摘要:

目的.脑磁共振成像(MRI)对于神经系统疾病的诊断至关重要。最近,已经提出了用于无监督异常检测(UAD)的深度学习方法,用于分析大脑MRI。这些方法依赖于健康的大脑MRI,并且与监督式深度学习相比,消除了对逐像素注释数据的需求。虽然已经提出了各种各样的UAD方法,但这些方法大多是2D的,并且仅从MRI切片学习,而忽略了大脑病变本质上是3D的,并且MRI体积的空间背景仍然未被利用。方法.我们调查是否使用增加的空间上下文,通过使用MRI卷结合空间擦除导致改进的无监督异常分割性能相比,从切片学习。我们评估和比较2D变分自动编码器(VAE),他们的3D对应,提出了3D输入擦除,并系统地研究了数据集的大小对性能的影响。结果使用两个公开可用的分割数据集进行评估,3D VAE优于其2D对应物,突出了体积背景的优势。此外,我们的3D擦除方法允许进一步的性能改进。我们最好的3D VAE与输入擦除导致平均DICE得分为31.40%,而2D VAE为25.76%。结论.我们提出了结合3D擦除的脑MRI中UAD的3D深度学习方法,并证明了3D方法在异常分割方面明显优于2D方法。此外,我们的空间擦除方法允许进一步的性能改进,并减少了对大数据集的要求。

英文摘要:

Purpose. Brain Magnetic Resonance Images (MRIs) are essential for the diagnosis of neurological diseases. Recently, deep learning methods for unsupervised anomaly detection (UAD) have been proposed for the analysis of brain MRI. These methods rely on healthy brain MRIs and eliminate the requirement of pixel-wise annotated data compared to supervised deep learning. While a wide range of methods for UAD have been proposed, these methods are mostly 2D and only learn from MRI slices, disregarding that brain lesions are inherently 3D and the spatial context of MRI volumes remains unexploited. Methods. We investigate whether using increased spatial context by using MRI volumes combined with spatial erasing leads to improved unsupervised anomaly segmentation performance compared to learning from slices. We evaluate and compare 2D variational autoencoder (VAE) to their 3D counterpart, propose 3D input erasing, and systemically study the impact of the data set size on the performance. Results. Using two publicly available segmentation data sets for evaluation, 3D VAE outperform their 2D counterpart, highlighting the advantage of volumetric context. Also, our 3D erasing methods allow for further performance improvements. Our best performing 3D VAE with input erasing leads to an average DICE score of 31.40% compared to 25.76% for the 2D VAE. Conclusions. We propose 3D deep learning methods for UAD in brain MRI combined with 3D erasing and demonstrate that 3D methods clearly outperform their 2D counterpart for anomaly segmentation. Also, our spatial erasing method allows for further performance improvements and reduces the requirement for large data sets.
