研究論文(学術雑誌), Purpose: This study evaluates the use of deep learning techniques to automatically extract and delineate the aortic valve annulus region from contrast-enhanced cardiac CT images. Two approaches, namely, segmentation and object detection, were compared to determine their accuracy. Materials and Methods: A dataset of 32 contrast-enhanced cardiac CT scans was analyzed. The segmentation approach utilized the DeepLabv3+ model, while the object detection approach employed YOLOv2. The dataset was augmented through rotation and scaling, and five-fold cross-validation was applied. The accuracy of both methods was evaluated using the Dice similarity coefficient (DSC), and their performance in estimating the aortic valve annulus area was compared. Results: The object detection approach achieved a mean DSC of 0.809, significantly outperforming the segmentation approach, which had a mean DSC of 0.711. Object detection also demonstrated higher precision and recall, with fewer false positives and negatives. The aortic valve annulus area estimation had a mean error of 2.55 mm. Conclusions: Object detection showed superior performance in identifying the aortic valve annulus region, suggesting its potential for clinical application in cardiac imaging. The results highlight the promise of deep learning in improving the accuracy and efficiency of preoperative planning for cardiovascular interventions. - Lung Cancer Classification Using Masked Autoencoder Pretrained on J-MID Database

研究論文(学術雑誌), Identifying calcifications in mammograms is crucial for early breast cancer detection, and semi-supervised learning, which utilizes a small dataset for supervised learning combined with deep learning, is anticipated to be an effective approach for automating this identification process. This study explored the impact of semi-supervised learning on identifying mammographic calcifications by including 712 mammographic images from 252 patients in public datasets. Initially, 212 mammogram images were segmented into patches and classified visually for calcification presence. A subset of these patches, derived from 169 mammogram images, was used to train a ResNet50-based classifier. The classifier was evaluated using patches generated from 43 mammograms as a test data set. Additionally, 500 more mammogram images were processed into patches and analyzed using the trained ResNet50 model, with semi-supervised learning applied to patches exceeding certain classification probabilities. This process aimed to enhance the classifier’s accuracy and achieve improvements over the initial model. The findings indicated that semi-supervised learning significantly benefits the accuracy of calcification detection in mammography, underscoring its utility in enhancing diagnostic methodologies. - Assessment of changes in vessel area during needle manipulation in microvascular anastomosis using a deep learning-based semantic segmentation algorithm: A pilot study.

英語, 研究論文(学術雑誌), Appropriate needle manipulation to avoid abrupt deformation of fragile vessels is a critical determinant of the success of microvascular anastomosis. However, no study has yet evaluated the area changes in surgical objects using surgical videos. The present study therefore aimed to develop a deep learning-based semantic segmentation algorithm to assess the area change of vessels during microvascular anastomosis for objective surgical skill assessment with regard to the "respect for tissue." The semantic segmentation algorithm was trained based on a ResNet-50 network using microvascular end-to-side anastomosis training videos with artificial blood vessels. Using the created model, video parameters during a single stitch completion task, including the coefficient of variation of vessel area (CV-VA), relative change in vessel area per unit time (ΔVA), and the number of tissue deformation errors (TDE), as defined by a ΔVA threshold, were compared between expert and novice surgeons. A high validation accuracy (99.1%) and Intersection over Union (0.93) were obtained for the auto-segmentation model. During the single-stitch task, the expert surgeons displayed lower values of CV-VA (p < 0.05) and ΔVA (p < 0.05). Additionally, experts committed significantly fewer TDEs than novices (p < 0.05), and completed the task in a shorter time (p < 0.01). Receiver operating curve analyses indicated relatively strong discriminative capabilities for each video parameter and task completion time, while the combined use of the task completion time and video parameters demonstrated complete discriminative power between experts and novices. In conclusion, the assessment of changes in the vessel area during microvascular anastomosis using a deep learning-based semantic segmentation algorithm is presented as a novel concept for evaluating microsurgical performance. This will be useful in future computer-aided devices to enhance surgical education and patient safety. - Development of a Method for Estimating the Angle of Lumbar Spine X-ray Images Using Deep Learning with Pseudo X-ray Images Generated from Computed Tomography

