Placental MRI segmentation based on multi-receptive field and mixed attention separation mechanism

To reduce the occurrence of massive bleeding during placental abruption in patients with placenta accrete, we established a medical imaging based on multi-receptive field and mixed attention separation mechanism (MRF-MAS) model to improve the accuracy of MRI placenta segmentation and provide a basis for subsequent placenta accreta.We propose a placenta MRI segmentation technology using the MRF-MAS framework to develop a medical image diagnostic technique. The model first uses the multi-receptive field feature structure to obtain multi-level information, and improves the expression of features at differing scales. Note that the hybrid attention mechanism combines channel attention and spatial attention, separates the input feature sets and computes the attention separately, and finally reorganizes the feature maps. To show that the model can improve the accuracy of segmenting the placenta, we adopt mean Intersection over Union (IoU), Dice similarity coefficient (Dice) and area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) with U-Net, Mask RCNN, Deeplab v3 for comparison.The four models achieved different outcomes based on our placenta dataset, with our model IoU and Dice up to 0.8169 and 0.8992, which are 5.51% and 3.03% higher than the average of the three comparison models.The model proposed by us is helpful to assist the imaging diagnosis and at the same time provides a quantitative reference for the precise treatment of placenta accreta, assists the Equationtion of the clinical operation plan of the physician, and promotes the precision medicine of placenta accreta.
