Mixture-of-experts and semantic-guided network for brain tumor segmentation with missing MRI modalities.

Accurate brain tumor segmentation with multi-modal MRI images is crucial, but missing modalities in clinical practice often reduce accuracy. The aim of this study is to propose a mixture-of-experts and semantic-guided network to tackle the issue of missing modalities in brain tumor segmentation. We introduce a transformer-based encoder with novel mixture-of-experts blocks. In each block, four modality experts aim for modality-specific feature learning. Learnable modality embeddings are employed to alleviate the negative effect of missing modalities. We also introduce a decoder guided by semantic information, designed to pay higher attention to various tumor regions. Finally, we conduct extensive comparison experiments with other models as well as ablation experiments to validate the performance of the proposed model on the BraTS2018 dataset. The proposed model can accurately segment brain tumor sub-regions even with missing modalities. It achieves an average Dice score of 0.81 for the whole tumor, 0.66 for the tumor core, and 0.52 for the enhanced tumor across the 15 modality combinations, achieving top or near-top results in most cases, while also exhibiting a lower computational cost. Our mixture-of-experts and sematic-guided network achieves accurate and reliable brain tumor segmentation results with missing modalities, indicating its significant potential for clinical applications.

Scalable Swin Transformer network for brain tumor segmentation from incomplete MRI modalities

Background:Deep learning methods have shown great potential in processing multi-modal Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) data, enabling improved accuracy in brain tumor segmentation. However, the performance of these methods can suffer when dealing with incomplete modalities, which is a common issue in clinical practice. Existing solutions, such as missing modality synthesis, knowledge distillation, and architecture-based methods, suffer from drawbacks such as long training times, high model complexity, and poor scalability. Method:This paper proposes IMS2Trans, a novel lightweight scalable Swin Transformer network by utilizing a single encoder to extract latent feature maps from all available modalities. This unified feature extraction process enables efficient information sharing and fusion among the modalities, resulting in efficiency without compromising segmentation performance even in the presence of missing modalities. Results:Two datasets, BraTS 2018 and BraTS 2020, containing incomplete modalities for brain tumor segmentation are evaluated against popular benchmarks. On the BraTS 2018 dataset, our model achieved higher average Dice similarity coefficient (DSC) scores for the whole tumor, tumor core, and enhancing tumor regions (86.57, 75.67, and 58.28, respectively), in comparison with a state-of-the-art model, i.e. mmFormer (86.45, 75.51, and 57.79, respectively). Similarly, on the BraTS 2020 dataset, our model scored higher DSC scores in these three brain tumor regions (87.33, 79.09, and 62.11, respectively) compared to mmFormer (86.17, 78.34, and 60.36, respectively). We also conducted a Wilcoxon test on the experimental results, and the generated p-value confirmed that our model’s performance was statistically significant. Moreover, our model exhibits significantly reduced complexity with only 4.47 M parameters, 121.89G FLOPs, and a model size of 77.13 MB, whereas mmFormer comprises 34.96 M parameters, 265.79 G FLOPs, and a model size of 559.74 MB. These indicate our model, being light-weighted with significantly reduced parameters, is still able to achieve better performance than a state-of-the-art model. Conclusion:By leveraging a single encoder for processing the available modalities, IMS2Trans offers notable scalability advantages over methods that rely on multiple encoders. This streamlined approach eliminates the need for maintaining separate encoders for each modality, resulting in a lightweight and scalable network architecture. The source code of IMS2Trans and the associated weights are both publicly available at https://github.com/hudscomdz/IMS2Trans.

LightNet: a novel lightweight convolutional network for brain tumor segmentation in healthcare.

Diagnosis, treatment planning, surveillance, and the monitoring of clinical trials for brain diseases all benefit greatly from neuroimaging-based tumor segmentation. Recently, Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) have demonstrated promising results in enhancing the efficiency of image-based brain tumor segmentation. Most current work on CNNs, however, is devoted to creating increasingly complicated convolution modules to improve performance, which in turn raises the computing cost of the model. This work proposes a simple and effective feed-forward CNN, LightNet (Light Network). Based on multi-path and multi-level, it replaces traditional convolutional methods with light operations, which reduces network parameters and redundant feature maps. In the up-sampling stage, a light channel attention module is added to achieve richer multi-scale and spatial semantic feature information extraction of brain tumor. The performance of the network is evaluated in the Multimodal Brain Tumor Segmentation Challenge (BraTS 2015) dataset, and results are presented here alongside other high-performing CNNs. Results show comparable accuracy with other methods but with increased efficiency, segmentation performance, and reduced redundancy and computational complexity. The result is a high-performing network with a balance between efficiency and accuracy, allowing, for example, better energy performance on mobile devices.

