三维精细血管重建方法及其系统Three-dimensional fine blood vessel reconstruction method and system

技术领域technical field

本发明涉及数字图像处理与医学成像的交叉领域,具体地,涉及一种三维精细血管重建方法及其系统。The invention relates to the intersection field of digital image processing and medical imaging, in particular to a three-dimensional fine blood vessel reconstruction method and system thereof.

背景技术Background technique

在生物医学领域,不同的成像技术可以观察到不同的现象和数据,可以综合考虑不同扫描设备的优势,获取真实生物软组织多种尺度下的细微观图像数据。CT图像是对人体某一部分的扫描图像,可以对血管、肿瘤等组织成像,虽然成像完整,但其缺点在于扫描数据的细节质量明显不如组织切片,而且能分辨的组织类型有限。利用光学和电子显微镜对组织切片成像,能够获取分辨清晰度更高、组织结构类型更丰富的细微观多尺度图像数据,但获得的图像数据易存在局部区域缺失的问题,因此,需要对高精度扫描图像中的局部缺失区域进行修复重建。In the field of biomedicine, different imaging technologies can observe different phenomena and data, and the advantages of different scanning equipment can be considered comprehensively to obtain microscopic image data of real biological soft tissues at multiple scales. A CT image is a scanned image of a certain part of the human body. It can image blood vessels, tumors and other tissues. Although the imaging is complete, its disadvantage is that the quality of details of the scanned data is obviously not as good as that of tissue slices, and the types of tissues that can be distinguished are limited. Using optical and electron microscopes to image tissue slices can obtain fine-scale multi-scale image data with higher resolution and richer tissue structure types, but the obtained image data is prone to missing local areas. Therefore, high-precision Local missing regions in scanned images are repaired and reconstructed.

医学中的三维精细血管图像有着类似树形的复杂拓扑,尤其血管分支上存在分叉区域,而且分叉区域的分支数量多少不一,同时血管的粗细尺度变化大,在可视化研究中,对血管的体绘制一直是个棘手的问题,而外科手术中对主要的血管形态需要有准确的描述,以辅助医生及时选择合理治疗方法,比如从血管的三维结构上观察和确定病变位置,做出快速诊断;为手术计划提供直观的参考依据。因此一旦三维精细血管图像出现局部缺失,就会影响医生的诊断。The three-dimensional fine blood vessel image in medicine has a complex tree-like topology, especially the bifurcation area on the branch of the blood vessel, and the number of branches in the bifurcation area is different, and the thickness of the blood vessel varies greatly. Volume rendering has always been a thorny problem, and the main vascular morphology needs to be accurately described in surgery to assist doctors in choosing reasonable treatment methods in a timely manner, such as observing and determining the location of lesions from the three-dimensional structure of blood vessels, and making a rapid diagnosis ; Provide intuitive reference basis for operation planning. Therefore, once the three-dimensional fine blood vessel image is partially missing, it will affect the doctor's diagnosis.

所以,有必要提供一种针对有缺失部位的高精度的三维精细血管图像进行重建的技术方案。Therefore, it is necessary to provide a technical solution for reconstructing high-precision three-dimensional fine blood vessel images with missing parts.

请参阅图4,为图2所示三维精细血管重建方法中步骤S2的流程图。由于采集设备光强的误差,三维精细血管等医学图像中感兴趣部位(即血管区域)的灰度值可能并不明显,为了便于对图像进行修复,需要先对图像进行增强处理,增强关键结构的匹配。Please refer to FIG. 4 , which is a flowchart of step S2 in the three-dimensional fine vessel reconstruction method shown in FIG. 2 . Due to the error of the light intensity of the acquisition equipment, the gray value of the interesting part (that is, the blood vessel area) in the three-dimensional fine blood vessel and other medical images may not be obvious. In order to facilitate image restoration, the image needs to be enhanced first to enhance the key structure. match.

