Edge line processing. In this embodiment, the tumor radiofrequency ablation CT image of the treatment body is first collected through spiral CT.
由于肿瘤射频消融CT影像中不可避免地会出现一些噪声,这些噪声会对肿瘤区域的增强和定位造成一定的干扰。考虑到图像采集过程中会有噪声的干扰,因此将采集到的肿瘤射频消融CT影像采用中值滤波技术对图像进行处理,消除噪声和图像运动干扰造成的影响。需要说明的是,中值滤波技术为现有公知技术,可通过现有技术实现。不在本实施例保护范围内,在此不做相关一一详细阐述。Since some noise inevitably appears in tumor radiofrequency ablation CT images, these noises will cause certain interference in the enhancement and positioning of the tumor area. Considering that there will be noise interference during the image acquisition process, the collected tumor radiofrequency ablation CT images are processed using median filtering technology to eliminate the effects of noise and image motion interference. It should be noted that the median filtering technology is a well-known technology and can be implemented by existing technology. It is not within the protection scope of this embodiment and will not be explained in detail here.
根据本实施例上述方法对治疗体的肿瘤图像进行采集,得到肿瘤射频消融CT影像。According to the above method of this embodiment, the tumor image of the treatment body is collected to obtain the radiofrequency ablation CT image of the tumor.
步骤S002,图像增强模块,对边缘二值图像中每个边缘点为中心像素点的邻域窗口内的肿瘤特征进行分析,提取邻域窗口内的边缘线,分析图像中每个点的肿瘤边缘点增强系数,实现肿瘤射频消融CT影像的增强。Step S002, the image enhancement module analyzes the tumor characteristics in the neighborhood window in which each edge point is the center pixel in the edge binary image, extracts the edge line in the neighborhood window, and analyzes the tumor edge at each point in the image. Point enhancement coefficient realizes the enhancement of tumor radiofrequency ablation CT images.
对于肿瘤射频消融CT影像,考虑到肿瘤区域在肿瘤射频消融CT影像中不显著且受到周围血管等其他因素的干扰。因此,本实施例将设定图像增强模块,用于对肿瘤射频消融CT影像中各个区域进行特征分析,对边缘二值图像中每个边缘点为中心像素点的邻域窗口进行肿瘤特征提取,并计算肿瘤射频消融CT影像中各个点的肿瘤增强系数,以实现对肿瘤射频消融CT影像中的肿瘤区域的精准增强,避免未针对性而导致肿瘤区域增强效果较低的影响。For tumor radiofrequency ablation CT images, it is considered that the tumor area is not significant in tumor radiofrequency ablation CT images and is interfered by other factors such as surrounding blood vessels. Therefore, this embodiment will set up an image enhancement module to perform feature analysis on each area in the tumor radiofrequency ablation CT image, and extract tumor features from the neighborhood window in which each edge point is the center pixel in the edge binary image. And calculate the tumor enhancement coefficient of each point in the tumor radiofrequency ablation CT image to achieve precise enhancement of the tumor area in the tumor radiofrequency ablation CT image and avoid the impact of low enhancement effect of the tumor area caused by untargeted tumor area.
本实施例中图像增强模块主要包括以下步骤:The image enhancement module in this embodiment mainly includes the following steps:
采用Canny算子将肿瘤射频消融CT影像中所有的边缘检测出来,得到边缘轮廓二值图。由于肿瘤射频消融CT影像中的肿瘤边缘可能不太清晰,需要对图像中的肿瘤区域增强,使之相较于其他区域的对比度显示出来,以此来帮助医生更准确的识别患者肿瘤射频消融CT影像中出现肿瘤患病的可能性。The Canny operator is used to detect all edges in tumor radiofrequency ablation CT images, and the edge contour binary map is obtained. Since the tumor edges in tumor radiofrequency ablation CT images may not be clear, it is necessary to enhance the tumor area in the image to show its contrast compared with other areas, so as to help doctors more accurately identify patients' tumors. Radiofrequency ablation CT The possibility of tumors appearing in the images.
由于肿瘤的边缘相较于血管具有不规则的特征,且肿瘤边缘位于边缘曲率半径方向的位置周围不仅会出现肿瘤区域,还会存在一些血管区域,而这种血管的分布较为均匀,相对于肿瘤区域具有较多的血管分叉。Because the edge of the tumor has irregular characteristics compared to blood vessels, and the edge of the tumor is located in the direction of the edge curvature radius, not only the tumor area will appear, but there will also be some blood vessel areas, and the distribution of such blood vessels is relatively uniform, compared with the tumor Areas with more vascular bifurcations.