An attention 3DUNET and visual geometry group-19 based deep neural network for brain tumor segmentation and classification from MRI

There has been an abrupt increase in brain tumor (BT) related medical cases during the past ten years. The tenth most typical type of tumor affecting millions of people is the BT. The cure rate can, however, rise if it is found early. When evaluating BT diagnosis and treatment options, MRI is a crucial tool. However, segmenting the tumors from magnetic resonance (MR) images is complex. The advancement of deep learning (DL) has led to the development of numerous automatic segmentation and classification approaches. However, most need improvement since they are limited to 2D images. So, this article proposes a novel and optimal DL system for segmenting and classifying the BTs from 3D brain MR images. Preprocessing, segmentation, feature extraction, feature selection, and tumor classification are the main phases of the proposed work. Preprocessing, such as noise removal, is performed on the collected brain MR images using bilateral filtering. The tumor segmentation uses spatial and channel attention-based three-dimensional u-shaped network (SC3DUNet) to segment the tumor lesions from the preprocessed data. After that, the feature extraction is done based on dilated convolution-based visual geometry group-19 (DCVGG-19), making the classification task more manageable. The optimal features are selected from the extracted feature sets using diagonal linear uniform and tangent flight included butterfly optimization algorithm. Finally, the proposed system applies an optimal hyperparameters-based deep neural network to classify the tumor classes. The experiments conducted on the BraTS2020 dataset show that the suggested method can segment tumors and categorize them more accurately than the existing state-of-the-art mechanisms.

Brain tumor image segmentation based on improved FPN

PurposeAutomatic segmentation of brain tumors by deep learning algorithm is one of the research hotspots in the field of medical image segmentation. An improved FPN network for brain tumor segmentation is proposed to improve the segmentation effect of brain tumor.Materials and methodsAiming at the problem that the traditional full convolutional neural network (FCN) has weak processing ability, which leads to the loss of details in tumor segmentation, this paper proposes a brain tumor image segmentation method based on the improved feature pyramid networks (FPN) convolutional neural network. In order to improve the segmentation effect of brain tumors, we improved the model, introduced the FPN structure into the U-Net structure, captured the context multi-scale information by using the different scale information in the U-Net model and the multi receptive field high-level features in the FPN convolutional neural network, and improved the adaptability of the model to different scale features.ResultsPerformance evaluation indicators show that the proposed improved FPN model has 99.1% accuracy, 92% DICE rating and 86% Jaccard index. The performance of the proposed method outperforms other segmentation models in each metric. In addition, the schematic diagram of the segmentation results shows that the segmentation results of our algorithm are closer to the ground truth, showing more brain tumour details, while the segmentation results of other algorithms are smoother.ConclusionsThe experimental results show that this method can effectively segment brain tumor regions and has certain generalization, and the segmentation effect is better than other networks. It has positive significance for clinical diagnosis of brain tumors.

Systematic survey on generative adversarial networks for brain tumor segmentation and classification

SummaryBrain cancer is one of the leading diseases of death in the world caused due to unwanted proliferation of cells. If left untreated, this growth can spread into other human body parts. So early detection helps to enhance long‐term survival and reduce the mortality rate. A lot of research has been done in the field of brain tumors. There have been numerous previous studies conducted using traditional approaches. So far, few review studies are available on brain tumor segmentation and classification and moreover, they were quite limited in explaining the connections of Generative Adversarial Networks (GAN) for brain tumor segmentation and classification. This review mainly focuses on the GAN architectures for brain tumor segmentation and classification. Therefore, first, an overview of brain tumors, GAN‐based publications, approaches to brain tumor segmentation and classification, data sets, software platforms, and performance parameters, are presented. Finally, GAN applications and current trends are discussed. This thorough survey will aid researchers and beginners in the future in creating a better decision support system.