Applied Sciences, 14, 9, 3794, 3794, MDPI AG, 2024年04月29日, [査読有り], [国際誌]
英語, 研究論文(学術雑誌), Background and Objectives: In lumbar spine radiography, the oblique view is frequently utilized to assess the presence of spondylolysis and the morphology of facet joints. It is crucial to instantly determine whether the oblique angle is appropriate for the evaluation and the necessity of retakes after imaging. This study investigates the feasibility of using a convolutional neural network (CNN) to estimate the angle of lumbar oblique images. Since there are no existing lumbar oblique images with known angles, we aimed to generate synthetic lumbar X-ray images at arbitrary angles from computed tomography (CT) images and to estimate the angles of these images using a trained CNN. Methods: Synthetic lumbar spine X-ray images were created from CT images of 174 individuals by rotating the lumbar spine from 0° to 60° in 5° increments. A line connecting the center of the spinal canal and the spinous process was used as the baseline to define the shooting angle of the synthetic X-ray images based on how much they were tilted from the baseline. These images were divided into five subsets and trained using ResNet50, a CNN for image classification, implementing 5-fold cross-validation. The models were trained for angle estimation regression and image classification into 13 classes at 5° increments from 0° to 60°. For model evaluation, mean squared error (MSE), root mean squared error (RMSE), and the correlation coefficient (r) were calculated for regression analysis, and the area under the curve (AUC) was calculated for classification. Results: In the regression analysis for angles from 0° to 60°, the MSE was 14.833 degree2, the RMSE was 3.820 degrees, and r was 0.981. The average AUC for the 13-class classification was 0.953. Conclusion: The CNN developed in this study was able to estimate the angle of an lumbar oblique image with high accuracy, suggesting its usefulness. - Imaging of 17O-labeled Water Using Fast T2 Mapping with T2-preparation: A Phantom Study.

英語, 研究論文(学術雑誌), 17O-labeled water is a T2-shortening contrast agent used in proton MRI and is a promising method for visualizing cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) dynamics because it provides long-term tracking of water molecules. However, various external factors reduce the accuracy of 17O-concentration measurements using conventional signal-intensity-based methods. In addition, T2 mapping, which is expected to provide a stable assessment, is generally limited to temporal-spatial resolution. We developed the T2-prepared based on T2 mapping used in cardiac imaging to adapt to long T2 values and tested whether it could accurately measure 17O-concentration in the CSF using a phantom. The results showed that 17O-concentration in a fluid mimicking CSF could be evaluated with an accuracy comparable to conventional T2-mapping (Carr-Purcell-Meiboom-Gill multi-echo spin-echo method). This method allows 17O-imaging with a high temporal resolution and stability in proton MRI. This imaging technique may be promising for visualizing CSF dynamics using 17O-labeled water. - Deep learning-based video-analysis of instrument motion in microvascular anastomosis training.

英語, 研究論文(学術雑誌), PURPOSE: Attaining sufficient microsurgical skills is paramount for neurosurgical trainees. Kinematic analysis of surgical instruments using video offers the potential for an objective assessment of microsurgical proficiency, thereby enhancing surgical training and patient safety. The purposes of this study were to develop a deep-learning-based automated instrument tip-detection algorithm, and to validate its performance in microvascular anastomosis training. METHODS: An automated instrument tip-tracking algorithm was developed and trained using YOLOv2, based on clinical microsurgical videos and microvascular anastomosis practice videos. With this model, we measured motion economy (procedural time and path distance) and motion smoothness (normalized jerk index) during the task of suturing artificial blood vessels for end-to-side anastomosis. These parameters were validated using traditional criteria-based rating scales and were compared across surgeons with varying microsurgical experience (novice, intermediate, and expert). The suturing task was deconstructed into four distinct phases, and parameters within each phase were compared between novice and expert surgeons. RESULTS: The high accuracy of the developed model was indicated by a mean Dice similarity coefficient of 0.87. Deep learning-based parameters (procedural time, path distance, and normalized jerk index) exhibited correlations with traditional criteria-based rating scales and surgeons' years of experience. Experts completed the suturing task faster than novices. The total path distance for the right (dominant) side instrument movement was shorter for experts compared to novices. However, for the left (non-dominant) side, differences between the two groups were observed only in specific phases. The normalized jerk index for both the right and left sides was significantly lower in the expert than in the novice groups, and receiver operating characteristic analysis showed strong discriminative ability. CONCLUSION: The deep learning-based kinematic analytic approach for surgical instruments proves beneficial in assessing performance in microvascular anastomosis. Moreover, this methodology can be adapted for use in clinical settings. - Development of a Mammography Calcification Detection Algorithm Using Deep Learning with Resolution-Preserved Image Patch Division