针对这种情况,对边缘轮廓二值图像中每个边缘点计算其周围邻域窗口内的边缘纹理分布。/>的取值实施者自行设定,这里设定为/>。计算经过邻域窗口内中心像素点且与邻域窗口形成闭合区域的中心边界线上每个边界点的曲率半径向量/>,根据从左到右、从上到下边界线上的第一个边界点作为初始起点,得到邻域窗口内各中心边界线的曲率半径向量序列/>。使用Harris角点检测算法,计算邻域窗口内各中心边界线两侧的角点数量,如果两侧出现的角点数量出现较大的差异,那么这条邻域窗口内的中心边界线就可能为肿瘤疑似边缘线。由此得到每个中心像素点邻域窗口内的各中心边界线的肿瘤线疑似系数,表达式为:In response to this situation, for each edge point in the edge contour binary image, calculate its surrounding Edge texture distribution within neighborhood windows. /> The value of is set by the implementer, here it is set to/> . Calculate the curvature radius vector of each boundary point on the central boundary line that passes through the center pixel in the neighborhood window and forms a closed area with the neighborhood window/> , based on the first boundary point on the boundary line from left to right and from top to bottom as the initial starting point, the curvature radius vector sequence of each central boundary line in the neighborhood window is obtained/> . Use the Harris corner detection algorithm to calculate the number of corner points on both sides of each central boundary line in the neighborhood window. If there is a large difference in the number of corner points appearing on both sides, then the central boundary line in this neighborhood window may be It is the suspected edge line of tumor. From this, the tumor line suspicion coefficient of each central boundary line in the neighborhood window of each central pixel is obtained, and the expression is:
式中,为中心像素点邻域窗口内中心边界线两侧中数量最多的角点数量,/>为中心像素点邻域窗口内中心边界线两侧中数量最少的角点数量,/>表示数量最多一侧的角点数量与数量最少一侧的角点数量的比例系数,该值越大说明该线两侧血管分布越不均匀,其中一侧越可能为肿瘤区域;/>为中心像素点邻域窗口内中心边界线上每个边界点所在的曲率半径的方差,值越大表示邻域窗口内中心边界线上边界点的曲率半径大小分布相比较来说没有规律,即邻域窗口内中心边界线相较于血管线较弯曲;/>为中心像素点邻域窗口内中心边界线上每个边界点所在的曲率半径方向的方差,邻域窗口内中心边界线相较于血管边缘线的曲率半径方向分布也较为混乱;/>为中心像素点邻域窗口内中心边界线的肿瘤线疑似系数,/>越大说明邻域窗口内中心边界线越可能为肿瘤边缘线。In the formula, is the number of corner points with the largest number on both sides of the central boundary line in the center pixel neighborhood window,/> is the minimum number of corner points on both sides of the central boundary line in the center pixel neighborhood window,/> Indicates the proportional coefficient between the number of corner points on the side with the largest number and the number of corner points on the side with the least number. The larger the value, the more uneven the distribution of blood vessels on both sides of the line, and the more likely one side is a tumor area;/> is the variance of the curvature radius of each boundary point on the central boundary line in the neighborhood window of the central pixel point. The larger the value, the larger the value, the smaller the curvature radius size distribution of the boundary points on the central boundary line in the neighborhood window is relatively irregular, that is, The central boundary line in the neighborhood window is more curved than the blood vessel line;/> It is the variance of the curvature radius direction of each boundary point on the central boundary line in the neighborhood window of the central pixel point. The distribution of the curvature radius direction of the central boundary line in the neighborhood window is also more chaotic than that of the blood vessel edge line;/> is the tumor line suspicion coefficient of the central boundary line in the neighborhood window of the central pixel, /> The larger the value, the more likely the central boundary line in the neighborhood window is the tumor edge line.
重复本实施例上述方法,获取边缘轮廓二值图中的各边缘点为中心像素点的邻域窗口内的肿瘤线疑似系数;取中心像素点的邻域窗口内的肿瘤线疑似系数最大的中心边界线作为最终边界线。Repeat the above method in this embodiment to obtain the tumor line suspicion coefficient in the neighborhood window where each edge point in the edge contour binary map is the central pixel point; obtain the center with the largest tumor line suspicion coefficient in the neighborhood window of the center pixel point The boundary line serves as the final boundary line.