A single stage knowledge distillation network for brain tumor segmentation on limited MR image modalities

Background and objectivePrecisely segmenting brain tumors using multimodal Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is an essential task for early diagnosis, disease monitoring, and surgical planning. Unfortunately, the complete four image modalities utilized in the well-known BraTS benchmark dataset: T1, T2, Fluid-Attenuated Inversion Recovery (FLAIR), and T1 Contrast-Enhanced (T1CE) are not regularly acquired in clinical practice due to the high cost and long acquisition time. Rather, it is common to utilize limited image modalities for brain tumor segmentation. MethodsIn this paper, we propose a single stage learning of knowledge distillation algorithm that derives information from the missing modalities for better segmentation of brain tumors. Unlike the previous works that adopted a two-stage framework to distill the knowledge from a pre-trained network into a student network, where the latter network is trained on limited image modality, we train both models simultaneously using a single-stage knowledge distillation algorithm. We transfer the information by reducing the redundancy from a teacher network trained on full image modalities to the student network using Barlow Twins loss on a latent-space level. To distill the knowledge on the pixel level, we further employ a deep supervision idea that trains the backbone networks of both teacher and student paths using Cross-Entropy loss. ResultsWe demonstrate that the proposed single-stage knowledge distillation approach enables improving the performance of the student network in each tumor category with overall dice scores of 91.11% for Tumor Core, 89.70% for Enhancing Tumor, and 92.20% for Whole Tumor in the case of only using the FLAIR and T1CE images, outperforming the state-of-the-art segmentation methods. ConclusionsThe outcomes of this work prove the feasibility of exploiting the knowledge distillation in segmenting brain tumors using limited image modalities and hence make it closer to clinical practices.

MimicNet: Mimicking manual delineation of human expert for brain tumor segmentation from multimodal MRIs

Existing deep neural networks for brain tumor segmentation from multimodal MRIs rely predominantly on standard segmentation architectures, overlooking the underlying rules in clinical scenarios. To address this gap, we propose a novel deep multimodal network that architecturally mimics these rules and fully replicates the process of manually annotating brain tumors by human experts in machines. Three significant manual annotation rules are mimicked. The three sub-tasks are introduced first to segment three regions sequentially. We incorporate a fine-grained modality attention module in each sub-task to mimic region-aware multimodal fusion. Finally, we propose the deep feature propagation module for multi-scale context exploitation and repurpose deep cascaded attention for location information exploitation. These exploits imitate earlier segmentation knowledge exploitation. We use a new curriculum loss to train the nested network and a stratified training approach to reduce the intramodality domain shift caused by the dataset’s distribution. The proposed approach is evaluated and compared to state-of-the-art methods on three public datasets: BraTS2018, BraTS2019 and BraTS2020. The Dice similarity coefficient on Brats2020 is 0.800,0.930 and 0.857 for enhancing tumor, whole tumor, and tumor core, respectively, ranking sixth top among 285 participating methods. These findings suggest the potential applicability of our approach in brain tumor segmentation from multimodal MRIs.

Brain Tumor Segmentation Network with Multi-View Ensemble Discrimination and Kernel-Sharing Dilated Convolution

Accurate segmentation of brain tumors from magnetic resonance 3D images (MRI) is critical for clinical decisions and surgical planning. Radiologists usually separate and analyze brain tumors by combining images of axial, coronal, and sagittal views. However, traditional convolutional neural network (CNN) models tend to use information from only a single view or one by one. Moreover, the existing models adopt a multi-branch structure with different-size convolution kernels in parallel to adapt to various tumor sizes. However, the difference in the convolution kernels' parameters cannot precisely characterize the feature similarity of tumor lesion regions with various sizes, connectivity, and convexity. To address the above problems, we propose a hierarchical multi-view convolution method that decouples the standard 3D convolution into axial, coronal, and sagittal views to provide complementary-view features. Then, every pixel is classified by ensembling the discriminant results from the three views. Moreover, we propose a multi-branch kernel-sharing mechanism with a dilated rate to obtain parameter-consistent convolution kernels with different receptive fields. We use the BraTS2018 and BraTS2020 datasets for comparison experiments. The average Dice coefficients of the proposed network on the BraTS2020 dataset can reach 78.16%, 89.52%, and 83.05% for the enhancing tumor (ET), whole tumor (WT), and tumor core (TC), respectively, while the number of parameters is only 0.5 M. Compared with the baseline network for brain tumor segmentation, the accuracy was improved by 1.74%, 0.5%, and 2.19%, respectively.