根据结构张量能够识别图像中的边缘、角点以及平坦区域,结构张量是对图像中的像素利用矩阵组织的数据结构,其形式便是Hessian矩阵。对于形状特征特殊的血管图像,血管截面的灰度成像高斯分布的特性,可以利用结构张量有效得到血管所需特征,进而对其进行特征增强。According to the structure tensor, the edges, corners and flat areas in the image can be identified. The structure tensor is a data structure organized by a matrix for the pixels in the image, and its form is the Hessian matrix. For blood vessel images with special shape features, the characteristics of Gaussian distribution of gray-scale imaging of blood vessel sections can use the structure tensor to effectively obtain the required characteristics of blood vessels, and then enhance their features.

步骤S21-1、计算所述三维精细血管原始图像中各像素点的二阶偏导数和混合偏导数;Step S21-1, calculating the second-order partial derivative and mixed partial derivative of each pixel in the original image of the three-dimensional fine blood vessel;

步骤S21-2、以计算的二阶偏导数和混合偏导数组成Hessian矩阵与所述三维精细血管原始图像做卷积运算;Step S21-2, using the calculated second-order partial derivatives and mixed partial derivatives to form a Hessian matrix and perform a convolution operation with the original image of the three-dimensional fine blood vessels;

步骤S21-3、求得特征值λ1、λ2及λ3和与所述特征值对应的特征向量γ1、γ2及γ3,且|λ1|<|λ2|<|λ3|。Step S21-3, obtain the eigenvalues λ1 , λ2 and λ3 and the eigenvectors γ1 , γ2 and γ3 corresponding to the eigenvalues, and |λ1 |<|λ2 |<|λ3 |.

具体过程为:The specific process is:

设Vx,Vy,Vz分别为x,y,z方向的偏导数,计算所述三维精细血管原始图像中各像素点的二阶偏导数和混合偏导数,其中Vσ=Gσ*V,*代表卷积算子,通过高斯函数(1)获得不同尺度σ中的线性增强滤波。进行局部特性分析时,以当前处理像素点为中心,在当前所处理的图像数据上,取半宽为3σ的矩形窗口,足以包含血管的直径。Let Vx , Vy , and Vz be the partial derivatives in the x, y, and z directions respectively, Calculate the second-order partial derivatives and mixed partial derivatives of each pixel in the three-dimensional fine blood vessel original image, where Vσ =Gσ *V, * represents the convolution operator, and the Gaussian function (1) is used to obtain the Linear enhancement filtering. When performing local characteristic analysis, take the currently processed pixel as the center and take a rectangular window with a half-width of 3σ on the currently processed image data, which is sufficient to include the diameter of the blood vessel.

所述高斯函数(1)为:Described Gaussian function (1) is:

结构张量(是一个三维的Hessian矩阵)定义如下式(2):structure tensor (is a three-dimensional Hessian matrix) defined as follows (2):

其中是笛卡尔内积;存在一个三维正交矩阵S,使得其中Λ=diag(λm)的对角元素是的特征值,组成矩阵S的各行向量即为结构张量Υ的特征向量,分别记为λ1、λ2及λ3,且满足|λ1|<|λ2|<|λ3|,与三个特征值分别一一对应的三个特征向量记为γ1、γ2及γ3,其中γ1⊥λ21⊥λ32⊥λ3。结构张量Υ的特征值λ1、λ2及λ3能够体现出图像灰度在相应特征向量方向上的变化速度。图像的边缘强度大,可以量化为结构张量Υ较大的特征值。in is the Cartesian inner product; there exists a three-dimensional orthogonal matrix S such that where the diagonal elements of Λ=diag(λm ) are The eigenvalues of the matrix S, the row vectors of the matrix S are the eigenvectors of the structure tensor Y, denoted as λ1 , λ2 and λ3 respectively, and satisfy |λ1 |<|λ2 |<|λ3 |, and The three eigenvectors corresponding to the three eigenvalues are denoted as γ1 , γ2 and γ3 , where γ1 ⊥λ2 , γ1 ⊥λ3 , and γ2 ⊥λ3 . The eigenvalues λ1 , λ2 and λ3 of the structure tensor Y can reflect the change speed of the image gray level in the direction of the corresponding eigenvector. The edge strength of the image is large, which can be quantized as the eigenvalue with large structure tensor Υ.

a.|λ1|≈0,|λ2|≈0,|λ3|≈0,可判定为平坦区域;可以判定为面状结构;可以判定为管状结构;可判定为球状结构。a.|λ1 |≈0,|λ2 |≈0,|λ3 |≈0, can be judged as a flat area; Can be judged as planar structure; It can be judged as a tubular structure; It can be judged as spherical structure.

