Large curated datasets are necessary, but annotating medical images is a time-consuming, laborious, and expensive process. Therefore, recent supervised methods are focusing on utilizing a large amount of unlabeled data. However, to do so, is a challenging task. To address this problem, we propose a new 3D Cross-Pseudo Supervision (3D-CPS) method, a semi-supervised network architecture based on nnU-Net with the Cross-Pseudo Supervision method. We design a new nnU-Net based preprocessing. In addition, we set the semi-supervised loss weights to expand linearity with each epoch to prevent the model from low-quality pseudo-labels in the early training process. Our proposed method achieves an average dice similarity coefficient (DSC) of 0.881 and an average normalized surface distance (NSD) of 0.913 on the MICCAI FLARE2022 validation set (20 cases).
Automated abdominal multi-organ segmentation is a crucial yet challenging task in the computer-aided diagnosis of abdominal organ-related diseases. Although numerous deep learning models have achieved remarkable success in many medical image segmentation tasks, accurate segmentation of abdominal organs remains challenging, due to the varying sizes of abdominal organs and the ambiguous boundaries among them. In this paper, we propose a boundary-aware network (BA-Net) to segment abdominal organs on CT scans and MRI scans. This model contains a shared encoder, a boundary decoder, and a segmentati…

In this work, we propose an adversarial attack-based data augmentation method to improve the deep-learning-based segmentation algorithm for the delineation of Organs-At-Risk (OAR) in abdominal Computed Tomography (CT) to facilitate radiation therapy. We introduce Adversarial Feature Attack for Medical Image (AFA-MI) augmentation, which forces the segmentation network to learn out-of-distribution statistics and improve generalization and robustness to noises. AFA-MI augmentation consists of three steps: 1) generate adversarial noises by Fast Gradient Sign Method (FGSM) on the intermediate featu…

Accurate and robust abdominal multi-organ segmentation from CT imaging of different modalities is a challenging task due to complex inter- and intra-organ shape and appearance variations among abdominal organs. In this paper, we propose a probabilistic multi-organ segmentation network with hierarchical spatial-wise feature modulation to capture flexible organ semantic variants and inject the learnt variants into different scales of feature maps for guiding segmentation. More specifically, we design an input decomposition module via a conditional variational auto-encoder to learn organ-specific…

Recent medical image segmentation models are mostly hybrid, which integrate self-attention and convolution layers into the non-isomorphic architecture. However, one potential drawback of these approaches is that they failed to provide an intuitive explanation of why this hybrid combination manner is beneficial, making it difficult for subsequent work to make improvements on top of them. To address this issue, we first analyze the differences between the weight allocation mechanisms of the self-attention and convolution. Based on this analysis, we propose to construct a parallel non-isomorphic …
