Delineation of the left ventricular cavity, myocardium, and right ventricle from cardiac magnetic resonance images (multi-slice 2-D cine MRI) is a common clinical task to establish diagnosis. The automation of the corresponding tasks has thus been the subject of intense research over the past decades. In this paper, we introduce the “Automatic Cardiac Diagnosis Challenge” dataset (ACDC), the largest publicly available and fully annotated dataset for the purpose of cardiac MRI (CMR) assessment. The dataset contains data from 150 multi-equipments CMRI recordings with reference measurements and classification from two medical experts. The overarching objective of this paper is to measure how far state-of-the-art deep learning methods can go at assessing CMRI, i.e., segmenting the myocardium and the two ventricles as well as classifying pathologies. In the wake of the 2017 MICCAI-ACDC challenge, we report results from deep learning methods provided by nine research groups for the segmentation task and four groups for the classification task. Results show that the best methods faithfully reproduce the expert analysis, leading to a mean value of 0.97 correlation score for the automatic extraction of clinical indices and an accuracy of 0.96 for automatic diagnosis. These results clearly open the door to highly accurate and fully automatic analysis of cardiac CMRI. We also identify scenarios for which deep learning methods are still failing. Both the dataset and detailed results are publicly available online, while the platform will remain open for new submissions.

Characteristic analysis of Otsu threshold and its applications

Early detection of lung cancer is an effective way to improve the survival rate of patients. It is a critical step to have accurate detection of lung nodules in computed tomography (CT) images for the diagnosis of lung cancer. However, due to the heterogeneity of the lung nodules and the complexity of the surrounding environment, it is a challenge to develop a robust nodule detection method. In this study, we propose a two-stage convolutional neural networks (TSCNN) for lung nodule detection. The first stage based on the improved U-Net segmentation network is to establish an initial detection of lung nodules. During this stage, in order to obtain a high recall rate without introducing excessive false positive nodules, we propose a new sampling strategy for training. Simultaneously, a two-phase prediction method is also proposed in this stage. The second stage in the TSCNN architecture based on the proposed dual pooling structure is built into three 3D-CNN classification networks for false positive reduction. Since the network training requires a significant amount of training data, we designed a random mask as the data augmentation method in this study. Furthermore, we have improved the generalization ability of the false positive reduction model by means of ensemble learning. We verified the proposed architecture on the LUNA dataset in our experiments, which showed that the proposed TSCNN architecture did obtain competitive detection performance.
