Abstract

The invention provides a new prostate ultrasonoscopy segmentation technique for accurately segmenting a prostate image in a transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) image. A traditional view is that the spots in the TRUS image have intense side effect to target segmentation. In contrast, the segmentation problem is simplified by using the intrinsic attribute of the spots. The technique comprises the steps: firstly, the sizes and the directions of the spots are not entirely distributed at random and comply with certain rule characteristics; secondly, in order to simplify the direction characteristic of the spots, the problem characteristic is extracted by using a rotation-invariant Gabor characteristic; in order to use the size characteristic of the spots, the TRUS image is segmented into a plurality of bar-shaped narrow bands and image pixels are processed differently in different narrow bands; and finally, the correlation among different pixels is considered and the image classification precision is improved by further using the graph cut method. For this reason, the segmentation result of the prostate image in the TRUS image is obtained finally by using a level set segmentation model.

Description

A kind of new prostate Ultrasound Image Segmentation technology
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of image Segmentation Technology, particularly relate to prostate Ultrasound Image Segmentation technology, belong to Computer Image Processing field.
Background technology
At home, the segmentation of some seminar to TRUS image has been had to be studied.As far back as 2003, Southeast China University professor Luo Limin just proposed a kind of multiple dimensioned nonlinear adaptive boundary testing method of ultrasound wave.First the method carries out multi-resolution decomposition to ultrasonoscopy, then suppresses finally to use the image of linear barrier's detection method to noise reduction based on " fillet " to process with reconstruction with wavelet image after speckle noise by non-linear soft thresholding method.But due to the time overhead of region propagation process, its calculated amount is larger.Beijing Jiaotong University professor Ruan Qiuqi proposes one and proposes a kind of Ultrasonic Image Denoising and edge enhancement algorithm: while removing noise, can keep important edge, local detail and ultrasonic echo bright wisp.Although strengthen border to restraint speckle have good effect, do not apply it in the segmentation of image and rim detection.Because ultrasonoscopy signal to noise ratio (S/N ratio) is low, speckle noise strong, above-mentioned simple image enhaucament and edge detection method are difficult to obtain good effect.
Researchist is devoted to combining image feature and domain knowledge, to reaching ideal segmentation effect.The texture features of ultrasonoscopy is one of priori of using under study for action of people.People have also attempted multiple method to utilize this feature to help prostate auto Segmentation.In addition, active performance model (Active Appearance Model) has the advantages that texture information to be embedded in shape, has also shown the potentiality in TRUS Iamge Segmentation.In addition, local binary patterns (Local Binary Pattern) texture feature extraction has also been widely applied in Ultrasound Image Segmentation.2010, the method that the active contour model that Harbin Institute of Technology professor Tang Jianglong proposes a kind of combination overall situation probability density difference and local gray level matching is split ultrasonoscopy.The method make use of the overall situation and the local message of image respectively on raw ultrasound image and pretreatment image.On the original image, utilize the intensity profile in each region, and in conjunction with the background knowledge of ultrasonoscopy to the global information modeling of image.Said method all obtains certain effect, but they all well do not utilize ultrasonoscopy to be different from some inherent characteristicses of natural image, and therefore in actual applications, its performance is all subject to a definite limitation.First, in prostate ultrasonoscopy, the size of speckle noise is not unalterable, but changes along with the distance between itself and ultrasonic probe and change.This characteristic is not embodied and is used in the feature extraction algorithm of current main flow.Secondly, the spot in ultrasonoscopy also has self angle, and angle Non-random distribution, and present certain regularity, therefore, directly use Gabor filtering to be inappropriate for carrying out extraction.The method of the people such as Shen take into account the rotation variation characteristic of Gabor filtering, but does not combine with the rotation of spot further, and therefore its performance is also subject to a definite limitation.In 2006, the people such as Zhan also using Gabor filtering, and be extend in the segmentation of 3D ultrasonoscopy.
Another important priori is prostatic style characteristic.At first, prostatic shape is regarded as hyperelliptic, carries out various conversion by alignment, comes and objective contour matching.The people such as UBC Badiei proposed the artificial initialization of a kind of needs in 2006, use hyperelliptic matching to find the method for prostate margin.This kind of method is simply efficient, has good effect to the prostate of general shape, and comparatively serious for deformation ratio, and target in irregular shape, be then difficult to reach desirable effect.Therefore, a kind of statistical shape model more flexibly obtains the larger concern of researchist, and gives good segmentation result.But, most methods hypothesis prostate shape Gaussian distributed.2007, Institutes Of Technology Of Nanjing professor Xia Deshen proposed a kind of prior shape parametric active contour model.This model is by introducing a kind of prior shape field of force of non-distance property, and build a kind of parametric active contour model that can reflect prior shape