Two-Branch network for brain tumor segmentation using attention mechanism and super-resolution reconstruction

Accurate segmentation of brain tumor plays an important role in MRI diagnosis and treatment monitoring of brain tumor. However, the degree of lesions in each patient’s brain tumor region is usually inconsistent, with large structural differences, and brain tumor MR images are characterized by low contrast and blur, current deep learning algorithms often cannot achieve accurate segmentation. To address this problem, we propose a novel end-to-end brain tumor segmentation algorithm by integrating the improved 3D U-Net network and super-resolution image reconstruction into one framework. In addition, the coordinate attention module is embedded before the upsampling operation of the backbone network, which enhances the capture ability of local texture feature information and global location feature information. To demonstrate the segmentation results of the proposed algorithm in different brain tumor MR images, we have trained and evaluated the proposed algorithm on BraTS datasets, and compared with other deep learning algorithms by dice similarity scores. On the BraTS2021 dataset, the proposed algorithm achieves the dice similarity score of 89.61%, 88.30%, 91.05%, and the Hausdorff distance (95%) of 1.414 mm, 7.810 mm, 4.583 mm for the enhancing tumors, tumor cores and whole tumors, respectively. The experimental results illuminate that our method outperforms the baseline 3D U-Net method and yields good performance on different datasets. It indicated that it is robust to segmentation of brain tumor MR images with structures vary considerably.

Selective Deeply Supervised Multi-Scale Attention Network for Brain Tumor Segmentation.

Brain tumors are among the deadliest forms of cancer, characterized by abnormal proliferation of brain cells. While early identification of brain tumors can greatly aid in their therapy, the process of manual segmentation performed by expert doctors, which is often time-consuming, tedious, and prone to human error, can act as a bottleneck in the diagnostic process. This motivates the development of automated algorithms for brain tumor segmentation. However, accurately segmenting the enhanced and core tumor regions is complicated due to high levels of inter- and intra-tumor heterogeneity in terms of texture, morphology, and shape. This study proposes a fully automatic method called the selective deeply supervised multi-scale attention network (SDS-MSA-Net) for segmenting brain tumor regions using a multi-scale attention network with novel selective deep supervision (SDS) mechanisms for training. The method utilizes a 3D input composed of five consecutive slices, in addition to a 2D slice, to maintain sequential information. The proposed multi-scale architecture includes two encoding units to extract meaningful global and local features from the 3D and 2D inputs, respectively. These coarse features are then passed through attention units to filter out redundant information by assigning lower weights. The refined features are fed into a decoder block, which upscales the features at various levels while learning patterns relevant to all tumor regions. The SDS block is introduced to immediately upscale features from intermediate layers of the decoder, with the aim of producing segmentations of the whole, enhanced, and core tumor regions. The proposed framework was evaluated on the BraTS2020 dataset and showed improved performance in brain tumor region segmentation, particularly in the segmentation of the core and enhancing tumor regions, demonstrating the effectiveness of the proposed approach. Our code is publicly available.

A lightweight hierarchical convolution network for brain tumor segmentation

BackgroundBrain tumor segmentation plays a significant role in clinical treatment and surgical planning. Recently, several deep convolutional networks have been proposed for brain tumor segmentation and have achieved impressive performance. However, most state-of-the-art models use 3D convolution networks, which require high computational costs. This makes it difficult to apply these models to medical equipment in the future. Additionally, due to the large diversity of the brain tumor and uncertain boundaries between sub-regions, some models cannot well-segment multiple tumors in the brain at the same time.ResultsIn this paper, we proposed a lightweight hierarchical convolution network, called LHC-Net. Our network uses a multi-scale strategy which the common 3D convolution is replaced by the hierarchical convolution with residual-like connections. It improves the ability of multi-scale feature extraction and greatly reduces parameters and computation resources. On the BraTS2020 dataset, LHC-Net achieves the Dice scores of 76.38%, 90.01% and 83.32% for ET, WT and TC, respectively, which is better than that of 3D U-Net with 73.50%, 89.42% and 81.92%. Especially on the multi-tumor set, our model shows significant performance improvement. In addition, LHC-Net has 1.65M parameters and 35.58G FLOPs, which is two times fewer parameters and three times less computation compared with 3D U-Net.ConclusionOur proposed method achieves automatic segmentation of tumor sub-regions from four-modal brain MRI images. LHC-Net achieves competitive segmentation performance with fewer parameters and less computation than the state-of-the-art models. It means that our model can be applied under limited medical computing resources. By using the multi-scale strategy on channels, LHC-Net can well-segment multiple tumors in the patient’s brain. It has great potential for application to other multi-scale segmentation tasks.

