Extract as many microvessels as possible while ensuring the complete extraction of main vessels. The invention has the advantages of high retinal blood vessel segmentation accuracy and low model complexity, can be used as a computer-aided diagnosis system, improves the doctor's diagnosis efficiency, reduces the misdiagnosis rate, and saves precious time of patients.

Abstract

The invention relates to the application of deep learning algorithms in the field of medical image analysis, in particular to a retinal vessel segmentation algorithm that integrates W-net and conditional generation confrontation network. The present invention better solves the problems of low segmentation sensitivity and insufficient segmentation of microvessels, and achieves great progress in network parameter utilization, information flow and feature resolution, and contributes to complete segmentation of main vessels and fine segmentation of microvessels , and the intersection of blood vessels is not easy to break, and the lesion and optic disc are not easy to be mistakenly divided into blood vessels. The present invention integrates multiple network models with relatively low complexity, and has excellent overall segmentation performance on the DRIVE data set, with sensitivity and accuracy rates of 87.18% and 96.95% respectively, and a ROC curve value of 98.42%, which can be used in medical treatment Computer-aided diagnosis in the field, enabling rapid and automated retinal vessel segmentation.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the application of deep learning algorithms in the field of medical image analysis, in particular to a retinal vessel segmentation algorithm that integrates W-net and conditional generation confrontation network. Background technique [0002] Diabetic retinopathy, cardiovascular disease, hypertension, arteriosclerosis and other diseases have different effects on retinal blood vessels, which can be diagnosed by analyzing the characteristics of blood vessels in retinal fundus images such as length, width, angle, curvature and branch form. In order to obtain a more accurate pathological diagnosis, retinal vessels must be accurately segmented from fundus images, and manual segmentation of retinal vessels is a cumbersome, complex and highly professional task, and the segmentation standards are highly subjective. In order to improve the doctor's diagnostic efficiency and reduce the misdiagnosis rate, a computer-aided diagnosis system...