newly, new prior shape movable contour model avoids.The calculating of the spacing of curve, decreases the complicacy of model, can well utilize the prior shape information of segmentation object simultaneously.But this model still needed the initial curve of Manual definition's movable contour model before process image.The people such as North America, Philip research institute Yang proposed a kind of new thinking in 2010, use piecemeal activity skeleton pattern (Partial Active Shape Models) process border lose problem, be used in conjunction with discrete can deformation model (Discrete Deformable Model) further to segmentation result refinement.The method uses not pretreated image, does not excavate the information (as texture features) contained in image further.In addition; the method to the modeling of target shape based on principal component analysis (PCA) (Principal Component Analysis); the linear dependence of different dimensions in training set can only be removed; the generally relevant correlativity existed for real data is difficult to thorough removal, thus for and the prostate shape not meeting Gaussian distribution be difficult to obtain good effect.Also similar problem is faced in conjunction with the method for shape under level-set segmentation framework.As the people such as Tsai in directly principal component analysis (PCA) is applied on the surface evolution implicit function of vectorization, although achieve good effect, because the symbolic distance norm dimension of vectorization is too high, the limitation of model is larger.The nonparametric probability model that can approach any distribution is also introduced in medical image segmentation field [36], but these class methods are not due to well in conjunction with the domain knowledge of ultrasonoscopy and clinical practice itself at present, therefore mostly need manual intervention initialization just can meet the requirements of precision, greatly limit its application and expansion further.
Although the shape of non-gaussian distribution achieves more superior achievement in many medical image segmentation fields; Meanwhile, be done much research, non-gaussian shape prior be embedded in the display parted pattern (as movable contour model) and implicit expression parted pattern (as level set) be widely adopted and go.But few people use these non-gaussian shape priors for ultrasonoscopy specially.
Summary of the invention
Technical matters to be solved by this invention is to provide a kind of new prostate Ultrasound Image Segmentation technology, at TRUS image, there is signal to noise ratio (S/N ratio) (signal-to-noise ratio, SNR) low, contrast is low, speckle noise is strong, when artifact interference and same histoorgan intensity profile isomerism are by force and the distribution of different tissues organ intensity has the features such as homoorganicity, solve TRUS Image Automatic Segmentation problem.
Solution of the present invention is: we propose a comparatively comprehensively segmentation framework, incorporate (1) prostate shape prior, the gray scale roll-off characteristic near (2) border and (3) prostate mottled grain characteristic.Traditional view is thought, the spot of TRUS image can cause strong spinoff to Target Segmentation.Unlike this, we utilize the inherent attribute of spot to simplify segmentation problem.First, according to our observed result, the size and Orientation of spot is not completely random distribution, but obeys certain rule characteristic, and these spots are not necessarily harmful to, and even may offer help to prostate segmentation.In order to utilize the directivity characteristics of spot, we used the Gabor characteristic of invariable rotary to extract problem characteristic; In order to utilize the size dimensional properties of spot, we divide into many strip arrowbands TRUS image, in different arrowband, carry out different process to image pixel.Finally, we also contemplate the correlativity between different pixels, and improve pixel classifications precision further by this characteristic use figure (graph cut) method of cutting.Based on this, we, by level-set segmentation model, finally obtain prostatic segmentation result in TRUS image.
The present invention is for realizing above-mentioned solution, and its method step is as follows:
1. feature extractiongabor filtering is the common method of ultrasonoscopy being carried out to texture feature extraction.Gabor filtering can be counted as angle and the adjustable edge of yardstick and line segment detector, and can extract the local feature information of different frequency range by arranging different Rotation and Zoom parameters.The Gabor filter equation of two dimension

λ represents the wavelength factor of sine function, and θ represents the sense of rotation of Gabor function, and Ψ is difference, and σ represents the standard deviation of Gaussian convolution, and γ is spatial aspect ratio.The proper vector that tradition Gabor filtering is extracted can use column vector represent, each element in this vector is , it is with scale parameter .Gabor function and the convolution of original image at position (x, y) place obtain.General, the Selecting parameter of Gabor filtering bunch follows the half adjacent principle between two of the frequency response of each adjacent filter function in frequency domain.
Although Gabor filtering has the ability of stronger texture feature extraction, we also see, Gabor characteristic is extracted and be adapted with the sense of rotation of spot.Notice that the people such as Shen proposed the Gabor characteristic extracting method of invariable rotary in 2003, although its starting point is different from us, but its rotation center is chosen as ultrasonic probe, consistent with our demand, therefore the method can be adopted and improve a little, to reach the object solving above-mentioned first speckle characteristics.Strict, if the circular arc centered by ultrasonic probe, the normal orientation at (x, y) place is that Φ, Φ then can be calculated by following formula