研究論文(学術雑誌), Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) in deep learning have input pixel limitations, which leads to lost information regarding microcalcification when mammography images are compressed. Segmenting images into patches retains the original resolution when inputting them into the CNN and allows for identifying the location of calcification. This study aimed to develop a mammographic calcification detection method using deep learning by classifying the presence of calcification in the breast. Using publicly available data, 212 mammograms from 81 women were segmented into 224 × 224-pixel patches, producing 15,049 patches. These were visually classified for calcification and divided into five subsets for training and evaluation using fivefold cross-validation, ensuring image consistency. ResNet18, ResNet50, and ResNet101 were used for training, each of which created a two-class calcification classifier. The ResNet18 classifier achieved an overall accuracy of 96.0%, mammogram accuracy of 95.8%, an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.96, and a processing time of 0.07 s. The results of ResNet50 indicated 96.4% overall accuracy, 96.3% mammogram accuracy, an AUC of 0.96, and a processing time of 0.14 s. The results of ResNet101 indicated 96.3% overall accuracy, 96.1% mammogram accuracy, an AUC of 0.96, and a processing time of 0.20 s. This developed method offers quick, accurate calcification classification and efficient visualization of calcification locations. - Tissue Acceleration as a Novel Metric for Surgical Performance During Carotid Endarterectomy.

英語, 研究論文(学術雑誌), BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Gentle tissue handling to avoid excessive motion of affected fragile vessels during surgical dissection is essential for both surgeon proficiency and patient safety during carotid endarterectomy (CEA). However, a void remains in the quantification of these aspects during surgery. The video-based measurement of tissue acceleration is presented as a novel metric for the objective assessment of surgical performance. This study aimed to evaluate whether such metrics correlate with both surgeons' skill proficiency and adverse events during CEA. METHODS: In a retrospective study including 117 patients who underwent CEA, acceleration of the carotid artery was measured during exposure through a video-based analysis. Tissue acceleration values and threshold violation error frequencies were analyzed and compared among the surgeon groups with different surgical experience (3 groups: novice, intermediate, and expert). Multiple patient-related variables, surgeon groups, and video-based surgical performance parameters were compared between the patients with and without adverse events during CEA. RESULTS: Eleven patients (9.4%) experienced adverse events after CEA, and the rate of adverse events significantly correlated with the surgeon group. The mean maximum tissue acceleration and number of errors during surgical tasks significantly decreased from novice, to intermediate, to expert surgeons, and stepwise discriminant analysis showed that the combined use of surgical performance factors could accurately discriminate between surgeon groups. The multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that the number of errors and vulnerable carotid plaques were associated with adverse events. CONCLUSION: Tissue acceleration profiles can be a novel metric for the objective assessment of surgical performance and the prediction of adverse events during surgery. Thus, this concept can be introduced into futuristic computer-aided surgeries for both surgical education and patient safety. - Age Estimation from Brain Magnetic Resonance Images Using Deep Learning Techniques in Extensive Age Range

研究論文(学術雑誌), Estimation of human age is important in the fields of forensic medicine and the detection of neurodegenerative diseases of the brain. Particularly, the age estimation methods using brain magnetic resonance (MR) images are greatly significant because these methods not only are noninvasive but also do not lead to radiation exposure. Although several age estimation methods using brain MR images have already been investigated using deep learning, there are no reports involving younger subjects such as children. This study investigated the age estimation method using T1-weighted (sagittal plane) two-dimensional brain MR imaging (MRI) of 1000 subjects aged 5–79 (31.64 ± 18.04) years. This method uses a regression model based on ResNet-50, which estimates the chronological age (CA) of unknown brain MR images by training brain MR images corresponding to the CA. The correlation coefficient, coefficient of determination, mean absolute error, and root mean squared error were used as the evaluation indices of this model, and the results were 0.9643, 0.9299, 5.251, and 6.422, respectively. The present study showed the same degree of correlation as those of related studies, demonstrating that age estimation can be performed for a wide range of ages with higher estimation accuracy. - Utility of the deep learning technique for the diagnosis of orbital invasion on CT in patients with a nasal or sinonasal tumor.

