In this paper, we present a novel unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA) method, named Domain Adaptive Relational Reasoning (DARR), to generalize 3D multi-organ segmentation models to medical data collected from different scanners and/or protocols (domains). Our method is inspired by the fact that the spatial relationship between internal structures in medical images is relatively fixed, e.g., a spleen is always located at the tail of a pancreas, which serves as a latent variable to transfer the knowledge shared across multiple domains. We formulate the spatial relationship by solving a jigsaw puzzle task, i.e., recovering a CT scan from its shuffled patches, and jointly train it with the organ segmentation task. To guarantee the transferability of the learned spatial relationship to multiple domains, we additionally introduce two schemes: 1) Employing a super-resolution network also jointly trained with the segmentation model to standardize medical images from different domain to a certain spatial resolution; 2) Adapting the spatial relationship for a test image by test-time jigsaw puzzle training. Experimental results show that our method improves the performance by 29.60% DSC on target datasets on average without using any data from the target domain during training.

Most existing approaches to train a unified multi-organ segmentation model from several single-organ datasets require simultaneously access multiple datasets during training. In the real scenarios, due to privacy and ethics concerns, the training dat
a of the organs of interest may not be publicly available. To this end, we investigate a data-free incremental organ segmentation scenario and propose a novel incremental training framework to solve it. We use the pretrained model instead of its own training data for privacy protection. Specifically, given a pretrained $K$ organ segmentation model and a new single-organ dataset, we train a unified $K+1$ organ segmentation model without accessing any data belonging to the previous training stages. Our approach consists of two parts: the background label alignment strategy and the uncertainty-aware guidance strategy. The first part is used for knowledge transfer from the pretained model to the training model. The second part is used to extract the uncertainty information from the pretrained model to guide the whole knowledge transfer process. By combing these two strategies, more reliable information is extracted from the pretrained model without original training data. Experiments on multiple publicly available pretrained models and a multi-organ dataset MOBA have demonstrated the effectiveness of our framework.
Accurate and robust segmentation of abdominal organs on CT is essential for many clinical applications such as computer-aided diagnosis and computer-aided surgery. But this task is challenging due to the weak boundaries of organs, the complexity of t
he background, and the variable sizes of different organs. To address these challenges, we introduce a novel framework for multi-organ segmentation by using organ-attention networks with reverse connections (OAN-RCs) which are applied to 2D views, of the 3D CT volume, and output estimates which are combined by statistical fusion exploiting structural similarity. OAN is a two-stage deep convolutional network, where deep network features from the first stage are combined with the original image, in a second stage, to reduce the complex background and enhance the discriminative information for the target organs. RCs are added to the first stage to give the lower layers semantic information thereby enabling them to adapt to the sizes of different organs. Our networks are trained on 2D views enabling us to use holistic information and allowing efficient computation. To compensate for the limited cross-sectional information of the original 3D volumetric CT, multi-sectional images are reconstructed from the three different 2D view directions. Then we combine the segmentation results from the different views using statistical fusion, with a novel term relating the structural similarity of the 2D views to the original 3D structure. To train the network and evaluate results, 13 structures were manually annotated by four human raters and confirmed by a senior expert on 236 normal cases. We tested our algorithm and computed Dice-Sorensen similarity coefficients and surface distances for evaluating our estimates of the 13 structures. Our experiments show that the proposed approach outperforms 2D- and 3D-patch based state-of-the-art methods.
Deep neural networks have shown exceptional learning capability and generalizability in the source domain when massive labeled data is provided. However, the well-trained models often fail in the target domain due to the domain shift. Unsupervised do
main adaptation aims to improve network performance when applying robust models trained on medical images from source domains to a new target domain. In this work, we present an approach based on the Wasserstein distance guided disentangled representation to achieve 3D multi-domain liver segmentation. Concretely, we embed images onto a shared content space capturing shared feature-level information across domains and domain-specific appearance spaces. The existing mutual information-based representation learning approaches often fail to capture complete representations in multi-domain medical imaging tasks. To mitigate these issues, we utilize Wasserstein distance to learn more complete representation, and introduces a content discriminator to further facilitate the representation disentanglement. Experiments demonstrate that our method outperforms the state-of-the-art on the multi-modality liver segmentation task.
Learning by imitation is one of the most significant abilities of human beings and plays a vital role in humans computational neural system. In medical image analysis, given several exemplars (anchors), experienced radiologist has the ability to deli
neate unfamiliar organs by imitating the reasoning process learned from existing types of organs. Inspired by this observation, we propose OrganNet which learns a generalized organ concept from a set of annotated organ classes and then transfer this concept to unseen classes. In this paper, we show that such process can be integrated into the one-shot segmentation task which is a very challenging but meaningful topic. We propose pyramid reasoning modules (PRMs) to model the anatomical correlation between anchor and target volumes. In practice, the proposed module first computes a correlation matrix between target and anchor computerized tomography (CT) volumes. Then, this matrix is used to transform the feature representations of both anchor volume and its segmentation mask. Finally, OrganNet learns to fuse the representations from various inputs and predicts segmentation results for target volume. Extensive experiments show that OrganNet can effectively resist the wide variations in organ morphology and produce state-of-the-art results in one-shot segmentation task. Moreover, even when compared with fully-supervised segmentation models, OrganNet is still able to produce satisfying segmentation results.
Multi-organ segmentation has extensive applications in many clinical applications. To segment multiple organs of interest, it is generally quite difficult to collect full annotations of all the organs on the same images, as some medical centers might
only annotate a portion of the organs due to their own clinical practice. In most scenarios, one might obtain annotations of a single or a few organs from one training set, and obtain annotations of the the other organs from another set of training images. Existing approaches mostly train and deploy a single model for each subset of organs, which are memory intensive and also time inefficient. In this paper, we propose to co-train weight-averaged models for learning a unified multi-organ segmentation network from few-organ datasets. We collaboratively train two networks and let the coupled networks teach each other on un-annotated organs. To alleviate the noisy teaching supervisions between the networks, the weighted-averaged models are adopted to produce more reliable soft labels. In addition, a novel region mask is utilized to selectively apply the consistent constraint on the un-annotated organ regions that require collaborative teaching, which further boosts the performance. Extensive experiments on three public available single-organ datasets LiTS, KiTS, Pancreas and manually-constructed single-organ datasets from MOBA show that our method can better utilize the few-organ datasets and achieves superior performance with less inference computational cost.
