摘要: 为解决现有MRI神经网络分割中存在因输入端图像信息多样导致分割精度下降的问题,提出了引入Faster R-CNN和U-net机制的MRI图像分割方法。选择公开心脏MRI分割挑战赛数据集ACDC和SCD,清洗和修改数据集格式后送入后续神经网络。首先,应用Faster R-CNN对目标图像进行检测,以对原始输入图像进行预处理,并去掉冗杂的背景信息。其次,对预处理后的图像进行U-net分割,同时为检验引入Faster R-CNN后,对分割网络的性能和精度是否提高,采用了消融实验和对比实验。消融实验去掉了U-net分割网络中的检测裁剪模块,选择U-net及其改进网络分别做一组消融实验结果。实验结果表明,新方法的平均交并比和Dice系数在ACDC数据集上为0.89和0.94,分别提高了7.3%和5%,在SCD数据集上为0.96和0.98,分别提高了5%和3%,实现了MRI图像的自动预处理和分割。

Abstract: In order to solve the problem that the segmentation accuracy of the existing MRI neural network is reduced due to the diversity of input image information.An MRI image segmentation method using Faster R-CNN and U-net mechanism is proposed.Selecting the public cardiac MRI segmentation challenge datasets ACDC and SCD,cleaning and modifing the format of the dataset and sending them to the subsequent neural network.First,Faster R-CNN is applied to target image detection to preprocess the original input image and remove redundant background information.Second,performing U-net segmentation on the preprocessed images.At the same time,in order to test whether the performance and accuracy of the segmentation network are improved after the introduction of Faster R-CNN,ablation experiments and comparison experiments are conducted.In the ablation experiment,the detection and cropping module in the U-net segmentation network is removed,and the U-net and its improved network are selected to do a set of ablation experiments respectively.Experiments show that the average intersection ratio and Dice coefficient of the new method is 0.89 and 0.94 on the ACDC dataset,respectively,which is 7.3% and 5% higher.On the SCD dataset,it is 0.96 and 0.98,which is 5% and 3% higher,respectively.Automatic preprocessing and segmentation of MRI images is achieved.