TAYLOR-IIWO: TAYLOR IMPROVED INVASIVE WEED OPTIMIZATION-ENABLED DEEP QUANTUM NEURAL NETWORK FOR BRAIN TUMOR SEGMENTATION AND CLASSIFICATION

The brain tumor classification acts as a fundamental part in the medical areas for diagnosing the brain tumors accurately. The early identification of the brain tumor helps in saving the life of the patients by offering appropriate treatment. This paper devises an approach for the classification of brain tumor using a novel Taylor Improved Invasive Weed Optimization-enabled Deep Quantum Neural Network (Taylor-IIWO-enabled Deep QNN). The pre-processing is the first phase in which the input images are pre-processed, and then the U-Net model is utilized for tumor segmentation. In addition, the extraction of features, such as statistical, Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT), and shape features, is done in the feature extraction phase. Then, the brain tumor is classified using the Deep QNN classifier, in which the training process is achieved using the devised Taylor-IIWO. The Taylor series and the IIWO are integrated to obtain the developed Taylor-IIWO. In addition, the developed Taylor-IIWO-based Deep QNN has higher accuracy of 0.964, higher sensitivity of 0.967, and higher specificity of 0.983.

A transformer-based generative adversarial network for brain tumor segmentation.

Brain tumor segmentation remains a challenge in medical image segmentation tasks. With the application of transformer in various computer vision tasks, transformer blocks show the capability of learning long-distance dependency in global space, which is complementary to CNNs. In this paper, we proposed a novel transformer-based generative adversarial network to automatically segment brain tumors with multi-modalities MRI. Our architecture consists of a generator and a discriminator, which is trained in min-max game progress. The generator is based on a typical "U-shaped" encoder-decoder architecture, whose bottom layer is composed of transformer blocks with Resnet. Besides, the generator is trained with deep supervision technology. The discriminator we designed is a CNN-based network with multi-scale L 1 loss, which is proved to be effective for medical semantic image segmentation. To validate the effectiveness of our method, we conducted exclusive experiments on BRATS2015 dataset, achieving comparable or better performance than previous state-of-the-art methods. On additional datasets, including BRATS2018 and BRATS2020, experimental results prove that our technique is capable of generalizing successfully.

Qutrit-Inspired Fully Self-Supervised Shallow Quantum Learning Network for Brain Tumor Segmentation.

Classical self-supervised networks suffer from convergence problems and reduced segmentation accuracy due to forceful termination. Qubits or bilevel quantum bits often describe quantum neural network models. In this article, a novel self-supervised shallow learning network model exploiting the sophisticated three-level qutrit-inspired quantum information system, referred to as quantum fully self-supervised neural network (QFS-Net), is presented for automated segmentation of brain magnetic resonance (MR) images. The QFS-Net model comprises a trinity of a layered structure of qutrits interconnected through parametric Hadamard gates using an eight-connected second-order neighborhood-based topology. The nonlinear transformation of the qutrit states allows the underlying quantum neural network model to encode the quantum states, thereby enabling a faster self-organized counterpropagation of these states between the layers without supervision. The suggested QFS-Net model is tailored and extensively validated on the Cancer Imaging Archive (TCIA) dataset collected from the Nature repository. The experimental results are also compared with state-of-the-art supervised (U-Net and URes-Net architectures) and the self-supervised QIS-Net model and its classical counterpart. Results shed promising segmented outcomes in detecting tumors in terms of dice similarity and accuracy with minimum human intervention and computational resources. The proposed QFS-Net is also investigated on natural gray-scale images from the Berkeley segmentation dataset and yields promising outcomes in segmentation, thereby demonstrating the robustness of the QFS-Net model.