2. tagsortextract according to pixel characteristic, pixels all in image will doubly be divided into three classes.First we can set up the banded arrowband of many arcs in ultrasonoscopy, and in different arrowband, train different characteristics dictionaries to carry out linear expression to pixel, obtain and represent residual error.Then, based on this residual error, we use figure to cut (graph cut) method, the correlativity between each pixel is considered in the lump, obtains final pixel classifications result.
According to the theory in compressed sensing (Compressive Sensing), for each proper vector F and a group of our dictionary D of obtaining in advance, as long as use enough sparse of the expression factor alpha of dictionary D to vectorial F, then finding can by additional on original function to the process of the sparse expression of F norm constraint comes that substitution problem itself proposes minimization problem under norm, now, this sparse expression problem can be expressed as

We obtain second feature of residual error strategy based on ultrasonoscopy.This feature is thought, the size of ultrasonic speckle changes and changes along with the distance at itself and supersonic sounding center.Based on this characteristic, we think and only use Global Dictionary as expression foundation, and what be not sufficient to fully to contain ultrasonic speckle enriches texture features.In order to address this problem, we establish the banded fillet of many arcs in ultrasonoscopy, in these arrowbands, all train separately and have respective expression dictionary.Strict, for each pixel in region interested on image (Region Of Interest, ROI) Ρ, the fillet belonging to it can be calculated by following formula
(6)
Wherein i is the index of arrowband, and c is the center of detector bar, and h is the bandwidth of arrowband.In each arrowband, not in training set, all pixels all bring training wordbook, but only have those pixels in the picture near prostate contours to be just used for training dictionary.For three pixel classes, prostate border class, prostate border inner class and prostate border outer class, we are respectively it in each arrowband and trained respective dictionary.Here once why we will be divided three classes pixel instead of two classes (outside in border and border) intuitively for our first brief explanation.First, in our experiment, we find, although it is larger that pixel is divided into the difficulty of three classes, our method obtains the experimental result consistent with two classes of classifying.Secondly, when being divided into three classes, parted pattern more directly can locate prostate contours (and not needing to be located by the border of two classes in two class situations), thus helps whole parted pattern to obtain better overall segmentation effect.
For the pixel in i-th arrowband bar pif, its proper vector fp, we can use dictionary matrix rarefaction representation is carried out to it, wherein , with represent for prostate border class in i-th arrowband respectively, the dictionary of prostate border inner class and three the class training of prostate border outer class.According to these three dictionaries, pixel pexpression residual error can be calculated by following formula

Wherein
(8)
be such function, it follows k not to be that a dvielement is all set to zero all in α.As for the method for dictionary training, academia has proposed many solutions, has the algorithm of many maturations.
After acquisition represents residual error, we directly do not use the class with minimum expression residual error as the class of this pixel, but get the negative value representing residual error, and all residual errors are normalized to [0,1] interval tolerance belonging to the possibility of a certain class as this pixel.Consider that neighbor has higher possibility and can belong to same class, we use following energy function to cut by figure the classification that (graph cut) finally realizes pixel

Wherein with for step parameter, t represents iterations.
Because our energy equation is based on local message, therefore we need the process of a model initialization to be absorbed in Local Minimum to avoid model.Here, we improve the model initialization method in a upper chapter, to obtaining better effect.Initial method is the exhaustive search on image area.Our initial method is at image an interior exhaustive search process, we can test repeatedly pdifferent value, fix w=0 constant simultaneously, roughly find prostate position in the picture.Each is tested pvalue, we investigate it by three steps.First, because form parameter is set as fixed value, model cannot accurately with the prostate matching in image.Therefore, we are attempted prostatic matching by the energy minimization step of carrying out a few step little to master mould, and in this step, with the ratio that these two step parameters are arranged is larger under normal circumstances.Then, in each step, we calculate contrast energy .Finally, we save corresponding , parameter w and p.After all situations is all tested and terminated, we get n (in our realization n=5) and have minimum situation.In this several situation, have minimum that be regarded as initialization model.We directly do not use formula 10 to carry out initialization is because our energy function has local characteristics, directly use in initial search process formula 10 easily affect by other pixel misclassification result.
