A novel semi-supervised multimodal segmentation framework is proposed for medical image segmentation, aiming to enhance performance by leveraging complementary information from different modalities while being robust to limited annotated data and anatomical misalignments. The framework employs a cross-modality collaboration strategy to distill modality-independent knowledge and integrate it into a unified fusion layer for feature amalgamation, along with channel-wise semantic consistency loss and contrastive consistent learning to regulate anatomical structures. This approach achieves competitive performance across three tasks: cardiac, abdominal multi-organ, and thyroid-associated orbitopathy segmentations, while demonstrating robustness in scenarios involving scarce labeled data and misaligned modalities.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
This paper develops a new way to combine information from different types of medical images to better identify different parts of the body. It’s hard for computers to do this because the different images are not perfectly aligned, but the new method helps them work together more effectively. The approach is tested on three different tasks and performs well even when there’s not much labeled data available. This could be useful in hospitals where they don’t have a lot of data to train their systems.