Self-Supervised Multi-Modal Hybrid Fusion Network for Brain Tumor Segmentation

Accurate medical image segmentation of brain tumors is necessary for the diagnosing, monitoring, and treating disease. In recent years, with the gradual emergence of multi-sequence magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), multi-modal MRI diagnosis has played an increasingly important role in the early diagnosis of brain tumors by providing complementary information for a given lesion. Different MRI modalities vary significantly in context, as well as in coarse and fine information. As the manual identification of brain tumors is very complicated, it usually requires the lengthy consultation of multiple experts. The automatic segmentation of brain tumors from MRI images can thus greatly reduce the workload of doctors and buy more time for treating patients. In this paper, we propose a multi-modal brain tumor segmentation framework that adopts the hybrid fusion of modality-specific features using a self-supervised learning strategy. The algorithm is based on a fully convolutional neural network. Firstly, we propose a multi-input architecture that learns independent features from multi-modal data, and can be adapted to different numbers of multi-modal inputs. Compared with single-modal multi-channel networks, our model provides a better feature extractor for segmentation tasks, which learns cross-modal information from multi-modal data. Secondly, we propose a new feature fusion scheme, named hybrid attentional fusion. This scheme enables the network to learn the hybrid representation of multiple features and capture the correlation information between them through an attention mechanism. Unlike popular methods, such as feature map concatenation, this scheme focuses on the complementarity between multi-modal data, which can significantly improve the segmentation results of specific regions. Thirdly, we propose a self-supervised learning strategy for brain tumor segmentation tasks. Our experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed model against other state-of-the-art multi-modal medical segmentation methods.

Evolutionary convolutional neural network for efficient brain tumor segmentation and overall survival prediction

The most common and aggressive malignant brain tumor in adults is glioma, which leads to short life expectancy. A reliable and efficient automatic segmentation method is beneficial for clinical practice. Deep neural networks have achieved great success in brain tumor segmentation recently. However, their computational complexity and storage costs hinder their deployment in real-time applications or on resource-constrained devices in clinics. Network pruning, which has attracted many researchers recently, alleviates this limitation by removing trivial parameters of the network. Network pruning is challenging in the medical field because pruning should not degrade the performance of models. As a result, it is vital to choose unimportant parts of networks correctly. In this paper, we employ the genetic algorithm to identify redundant filters of our U-Net-based network. We consider filter pruning a multiobjective optimization problem in which performance and inference time are optimized simultaneously. Then, we use our compressed network for brain tumor segmentation. Predicted segmentation masks are often used to predict patients' survival time. Although several studies have recently achieved good results, they require different feature engineering techniques to extract suitable features, which is difficult and time-consuming. To tackle this problem, we easily extract deep features from the endpoint of the encoder of our compact network and use them for survival prediction. Regarding the popularity of U-Net-based models for brain tumor segmentation, many researchers can employ our technique to predict the survival time without spending lots of time on feature engineering. The experimental results on the BraTS 2018 dataset demonstrate that filter pruning is a reliable technique to reduce the storage cost and accelerate the network during inference while maintaining performance. Furthermore, our survival time prediction technique achieves high efficiency compared to state-of-the-art methods. Preprocessed data, the full implementation of the project, and the trained networks are available at https://github.com/Fbehrad/Evo_conv.

Region Convolutional Neural Network for Brain Tumor Segmentation.

Gliomas are often difficult to find and distinguish using typical manual segmentation approaches because of their vast range of changes in size, shape, and appearance. Furthermore, the manual annotation of cancer tissue segmentation under the close supervision of a human professional is both time-consuming and exhausting to perform. It will be easier and faster in the future to get accurate and quick diagnoses and treatments thanks to automated segmentation and survival rate prediction models that can be used now. In this article, a segmentation model is designed using RCNN that enables automatic prognosis on brain tumors using MRI. The study adopts a U-Net encoder for capturing the features during the training of the model. The feature extraction extracts geometric features for the estimation of tumor size. It is seen that the shape, location, and size of a tumor are significant factors in the estimation of prognosis. The experimental methods are conducted to test the efficacy of the model, and the results of the simulation show that the proposed method achieves a reduced error rate with increased accuracy than other methods.
