An unsupervised deep learning framework for large-scale lung CT deformable image registration
OPTICS AND LASER TECHNOLOGY(2024)
摘要
Accurate lung CT deformable image registration is especially useful in many medical image analyzing domains. In this paper, we present a novel unsupervised deep learning framework to speed up registration processing with high accuracy. Our approach consists of a convolutional neural network (CNN) model with frequent connections between layers for extracting robust image features, and of well-designed pre-processing and post-processing techniques to handle with large images without losing the precision. Additionally, during training stage, the local cross coefficient (LCC) and L2-norm for gradients of dense displacement fields (DDF) are adopted to form loss function in the model. Experiments on a large-scale lung CT dataset with each image size of over 400 x 400 x 350 show that our method achieves the best performances on Dice score of 0.9245 and mean squared error (MSE) of 0.0046 compared with some traditional and learning-based methods. Besides, our model has been proved to be robust for various deformations. Above all, our method is several orders of magnitude faster than the state-of-the-art non-learning-based algorithms.
