Automatic deep learning-based myocardial infarction segmentation from delayed enhancement MRI
COMPUTERIZED MEDICAL IMAGING AND GRAPHICS(2022)
摘要
Delayed Enhancement cardiac MRI (DE-MRI) has become indispensable for the diagnosis of myocardial diseases. However, to quantify the disease severity, doctors need time to manually annotate the scar and myocardium. To address this issue, in this paper we propose an automatic myocardial infarction segmentation approach on the left ventricle from short-axis DE-MRI based on Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN). The objective is to segment myocardial infarction on short-axis DE-MRI images of the left ventricle acquired 10 min after the in-jection of a gadolinium-based contrast agent. The segmentation of the infarction area is realized in two stages: a first CNN model finds the contour of myocardium and a second CNN model segments the infarction. Compared to the manual intra-observer and inter-observer variations for the segmentation of myocardial infarction, and to the automatic segmentation with Gaussian Mixture Model, our proposal achieves satisfying segmentation results on our dataset of 904 DE-MRI slices.