通过上述分析,对于理想的三维精细血管图像,其特征值及特征向量的关系应该如下式(3):Through the above analysis, for an ideal three-dimensional fine blood vessel image, the relationship between its eigenvalues and eigenvectors should be as follows (3):

其中λ23均为负数,表示了在三维精细血管图像中感兴趣部位为高亮区而背景为阴暗区;矩阵的两个特征向量γ23组成的面所代表的是三维精细血管的切面,而最小特征值所对应的特征向量γ1代表的是三维精细血管的走向,即三维精细血管的延伸方向。Among them, λ2 and λ3 are both negative numbers, which means that in the three-dimensional fine blood vessel image, the part of interest is a bright area and the background is a dark area; the surface composed of two eigenvectors γ2 and γ3 of the matrix represents a three-dimensional The cut plane of the fine blood vessels, and the eigenvector γ1 corresponding to the minimum eigenvalue represents the direction of the three-dimensional fine blood vessels, that is, the extension direction of the three-dimensional fine blood vessels.

步骤S22、建立血管区域特征函数:基于血管特性并根据所述特征值和特征向量建立血管区域特征函数。Step S22 , establishing the characteristic function of the blood vessel area: establishing the characteristic function of the blood vessel area based on the characteristics of the blood vessel and according to the eigenvalues and the eigenvectors.

现有的血管区域增强算法:根据所述特征值λ1、λ2、λ3和所述特征向量γ1、γ2、γ3,首先定义了变量RA、RB及S,分别如下式(4)、(5)、(6):Existing blood vessel region enhancement algorithm: According to the eigenvalues λ1 , λ2 , λ3 and the eigenvectors γ1 , γ2 , γ3 , the variablesRA ,RB and S are first defined, respectively as follows: (4), (5), (6):

RA=|λ2|/|λ3| (4);RA = |λ2 |/|λ3 | (4);

变量RA的值可以估计当前处理图像属于管状结构的可能性,其值越大,越可能属于管状结构;The value of the variable RA can estimate the possibility that the currently processed image belongs to the tubular structure, and the larger the value, the more likely it belongs to the tubular structure;

RRBB==||&lambda;&lambda;11||//&lambda;&lambda;22&lambda;&lambda;33------((55));;

变量RB的值可以估计当前处理图像属于盘状结构的可能性,其值越大,越可能属于盘状结构;The value of the variableRB can estimate the possibility that the currently processed image belongs to the discoid structure, and the larger the value, the more likely it belongs to the discoid structure;

SS==&lambda;&lambda;1122++&lambda;&lambda;2222++&lambda;&lambda;3322------((66));;

变量S取所述三个特征值的平方和,可以模糊判断当前处理图像属于结构性较强的区域。The variable S takes the sum of the squares of the three eigenvalues, which can be used to fuzzily determine that the currently processed image belongs to an area with strong structure.

根据所述变量RA、RB及S定义的现有血管区域函数为下式(7):The existing blood vessel area function defined according to the variablesRA ,RB and S is the following formula (7):

CC((&lambda;&lambda;))==&lsqb;&lsqb;11--expexp((--RRAA2222aa22))&rsqb;&rsqb;&lsqb;&lsqb;expexp((--RRBB2222bb22))&rsqb;&rsqb;&lsqb;&lsqb;11--expexp((--SS2222cc22))&rsqb;&rsqb;,,iiff&lambda;&lambda;22,,&lambda;&lambda;33<<0000,,eellsthe see------((77));;

其中,a、b以及c分别为平面结构参数、球状结构参数及背景区分参数,根据经验以及所选尺度选取。Among them, a, b, and c are planar structure parameters, spherical structure parameters, and background discrimination parameters, respectively, which are selected according to experience and selected scales.

