5.3 分类和检测

"医学图像分类和检测正在从计算机辅助检测(CADe)向计算机辅助诊断(CADx)发展,并逐渐成为临床医生的重要助手。" —— AI医学影像发展趋势

在之前的章节中,我们详细学习了预处理技术和基于U-Net的分割方法。现在,我们进入医学图像分析的另一个重要领域:分类和检测。与分割的像素级精度要求不同,分类和检测更关注准确地识别疾病和定位病灶。

医学图像分类和检测面临着独特的挑战:极端的类别不平衡(正负样本比例可达1:1000)、微小的病灶尺寸、图像质量变化,以及对高精度和高召回率的要求。在本节中,我们将探讨如何使用深度学习技术来解决这些问题。


🔍 分类检测核心概念对比

基础任务定义

图像分类

图像分类确定图像是否包含特定的疾病或异常:

  • 二分类:正常 vs 异常
  • 多类分类:特定疾病类型识别
  • 多标签分类:一张图像可能包含多种疾病

目标检测

目标检测不仅识别疾病,还确定其位置:

  • 边界框检测:框出病灶区域
  • 病灶定位:提供精确坐标
  • 多病灶检测:同时检测多个病灶
任务类型输入输出临床应用难度等级
分类完整医学图像疾病标签/类别初筛、分诊⭐⭐
检测完整医学图像边界框 + 类别病灶定位、手术规划⭐⭐⭐
分割完整医学图像像素级掩码精确测量、3D重建⭐⭐⭐⭐

医学特殊性

类别不平衡问题

医学图像分类面临的核心挑战之一是极端的类别不平衡,这种现象在医学诊断中尤为突出:

🔍 不平衡的根本原因:

  1. 疾病流行率差异:正常人群远超患者群体

    • 健康体检:95%以上为正常样本
    • 疾病筛查:罕见病检出率可能低于0.1%
    • 早期诊断:病灶在图像中占比极小
  2. 数据采集偏差

    • 医院倾向于收集更多阳性病例用于研究
    • 体检中心产生大量正常样本
    • 不同科室的病例分布差异巨大
  3. 标注成本考虑

    • 阳性样本需要专家详细标注
    • 阴性样本相对容易批量标注
    • 模糊病例往往被排除在训练集外

⚠️ 不平衡的严重影响:

问题类型传统模型表现临床后果解决思路
预测偏差倾向预测多数类漏诊高风险疾病加权损失、重采样
决策阈值固定0.5阈值不适用灵敏度/特异性失衡动态阈值优化
特征学习忽略少数类特征无法识别病灶特征困难样本挖掘
评估误导高准确率但无临床价值模型部署风险医学专用指标

📊 实际案例分析:

python
def analyze_class_imbalance(dataset):
    """
    分析医学数据集中的类别不平衡
    """
    class_counts = {}
    for label in dataset.labels:
        class_counts[label] = class_counts.get(label, 0) + 1

    total_samples = len(dataset)
    imbalance_ratios = {}

    for class_name, count in class_counts.items():
        ratio = count / total_samples
        imbalance_ratios[class_name] = {
            'count': count,
            'percentage': ratio * 100,
            'imbalance_factor': max(class_counts.values()) / count
        }

    return imbalance_ratios

# 示例输出
# {
#     'normal': {'count': 9500, 'percentage': 95.0, 'imbalance_factor': 1.0},
#     'pneumonia': {'count': 300, 'percentage': 3.0, 'imbalance_factor': 31.7},
#     'tuberculosis': {'count': 150, 'percentage': 1.5, 'imbalance_factor': 63.3},
#     'cancer': {'count': 50, 'percentage': 0.5, 'imbalance_factor': 190.0}
# }

不确定性和可解释性

医学AI系统的"黑盒"问题是临床应用的主要障碍,医生需要理解模型的决策逻辑才能信任其输出:

🧠 医学决策的特殊要求:

  1. 责任归属机制

    • 误诊可能导致严重的法律后果
    • 需要明确模型与医生的责任边界
    • 可解释性是责任认定的基础
  2. 临床决策支持

    • 医生需要验证模型的推理过程
    • 理解模型关注的重要特征区域
    • 结合临床经验进行综合判断
  3. 持续改进需求

    • 通过错误分析改进模型性能
    • 识别模型的知识盲区
    • 积累罕见病例的处理经验

🔍 可解释性的多层次需求:

可解释性层级技术方法临床价值实现复杂度
全局解释特征重要性、模型可视化理解模型整体决策逻辑⭐⭐
局部解释注意力图、Grad-CAM解释单次预测的依据⭐⭐⭐
对比解释反事实解释、原型学习理为什么是A而不是B⭐⭐⭐⭐
不确定性贝叶斯方法、集成学习量化预测的置信度⭐⭐⭐⭐

💡 实际应用的可解释性技术:

python
class MedicalClassificationModel(nn.Module):
    """
    可解释的医学分类模型
    """
    def __init__(self, backbone, num_classes):
        super().__init__()

        self.attention_map = nn.Conv2d(backbone.feature_dim, 1, 1)

    def forward(self, x):
        features = self.backbone.extract_features(x)

        # 分类预测
        logits = self.classifier(F.adaptive_avg_pool2d(features, 1).flatten(1))
        probs = F.softmax(logits, dim=1)

        # 注意力图可视化
        attention = F.sigmoid(self.attention_map(features))

        return {
            'predictions': probs,
            'attention_maps': attention,
            'features': features
        }

🏥 2D CNN X线图像分类技术

X线分类特征

X线成像的物理基础

X线图像的形成原理决定了其分类任务的独特性

  1. 投影成像特性

    • 三维结构压缩为二维投影
    • 不同组织密度产生不同灰度值
    • 重叠效应导致信息融合
  2. 密度分辨率

    • 骨骼:高密度,白色区域
    • 软组织:中等密度,灰色区域
    • 气体/脂肪:低密度,黑色区域
  3. 临床诊断模式

    • 整体评估:对称性、器官轮廓
    • 局部病灶:异常密度、形态改变
    • 关联分析:多器官相互影响

整体图像理解的多层次特征

医学影像专家的认知过程反映了深度学习的特征层次:

特征层级人类专家认知CNN对应层临床意义
低级特征边缘、纹理、对比度浅层卷积器官边界、密度差异
中级特征形状模式、结构关系中层卷积器官形态、相对位置
高级特征病理征象、诊断模式深层全连接疾病模式、预后判断

🏥 不同解剖部位的X线分类特点:

  1. 胸部X线(最常见的分类任务):

    • 全局对称性:左右肺野的对称性评估
    • 纵隔位置:气管、心脏位置偏移
    • 膈肌形态:膈面光滑度、位置高度
    • 肺纹理分布:血管纹理的粗细、分布
  2. 骨关节X线

    • 骨骼完整性:骨折、骨质破坏
    • 关节间隙:关节炎、关节退变
    • 软组织肿胀:炎症、外伤征象
  3. 腹部X线

    • 肠道气体分布:肠梗阻、穿孔
    • 钙化灶识别:结石、结核钙化

🔬 全幻灯片图像多示例学习

全幻灯片图像挑战

WSI特征

全幻灯片图像(WSI)具有独特特征:

  • 超高分辨率:100,000×100,000像素或更高
  • 巨大文件大小:数GB
  • 可变放大倍数:不同物镜(4x、10x、20x、40x)
  • 仅有幻灯片级标签:通常只知道患者是否患有癌症

全幻灯片图像分析工作流程基于MIL的全幻灯片图像分析工作流程 - 自制示意图,展示从WSI到最终诊断的流程

MIL基础

问题形式化

在MIL中,一张幻灯片被视为一个包(bag),从中提取的patches是实例(instances)

  • 包标签:已知(如癌性/正常)
  • 实例标签:未知(哪些patches包含癌症)
  • 假设:如果包是阳性的,至少有一个实例是阳性的

🎯 医学影像目标检测技术

医学目标检测特征

与一般目标检测的差异

特征一般目标检测医学目标检测
目标常见物体病灶、结节、异常
尺寸变化适中很大(像素到全图)
形状规则不规则、边界模糊
类别平衡平衡极度不平衡
标注成本很高(专家标注)
要求速度准确性和可解释性

特殊挑战

  1. 微小病灶:一些结节可能只有几个像素
  2. 低对比度:与周围组织密度相似
  3. 边界模糊:病灶边界不规则
  4. 类别不平衡:负样本远多于正样本