由于在边缘向肿瘤中心区域靠拢时,其灰度值会出现变化,且这种灰度值的变化逐渐增大;而在血管一侧的灰度值不会出现这种递变规律。Because when the edge moves closer to the central area of the tumor, its gray value will change, and this change in gray value will gradually increase; while the gray value on the blood vessel side will not show this gradient pattern.
针对这种情况,计算邻域窗口内最终边界线每侧的灰度递变呈现规律性递增的变化程度,得到中心像素点邻域窗口内最终边界线两侧的灰度递变规律。以最终边界线的凹侧为例计算该侧的灰度递变规律。In response to this situation, the grayscale gradient on each side of the final boundary line in the neighborhood window is calculated to show a regular increasing degree of change, and the grayscale gradient pattern on both sides of the final boundary line in the neighborhood window of the central pixel is obtained. Taking the concave side of the final boundary line as an example, calculate the grayscale gradient pattern on this side.
式中,为中心像素点邻域窗口内最终边界线上边界点的数量,/>为中心像素点邻域窗口内最终边界线上第/>个边界点为起点的凹侧区域且沿着边界点/>的曲率半径方向所在直线上的像素点个数,/>为以自然常数为底的指数函数,/>、/>为中心像素点邻域窗口内最终边界线上第/>个边界点为起点的凹侧区域且沿着边界点/>的曲率半径方向所在直线上的第/>个、第/>个相邻两个像素点的灰度值,通过计算/>个最终边界线上每个边界点凹侧区域沿着曲率半径方向所在直线上的/>对相邻像素点之间的灰度变化情况;通过求和得到的值小于0,表示邻域窗口最终边界线上的各边界点凹侧的灰度总体上呈递增变化,说明该侧区域可能为肿瘤边缘灰度值出现递减的区域。/>为中心像素点邻域窗口最终边界线凹侧的灰度递变规律,/>越小,表示凹侧沿着最终边界线上各边界点的曲率半径方向所在直线上的灰度变化呈递增规律,即说明该侧可能为肿瘤区域。In the formula, is the number of boundary points on the final boundary line within the neighborhood window of the center pixel,/> is the final boundary line within the neighborhood window of the center pixel/> The boundary point is the concave side area of the starting point and along the boundary point/> The number of pixels on the straight line in the direction of the curvature radius,/> is an exponential function with natural constants as the base,/> ,/> is the final boundary line within the neighborhood window of the center pixel/> The boundary point is the concave side area of the starting point and along the boundary point/> /> on the straight line where the direction of the curvature radius is located No., No./> The gray value of two adjacent pixels is calculated/> /> Changes in grayscale between adjacent pixels; the value obtained by summing is less than 0, indicating that the grayscale on the concave side of each boundary point on the final boundary line of the neighborhood window generally changes incrementally, indicating that the area on this side may It is the area where the gray value of the tumor edge decreases. /> is the gray gradient pattern on the concave side of the final boundary line of the central pixel neighborhood window,/> The smaller the value, the grayscale changes on the straight line along the curvature radius direction of each boundary point on the final boundary line on the concave side are increasing, which means that this side may be a tumor area.
重复上述步骤,可以中心像素点邻域窗口内最终边界线的凸侧的灰度递变规律。Repeat the above steps to obtain the gray gradient pattern on the convex side of the final boundary line within the neighborhood window of the central pixel.
由于肿瘤的组织密度通常大于周围正常组织,所以在肿瘤射频消融CT影像中,肿瘤一般为高密度的病变区域,且肿瘤区域与周围其他区域的亮度相差较大。Since the tissue density of tumors is usually greater than that of surrounding normal tissues, in tumor radiofrequency ablation CT images, tumors are generally high-density disease areas, and the brightness difference between the tumor area and other surrounding areas is large.