针对真实的三维精细血管图像,血管粗细及拓扑都不规则,血管粗细不等,对于非常细的血管,其交叉点几乎可以忽略,但是对于较粗的血管,其分叉区域就不容忽视了。For real three-dimensional fine blood vessel images, the thickness and topology of blood vessels are irregular, and the thickness of blood vessels varies. For very thin blood vessels, the intersection points can be almost ignored, but for thicker blood vessels, the bifurcation area cannot be ignored.

根据公式(5)计算变量RB时,若当前处理图像为盘状结构或分叉区域,λ1是和λ2、λ3大小相当的负数,这两种情况下,变量RB的值均较大;若当前处理图像为血管弧度较大的区域,RB的值也会较大。When the variable RB is calculated according to formula (5), if the currently processed image is a disk-shaped structure or a bifurcation area, λ1 is a negative number comparable to λ2 and λ3 , in both cases, the value of the variableRB is equal to Larger; if the currently processed image is an area with a large vascular arc, the value ofRB will also be larger.

但根据公式(7)计算现有血管区域函数时,RB越小,当前处理图像属于血管区域的权值越大,因而在特殊情况下,根据公式(7)判断当前处理图像会出现错误,所以应该找回被忽略的分叉区域和血管弧度较大的区域。However, when calculating the function of the existing blood vessel area according to formula (7), the smaller theRB , the greater the weight of the current processing image belonging to the blood vessel area. Therefore, in special cases, it will be wrong to judge the current processing image according to formula (7). Therefore, the neglected bifurcation area and the area with large vascular curvature should be retrieved.

本发明假设所述特征向量γ1、γ2、γ3的反方向分别对应为τ123,所述特征向量γ1、γ2、γ3指向血管壁,在一定概率下,τ123中有至少一个方向指向血管延伸方向,如果沿着τ123其中某一方向像素灰度值变化缓慢,则可以判定为有效的血管区域。The present invention assumes that the opposite directions of the eigenvectors γ1 , γ2 , and γ3 correspond to τ1 , τ2 , and τ3 respectively, and the eigenvectors γ1 , γ2 , and γ3 point to the vessel wall. Under a certain probability , τ1 , τ2 , τ3 have at least one direction pointing to the blood vessel extension direction, and if the pixel gray value changes slowly along one of τ1 , τ2 , τ3 directions, it can be determined as an effective blood vessel region.

定义沿方向τ的梯度方向对于尺度σ,计算得到沿此梯度方向的变化率的大小k,设三个方向τ123的灰度变化率大小分别为k1,k2,k3,本发明定义新变量即血管角点区域特性RD,如下式(8):Define the direction of the gradient along direction τ For the scale σ, the magnitude k of the rate of change along the gradient direction is calculated, and the grayscale change rates of the three directions τ1 , τ2 , τ3 are respectively k1 , k2 , k3 , and the present invention defines a new The variable is the characteristic RD of the blood vessel corner area, as shown in the following formula (8):

RRDD.==11--kk11kk22kk33//((&lambda;&lambda;22&lambda;&lambda;33))33------((88))..

根据所述变量RA、RB及新变量RD,定义新的血管区域函数为下式(9):According to the variablesRA ,RB and the new variableRD , the new blood vessel area function is defined as the following formula (9):

CC((&lambda;&lambda;))==&lsqb;&lsqb;11--expexp((--RRAA2222aa22))&rsqb;&rsqb;&lsqb;&lsqb;11--expexp((--RRDD.2222dd22))&rsqb;&rsqb;&lsqb;&lsqb;11--expexp((--SS2222cc22))&rsqb;&rsqb;,,iiff&lambda;&lambda;22,,&lambda;&lambda;33<<0000,,eellsthe see------((99));;

其中,a、c以及d分别为平面结构参数、背景区分参数以及三维血管结构参数,根据经验以及所选尺度选取。Wherein, a, c, and d are planar structure parameters, background discrimination parameters, and three-dimensional blood vessel structure parameters, selected according to experience and selected scales.