英語, 研究論文(学術雑誌), BACKGROUND: In nasal or sinonasal tumors, orbital invasion beyond periorbita by the tumor is one of the important criteria in the selection of the surgical procedure. We investigated the usefulness of the convolutional neural network (CNN)-based deep learning technique for the diagnosis of orbital invasion, using computed tomography (CT) images. METHODS: A total of 168 lesions with malignant nasal or sinonasal tumors were divided into a training dataset (n = 119) and a test dataset (n = 49). The final diagnosis (invasion-positive or -negative) was determined by experienced radiologists who carefully reviewed all of the CT images. In a CNN-based deep learning analysis, a slice of the square target region that included the orbital bone wall was extracted and fed into a deep-learning training session to create a diagnostic model using transfer learning with the Visual Geometry Group 16 (VGG16) model. The test dataset was subsequently tested in CNN-based diagnostic models and by two other radiologists who were not specialized in head and neck radiology. At approx. 2 months after the first reading session, two radiologists again reviewed all of the images in the test dataset, referring to the diagnoses provided by the trained CNN-based diagnostic model. RESULTS: The diagnostic accuracy was 0.92 by the CNN-based diagnostic models, whereas the diagnostic accuracies by the two radiologists at the first reading session were 0.49 and 0.45, respectively. In the second reading session by two radiologists (diagnosing with the assistance by the CNN-based diagnostic model), marked elevations of the diagnostic accuracy were observed (0.94 and 1.00, respectively). CONCLUSION: The CNN-based deep learning technique can be a useful support tool in assessing the presence of orbital invasion on CT images, especially for non-specialized radiologists. - Changes in Magnetic Resonance Signal Fluctuation in Superior Sagittal Sinus: Deterioration of Arteriolar Vasomotor Function of Young Smokers

英語, 研究論文(学術雑誌), (1) Cerebral arteriolar vasomotor function is vital for brain health and has been examined through CO2 inhalation or breath-holding, which are both challenging for patients. We have developed a non-invasive method to evaluate this function with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) by utilizing respiration-induced natural changes in partial pressure of arterial CO2 (PaCO2). In this study, we applied this method for 20s to evaluate the chronic effect of a few years smoking on the cerebral arteriolar vasomotor function. (2) A single slice (five slice thicknesses: 15 mm to 7 mm) perpendicular to the superior sagittal sinus of was imaged successively for 45 s using spin-echo echo-planar imaging by 3T MRI for ten smokers (24.5 ± 1.6 years) and ten non-smokers (24.3 ± 1.4 years), respectively. The venous oxygenation fluctuation (ΔYr) caused by the respiration-induced changes of PaCO2, which reflects the arteriolar vasomotor function, was calculated from the time series MR signal changes of superior sagittal sinus. (3) The ΔYr values of the smokers (0.7 ± 0.6) were significantly lower than those of the non-smokers (1.3 ± 0.8) (p = 0.04). (4) Degeneration of the cerebral arteriolar vasomotor function due to chronic smoking (even after 20s) was demonstrated by our non-invasive MRI-based method., 33102257 - Progress in Understanding Radiofrequency Heating and Burn Injuries for Safer MR Imaging

Atherosclerosis, 337, 7, 17, Elsevier BV, 2021年11月, [査読有り], [国際誌]
英語, 研究論文(学術雑誌), BACKGROUND AND AIMS: This study aimed to investigate whether N-benzyl-N-methyl-2-[7,8-dihydro-7-(2-[18F]fluoroethyl)-8-oxo-2-phenyl-9H-purin-9-yl]acetamide (18F-FEDAC), a probe for translocator protein (TSPO), can visualize atherosclerotic lesions in rabbits and whether TSPO is localized in human coronary plaques. METHODS: 18F-FEDAC-PET of a rabbit model of atherosclerosis induced by a 0.5% cholesterol diet and balloon injury of the left carotid artery (n = 7) was performed eight weeks after the injury. The autoradiography intensity of 18F-FEDAC in carotid artery tissue sections was measured, and TSPO expression was evaluated immunohistochemically. TSPO expression was examined in human coronary arteries obtained from autopsy cases (n = 16), and in human coronary plaques (n = 12) aspirated from patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). RESULTS: 18F-FEDAC-PET visualized the atherosclerotic lesions in rabbits as high-uptake areas, and the standard uptake value was higher in injured arteries (0.574 ± 0.24) than in uninjured arteries (0.277 ± 0.13, p < 0.05) or myocardium (0.189 ± 0.07, p < 0.05). Immunostaining showed more macrophages and more TSPO expression in atherosclerotic lesions than in uninjured arteries. TSPO was localized in macrophages, and arterial autoradiography intensity was positively correlated with macrophage concentration (r = 0.64) and TSPO (r = 0.67). TSPO expression in human coronary arteries was higher in AMI cases than in non-cardiac death, or in the vulnerable plaques than in early or stable lesions, respectively. TSPO was localized in macrophages in all aspirated coronary plaques with thrombi. CONCLUSIONS: 18F-FEDAC-PET can visualize atherosclerotic lesions, and TSPO-expression may be a marker of high-risk coronary plaques. - Electromagnetic simulation of RF burn injuries occurring at skin-skin and skin-bore wall contact points in an MRI scanner with a birdcage coil