针对这种情况,结合邻域窗口内最终边界线的,计算最终边界线两侧的灰度均值,相差越大越说明最终边界线两侧的灰度分布不同,即两侧中有一侧可能为肿瘤区域。同时取得最终边界线两侧的值最大一侧的灰度递变规律/>和最小一侧的灰度递变规律,其递变差异作为肿瘤一侧灰度递变呈现规律性增加的变化特征。根据每个中心像素点邻域窗口内最终边界线的肿瘤线疑似系数及最终边界线两侧的灰度信息得到每个中心像素点的肿瘤强调系数,具体表达式为:In response to this situation, combined with the final boundary line in the neighborhood window , calculate the mean gray value on both sides of the final boundary line. The larger the difference, the more it indicates that the gray distribution on both sides of the final boundary line is different, that is, one of the two sides may be a tumor area. At the same time, obtain the gray gradient pattern of the side with the largest value on both sides of the final boundary line/> and the gray gradient law of the smallest side , the gradient difference shows a regular increase in the grayscale gradient on one side of the tumor. The tumor emphasis coefficient of each central pixel is obtained based on the tumor line suspicion coefficient of the final boundary line in the neighborhood window of each central pixel and the grayscale information on both sides of the final boundary line. The specific expression is:
式中,为邻域窗口内最终边界线的肿瘤线疑似系数,/>为邻域窗口内最终边界线一侧的灰度均值,/>为邻域窗口内最终边界线另一侧的灰度均值,/>中,通过计算两侧灰度差异,越大表示该边缘线两侧为不同的区域,即其中一侧出现肿瘤的可能性较大;/>为中心像素点邻域窗口的最终边界线中的值最大一侧的灰度递变规律,为中心像素点邻域窗口的最终边界线中的值较小一侧的灰度递变规律,递变差异的比值越大,表示最终边界线两侧的灰度递变规律的差异越大,说明其中灰度递变规律最大的一侧有更大的可能为肿瘤区域;/>为中心像素点邻域窗口的肿瘤强调系数,/>越大,表示该中心像素点周围与肿瘤边缘区域越相似,该中心像素点越可能为肿瘤边缘点。In the formula, is the tumor line suspicion coefficient of the final boundary line in the neighborhood window,/> is the gray average value on one side of the final boundary line in the neighborhood window,/> is the gray average value on the other side of the final boundary line in the neighborhood window,/> , by calculating the grayscale difference on both sides, the larger the value, the greater the difference, indicating that the two sides of the edge line are different areas, that is, the possibility of tumors appearing on one side is greater;/> is the gray gradient law of the side with the largest value in the final boundary line of the center pixel neighborhood window, is the gray gradient pattern on the side with the smaller value in the final boundary line of the center pixel neighborhood window. The greater the ratio of the gradient difference, the greater the difference in the gray gradient pattern on both sides of the final boundary line. This shows that the side with the largest grayscale gradient is more likely to be a tumor area;/> is the tumor emphasis coefficient of the central pixel neighborhood window,/> The larger the value, the more similar the area around the central pixel is to the tumor edge area, and the more likely the central pixel is to be the tumor edge point.
根据得到的边缘轮廓二值图中每个像素点的肿瘤强调系数,通过改变基于局部均方差增强算法中的增强控制系数,根据图像中每个点的低频、高频分量对肿瘤射频消融CT影像中的肿瘤边缘点进行增强。According to the tumor emphasis coefficient of each pixel in the obtained edge contour binary map, by changing the enhancement control coefficient in the local mean square error-based enhancement algorithm, the tumor radiofrequency ablation CT image is modified according to the low-frequency and high-frequency components of each point in the image. The tumor edge points in the image are enhanced.

需要说明的是,取肿瘤射频消融CT影像中/>位置处以该像素点为中心像素点的5x5邻域窗口内像素点的灰度均值,用来确定/>位置处的像素点为高频或低频分量,从而针对各像素点的局部特征进行相应程度的增强。It should be noted, Take tumor radiofrequency ablation CT image/> The average gray value of the pixels in the 5x5 neighborhood window with the pixel as the center pixel at the position is used to determine/> The pixel at the position is a high-frequency or low-frequency component, so that the local characteristics of each pixel are enhanced to a corresponding degree.
通过对边缘轮廓二值图中各边缘点周围的情况进行分析,使得该算法在增强图像时着重增强肿瘤射频消融CT影像中的肿瘤边缘,从而完成肿瘤射频消融CT影像智能增强。By analyzing the situation around each edge point in the edge contour binary map, the algorithm focuses on enhancing the tumor edge in the tumor radiofrequency ablation CT image when enhancing the image, thereby completing intelligent enhancement of the tumor radiofrequency ablation CT image.
综上所述,本实施例通过修正局部均方差增强算法中的增强控制系数,根据肿瘤射频消融CT影像中肿瘤边缘点周围的特征构建特征指标,评估图像中每个点关于肿瘤边缘点的增强系数,避免了增强算法中没有针对肿瘤区域进行增强的特点,提升了增强的准确性。To sum up, this embodiment modifies the enhancement control coefficient in the local mean square error enhancement algorithm, constructs a feature index based on the characteristics around the tumor edge point in the tumor radiofrequency ablation CT image, and evaluates the enhancement of each point in the image with respect to the tumor edge point. coefficient, which avoids the feature of the enhancement algorithm that does not target the tumor area and improves the accuracy of enhancement.
