Segmentation of multiple anatomical structures is of great importance in medical image analysis. In this study, we proposed a $mathcal{W}$-net to simultaneously segment both the optic disc (OD) and the exudates in retinal images based on the multi-task learning (MTL) scheme. We introduced a class-balanced loss and a multi-task weighted loss to alleviate the imbalanced problem and to improve the robustness and generalization property of the $mathcal{W}$-net. We demonstrated the effectiveness of our approach by applying five-fold cross-validation experiments on two public datasets e_ophtha_EX and DiaRetDb1. We achieved F1-score of 94.76% and 95.73% for OD segmentation, and 92.80% and 94.14% for exudates segmentation. To further prove the generalization property of the proposed method, we applied the trained model on the DRIONS-DB dataset for OD segmentation and on the MESSIDOR dataset for exudate segmentation. Our results demonstrated that by choosing the optimal weights of each task, the MTL based $mathcal{W}$-net outperformed separate models trained individually on each task. Code and pre-trained models will be available at: url{https://github.com/FundusResearch/MTL_for_OD_and_exudates.git}.

The Medico: Multimedia Task 2020 focuses on developing an efficient and accurate computer-aided diagnosis system for automatic segmentation [3]. We participate in task 1, Polyps segmentation task, which is to develop algorithms for segmenting polyps
on a comprehensive dataset. In this task, we propose methods combining Residual module, Inception module, Adaptive Convolutional neural network with U-Net model, and PraNet for semantic segmentation of various types of polyps in endoscopic images. We select 5 runs with different architecture and parameters in our methods. Our methods show potential results in accuracy and efficiency through multiple experiments, and our team is in the Top 3 best results with a Jaccard index of 0.765.
Retinal artery/vein (A/V) classification plays a critical role in the clinical biomarker study of how various systemic and cardiovascular diseases affect the retinal vessels. Conventional methods of automated A/V classification are generally complica
ted and heavily depend on the accurate vessel segmentation. In this paper, we propose a multi-task deep neural network with spatial activation mechanism that is able to segment full retinal vessel, artery and vein simultaneously, without the pre-requirement of vessel segmentation. The input module of the network integrates the domain knowledge of widely used retinal preprocessing and vessel enhancement techniques. We specially customize the output block of the network with a spatial activation mechanism, which takes advantage of a relatively easier task of vessel segmentation and exploits it to boost the performance of A/V classification. In addition, deep supervision is introduced to the network to assist the low level layers to extract more semantic information. The proposed network achieves pixel-wise accuracy of 95.70% for vessel segmentation, and A/V classification accuracy of 94.50%, which is the state-of-the-art performance for both tasks on the AV-DRIVE dataset. Furthermore, we have also tested the model performance on INSPIRE-AVR dataset, which achieves a skeletal A/V classification accuracy of 91.6%.
Gastric cancer is one of the most common cancers, which ranks third among the leading causes of cancer death. Biopsy of gastric mucosa is a standard procedure in gastric cancer screening test. However, manual pathological inspection is labor-intensiv
e and time-consuming. Besides, it is challenging for an automated algorithm to locate the small lesion regions in the gigapixel whole-slide image and make the decision correctly.To tackle these issues, we collected large-scale whole-slide image dataset with detailed lesion region annotation and designed a whole-slide image analyzing framework consisting of 3 networks which could not only determine the screening result but also present the suspicious areas to the pathologist for reference. Experiments demonstrated that our proposed framework achieves sensitivity of 97.05% and specificity of 92.72% in screening task and Dice coefficient of 0.8331 in segmentation task. Furthermore, we tested our best model in real-world scenario on 10,315 whole-slide images collected from 4 medical centers.
Performing coarse-to-fine abdominal multi-organ segmentation facilitates to extract high-resolution segmentation minimizing the lost of spatial contextual information. However, current coarse-to-refine approaches require a significant number of model
s to perform single organ refine segmentation corresponding to the extracted organ region of interest (ROI). We propose a coarse-to-fine pipeline, which starts from the extraction of the global prior context of multiple organs from 3D volumes using a low-resolution coarse network, followed by a fine phase that uses a single refined model to segment all abdominal organs instead of multiple organ corresponding models. We combine the anatomical prior with corresponding extracted patches to preserve the anatomical locations and boundary information for performing high-resolution segmentation across all organs in a single model. To train and evaluate our method, a clinical research cohort consisting of 100 patient volumes with 13 organs well-annotated is used. We tested our algorithms with 4-fold cross-validation and computed the Dice score for evaluating the segmentation performance of the 13 organs. Our proposed method using single auto-context outperforms the state-of-the-art on 13 models with an average Dice score 84.58% versus 81.69% (p<0.0001).
The purpose of this study was to develop a fully-automated segmentation algorithm, robust to various density enhancing lung abnormalities, to facilitate rapid quantitative analysis of computed tomography images. A polymorphic training approach is pro
posed, in which both specifically labeled left and right lungs of humans with COPD, and nonspecifically labeled lungs of animals with acute lung injury, were incorporated into training a single neural network. The resulting network is intended for predicting left and right lung regions in humans with or without diffuse opacification and consolidation. Performance of the proposed lung segmentation algorithm was extensively evaluated on CT scans of subjects with COPD, confirmed COVID-19, lung cancer, and IPF, despite no labeled training data of the latter three diseases. Lobar segmentations were obtained using the left and right lung segmentation as input to the LobeNet algorithm. Regional lobar analysis was performed using hierarchical clustering to identify radiographic subtypes of COVID-19. The proposed lung segmentation algorithm was quantitatively evaluated using semi-automated and manually-corrected segmentations in 87 COVID-19 CT images, achieving an average symmetric surface distance of $0.495 pm 0.309$ mm and Dice coefficient of $0.985 pm 0.011$. Hierarchical clustering identified four radiographical phenotypes of COVID-19 based on lobar fractions of consolidated and poorly aerated tissue. Lower left and lower right lobes were consistently more afflicted with poor aeration and consolidation. However, the most severe cases demonstrated involvement of all lobes. The polymorphic training approach was able to accurately segment COVID-19 cases with diffuse consolidation without requiring COVID-19 cases for training.