若当前处理图像为分叉区域,k1、k2及k3中只要任意一个值较小,则变量RD的值较大;若当前处理图像为血管弧度较大的区域,k2及k3与λ2及λ3大小相当,k1的值相对较小,则变量RD的值较大;若当前处理图像为典型的直血管区域,k1≈0,变量RD的值依然较大;因此新变量RD适用多种血管区域,不会对其他特征项产生干扰。If the current processing image is a bifurcation area, as long as any value of k1 , k2 and k3 is small, the value of the variable RD is large; if the current processing image is a region with a large vascular arc, k2 and k3 is equivalent to λ2 and λ3 , the value of k1 is relatively small, and the value of variableRD is relatively large; if the current processing image is a typical straight blood vessel area, k1 ≈ 0, the value of variableRD is still relatively small. Large; therefore, the new variable RD is applicable to a variety of vascular regions and will not interfere with other feature items.

步骤S23、确定需要增强的血管区域:根据所述血管区域特征函数确定需要增强的血管区域,进而对所述三维精细血管原始图像进行增强,得到三维精细血管增强图像。所述三维精细血管增强图像包括增强后的待修复图像1和增强后的参考图像3。Step S23 , determining the vessel region to be enhanced: determining the vessel region to be enhanced according to the characteristic function of the vessel region, and then enhancing the original 3D fine blood vessel image to obtain a 3D fine blood vessel enhanced image. The three-dimensional fine blood vessel enhanced image includes an enhanced image to be repaired 1 and an enhanced reference image 3 .

所述最优匹配块52为整体匹配度最高的所述候选块。所述最优匹配块52通过映射位置关系获得与所述待修复区域10相对应的填充区域50。The optimal matching block 52 is the candidate block with the highest overall matching degree. The optimal matching block 52 obtains the filling area 50 corresponding to the area to be repaired 10 by mapping the positional relationship.

请参阅图10,为图2所示三维精细血管重建方法中步骤S4的流程图。所述图像填充及边界处理步骤S4包括:Please refer to FIG. 10 , which is a flowchart of step S4 in the three-dimensional fine vessel reconstruction method shown in FIG. 2 . The image filling and boundary processing step S4 includes:

步骤S41、将所述最优匹配块52的填充区域50对应填充至所述待修复块12的待修复区域10;Step S41, correspondingly fill the filling area 50 of the optimal matching block 52 into the area 10 to be repaired of the block 12 to be repaired;

步骤S42、将所述填充区域50的边界进行插值迭代,不断逼近直至收敛,将所述填充区域50、以及所述待修复区域10的边界平滑过渡,完成修复重建。Step S42 , interpolating and iterating the boundary of the filling area 50 until it converges, making a smooth transition between the filling area 50 and the boundary of the area to be repaired 10 , and completing the restoration and reconstruction.

具体过程为:The specific process is:

将所述填充区域50填充到所述待修复区域10,所述填充区域50覆盖所述待修复区域10完成所述缺失部位的修复。The filling area 50 is filled into the area to be repaired 10 , and the filling area 50 covers the area to be repaired 10 to complete the repair of the missing part.

采用“逼近”的思想将所述待修复区域10的边界与所述填充区域50的像素灰度平滑过渡,弱化其之间拼缝的边缘。对所述待修复块12与所述最优匹配块52的限定范围分别建立矢量场,在矢量场的引导下来进行插值迭代。The idea of "approximation" is adopted to make a smooth transition between the boundary of the region to be repaired 10 and the pixel grayscale of the filling region 50, and weaken the edge of the patchwork between them. Vector fields are respectively established for the limited ranges of the block to be repaired 12 and the optimal matching block 52 , and interpolation iterations are performed under the guidance of the vector fields.

