• Registration-based label propagation is used for intra-subject muscle MR segmentation. • 3D few-shot segmentation is reached by propagating 2D labels using deep registration. • Propagation is guided by image intensity, muscle shape and registration consistency. • Bidirectional propagation uses registration quality estimation as weighting guidance. • An unsupervised pre-training stage initializes the deep registration framework. Fully automated approaches based on convolutional neural networks have shown promising performances on muscle segmentation from magnetic resonance (MR) images, but still rely on an extensive amount of training data to achieve valuable results. Muscle segmentation for pediatric and rare diseases cohorts is therefore still often done manually. Producing dense delineations over 3D volumes remains a time-consuming and tedious task, with significant redundancy between successive slices. In this work, we propose a segmentation method relying on registration-based label propagation, which provides 3D muscle delineations from a limited number of annotated 2D slices. Based on an unsupervised deep registration scheme, our approach ensures the preservation of anatomical structures by penalizing deformation compositions that do not produce consistent segmentation from one annotated slice to another. Evaluation is performed on MR data from lower leg and shoulder joints. Results demonstrate that the proposed semi-automatic multi-label segmentation model outperforms state-of-the-art techniques.

Clinical diagnosis of the pediatric musculoskeletal system relies on the analysis of medical imaging examinations. In the medical image processing pipeline, semantic segmentation using deep learning algorithms enables an automatic generation of patient-specific three-dimensional anatomical models which are crucial for morphological evaluation. However, the scarcity of pediatric imaging resources may result in reduced accuracy and generalization performance of individual deep segmentation models. In this study, we propose to design a novel multi-task, multi-domain learning framework in which a single segmentation network is optimized over the union of multiple datasets arising from distinct parts of the anatomy. Unlike previous approaches, we simultaneously consider multiple intensity domains and segmentation tasks to overcome the inherent scarcity of pediatric data while leveraging shared features between imaging datasets. To further improve generalization capabilities, we employ a transfer learning scheme from natural image classification, along with a multi-scale contrastive regularization aimed at promoting domain-specific clusters in the shared representations, and multi-joint anatomical priors to enforce anatomically consistent predictions. We evaluate our contributions for performing bone segmentation using three scarce and pediatric imaging datasets of the ankle, knee, and shoulder joints. Our results demonstrate that the proposed approach outperforms individual, transfer, and shared segmentation schemes in Dice metric with statistically sufficient margins. The proposed model brings new perspectives towards intelligent use of imaging resources and better management of pediatric musculoskeletal disorders. [Display omitted] • A multi-task, multi-domain segmentation method is proposed to address the scarcity of pediatric imaging datasets. • Our model leverages features shared between anatomical joints to learn more robust shared representations. • A regularization strategy based on a multi-scale contrastive metric is designed to impose domain-specific clusters. • Multi-joint anatomical priors are incorporated to enhance the anatomical consistency of the predicted delineations. • Our results outperformed state-of-the-art methods on three sparse and heterogeneous musculoskeletal datasets.

Morphological and diagnostic evaluation of pediatric musculoskeletal system is crucial in clinical practice. However, most segmentation models do not perform well on scarce pediatric imaging data. We propose a new pre-trained regularized convolutional encoder-decoder network for the challenging task of segmenting heterogeneous pediatric magnetic resonance (MR) images. To this end, we have conceived a novel optimization scheme for the segmentation network which comprises additional regularization terms to the loss function. In order to obtain globally consistent predictions, we incorporate a shape priors based regularization, derived from a non-linear shape representation learnt by an auto-encoder. Additionally, an adversarial regularization computed by a discriminator is integrated to encourage precise delineations. The proposed method is evaluated for the task of multi-bone segmentation on two scarce pediatric imaging datasets from ankle and shoulder joints, comprising pathological as well as healthy examinations. The proposed method performed either better or at par with previously proposed approaches for Dice, sensitivity, specificity, maximum symmetric surface distance, average symmetric surface distance, and relative absolute volume difference metrics. We illustrate that the proposed approach can be easily integrated into various bone segmentation strategies and can improve the prediction accuracy of models pre-trained on large non-medical images databases. The obtained results bring new perspectives for the management of pediatric musculoskeletal disorders. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
