Publication number: 20240023927Abstract: For three-dimensional segmentation from two-dimensional intracardiac echocardiography imaging, the three-dimension segmentation is output by a machine-learnt multi-task generator. Rather than the brute force approach of training the generator from 2D ICE images to output a 2D segmentation, the generator is trained from 3D information, such as a sparse ICE volume assembled from the 2D ICE images. Where sufficient ground truth data is not available, computed tomography or magnetic resonance data may be used as the ground truth for the sample sparse ICE volumes. The generator is trained to output both the 3D segmentation and a complete volume (i.e., more voxels represented than in the sparse ICE volume). The 3D segmentation may be further used to project to 2D as an input with an ICE image to another network trained to output a 2D segmentation for the ICE image. Display of the 3D segmentation and/or 2D segmentation may guide ablation of tissue in the patient.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 29, 2023Publication date: January 25, 2024Inventors: Gareth Funka-Lea, Haofu Liao, Shaohua Kevin Zhou, Yefeng Zheng, Yucheng Tang

Patent number: 11854205Abstract: This application relates to a medical image segmentation method, a computer device, and a storage medium. The method includes: obtaining medical image data; obtaining a target object and weakly supervised annotation information of the target object in the medical image data; determining a pseudo segmentation mask for the target object in the medical image data according to the weakly supervised annotation information; and performing mapping on the medical image data by using a preset mapping model based on the pseudo segmentation mask, to obtain a target segmentation result for the target object. Because the medical image data is segmented based on the weakly supervised annotation information, there is no need to annotate information by using much labor during training of the preset mapping model, thereby saving labor costs. The preset mapping model is a model used for mapping the medical image data based on the pseudo segmentation mask.Type: GrantFiled: April 13, 2021Date of Patent: December 26, 2023Assignee: TENCENT TECHNOLOGY (SHENZHEN) COMPANY LIMITEDInventors: Shilei Cao, Kai Ma, Yefeng Zheng