设点p(x,y,z)是所述待修复块12中一点,其6个邻域点的集合为N6,定义其6个邻域方向的差分矢量集合为6个邻域方向上的单位矢量分别为根据差分的定义得到Let point p(x, y, z) be a point in the block to be repaired 12, the set of its 6 neighborhood points is N6 , and the set of difference vectors defining its 6 neighborhood directions is The unit vectors in the six neighborhood directions are According to the definition of difference

对所述待修复块12中每个像素点都进行上述操作,得到所述待修复块12中所有像素点所对应集合所有得到的矢量组成了所述待修复块12的矢量场D1,进行数据迭代,最终得到像素集合P。Perform the above operations on each pixel in the block to be repaired 12 to obtain a set corresponding to all pixels in the block to be repaired 12 All obtained vectors constitute the vector field D1 of the block to be repaired 12 , and data iteration is performed to finally obtain a pixel set P.

相同方法构造所述最优匹配块52的矢量场D5,进行数据迭代,最终得到像素集合Q。In the same way, the vector field D5 of the optimal matching block 52 is constructed, data iteration is performed, and the pixel set Q is finally obtained.

为了使所述像素集合P逼近所述最像素集合Q,该问题等价于下式(15)的最小值问题:In order to make the pixel set P approach the most pixel set Q, this problem is equivalent to the minimum value problem of the following formula (15):

&Integral;&Integral;&Integral;&Integral;&Integral;&Integral;DD.11||&Delta;&Delta;pp((xx,,ythe y,,zz))--DD.11||ddxxddythe yddzz------((1515));;

其中,Δ是某像素点六邻域方向上的差分算子,D1是所述待修复块12的矢量场。根据Euler-Lagrange方程,上述问题等价于下式(16):Wherein, Δ is a difference operator in the six-neighborhood direction of a certain pixel point, and D1 is the vector field of the block 12 to be repaired. According to the Euler-Lagrange equation, the above problem is equivalent to the following formula (16):

Δp=D1,p∈D1 (16);Δp=D1 , p∈D1 (16);

其意义为以矢量场为参照来实现像素的无限逼近。下面采用超松弛迭代法,通过邻域像素消元来实现。Its meaning is to realize the infinite approximation of pixels with the vector field as a reference. Next, the super-relaxation iterative method is used to realize it through neighborhood pixel elimination.

设初始化图像像素函数值为p0=p(x,y,z),(x,y,z)∈D1,迭代的过程为下式(17):Assuming that the initial image pixel function value is p0 =p(x,y,z),(x,y,z)∈D1 , the iterative process is the following formula (17):

pptt++11((xx,,ythe y,,zz))==pptt((xx,,ythe y,,zz))++1166&times;&times;&lsqb;&lsqb;&Delta;p&Delta;ptt((xx,,ythe y,,zz))--DD.11&rsqb;&rsqb;------((1717));;

其中,Δpt(x,y,z)如下式(18):Among them, Δpt (x, y, z) is as follows (18):

Δpt(x,y,z)=pt(x+1,y,z)+pt(x-1,y,z)+pt(x,y+1,z)+pt(x,y-1,z)+pt(x,y,z+1)+pt(x,y,z-1)-6×pt(x,y,z) (18);Δpt (x, y, z) = pt (x+1, y, z) + pt (x-1, y, z) + pt (x, y+1, z) + pt (x ,y-1,z)+pt (x,y,z+1)+pt (x,y,z-1)-6×pt (x,y,z) (18);

每一次迭代,都会更新所述待修复块12的像素值,使之在矢量场引导下逐渐逼近所述最优匹配块52内相应位置的像素值,直到收敛即可实现灰度协调过渡的效果。Each iteration, the pixel value of the block to be repaired 12 will be updated, so that it will gradually approach the pixel value of the corresponding position in the optimal matching block 52 under the guidance of the vector field, until the convergence can achieve the effect of gray scale coordination transition .
