摘要:
结肠息肉是公认的癌症前体,可通过结肠镜检查识别。虽然大多数息肉是良性的,但息肉的数量、大小和表面结构与结肠癌的风险相关。目前已开发出多种自动化息肉检测与分割的方法。然而,主要问题在于这些方法未能在专门构建的大型多中心数据集上进行严格测试,原因之一是缺乏全面的公开数据集。因此,所开发的方法可能无法泛化到不同的人群数据集。为此,我们从六个不同的中心整理了一个包含超过300名患者的数据集。该数据集包含单帧和序列数据,带有3762个标注的息肉标签,并由六位资深胃肠病学家验证了息肉边界的精确描绘。据我们所知,这是由计算科学家和专家胃肠病学家团队整理的最全面的检测和像素级分割数据集(称为PolypGen)。本文提供了关于数据构建和标注策略、质量保证以及技术验证的见解。我们的数据集可从https://doi.org/10.7303/syn26376615下载。
英文摘要:
Polyps in the colon are widely known cancer precursors identified by colonoscopy. Whilst most polyps are benign, the polyp's number, size and surface structure are linked to the risk of colon cancer. Several methods have been developed to automate polyp detection and segmentation. However, the main issue is that they are not tested rigorously on a large multicentre purpose-built dataset, one reason being the lack of a comprehensive public dataset. As a result, the developed methods may not generalise to different population datasets. To this extent, we have curated a dataset from six unique centres incorporating more than 300 patients. The dataset includes both single frame and sequence data with 3762 annotated polyp labels with precise delineation of polyp boundaries verified by six senior gastroenterologists. To our knowledge, this is the most comprehensive detection and pixel-level segmentation dataset (referred to as \textit{PolypGen}) curated by a team of computational scientists and expert gastroenterologists. The paper provides insight into data construction and annotation strategies, quality assurance, and technical validation.