本研究開発は、虚血性脳血管障害の発症原因の主因となる頚動脈の不安定プラークを近年悪性腫瘍の治療へ応用が始まったα線標識薬剤アスタチン-211により不安定プラークの制御を試み、本邦初のアイソトープ治療に基づく虚血性脳血管障害の発症阻止への展開を目指すものである。当該年度においては、不安定プラークの治療適応例検出や治療候補薬剤の不安定プラークへの集積性を評価する事を目的としてPETイメージング法および病理オートラジオグラフィー法を行い、以下の研究実績を得た。
治療候補標識薬剤として、動脈硬化病変アポトーシス発現部位への選択的薬剤を候補とした。アポトーシス発現細胞に結合するAnnexin-A5 (ANXV5)は画像診断法として有用性の報告が有ったが血中クリアランスが遅く治療用薬剤としては不適格であった。そこで、炎症細胞浸潤を伴った炎症病変に発現するトランスローケータプロテイン(TSPO)に特異的に結合する性質を持ったFEDACをフッ素-18 (18F)により標識し合成を行った。頚動脈の動脈硬化症モデルウサギに対し、動物用CTで動脈硬化病変を形態的に評価し、PET画像の解析の補助とした。ポジトロン断層撮像を用い血管壁プラークへの薬剤集積を検討した。18F-FEDACでは全例で動脈硬化病変の血管壁への薬剤集積度が対照とした対側の未処置病変よりも高値であることが確認された。よって18F-FEDACは集積特異性が高いものと考えられた。また周囲の正常組織への集積はほぼ認められなかった。
本検討により、候補薬剤が動脈硬化病変に特異的に集積する事が示唆され、次年度の方針であるα線標識薬剤を用いたアイソトープ治療に基づく脳血管障害の予防治療へ展開する予定である。

高齢者の骨折リスクは主に骨塩定量により把握されているが、骨折リスクの直接的指標である骨強度は骨塩定量により求まる骨密度のみでは決まらず骨質にも大きく依存する。骨質は骨軸方向への骨中コラーゲン配向性が主因であるが、それを非侵襲的に検出する方法は存在していない。そこで、本研究はコラーゲン分子の微細な磁化構造が磁気共鳴画像法(MRI)の信号に影響を与えることに着目し、MRIを用いて骨中コラーゲン配向性情報を非侵襲的に検出する方法の確立を目的としている。健常皮質骨からのMR信号は、皮質骨中のコラーゲン線維の磁化率異方性に起因し、静磁場方向と骨軸角度(コラーゲン配向方向)に依存することが予想される。本年度は、その予想の検証を目指し、牛大腿皮質骨(4ヶ月、2歳)試料のMR信号の角度依存性および年齢依存性を調べた。なお、皮質骨からのMR信号は減衰が速いため従来観測できずに着目されなかったが、近年開発されその臨床応用が模索されているUTE(Ultrashort echo time)法を用いて検出した。得られたMR信号は180°周期の骨軸角度依存性を示し、その周期信号の振幅は2歳骨の方が低下し、若年皮質骨中で集約していたコラーゲン線維が成熟し構造化される様子が現れているものと解釈でき、骨質を MRI で評価できる可能性が示唆された。また、遺伝子操作により骨粗鬆症または大理石骨病を発症させたマウス骨試料を対象に同様な測定を実施したが、試料サイズが小さくMRI撮像および解析方法に課題が残った。

昨年度実施した細胞内高粘を模擬したグリセロール水溶液(91% (w/w))MRI信号の酸素濃度依存性実験結果に、グリセロールの水酸基と水分子の水素原子の化学交換状態の影響が判明したため、本年度はその化学交換状態の指標となる水酸基のケミカルシフトの値をもとに化学交換の影響を取り除く高精度な実験および解析を実施した。その結果、酸素分子によるMRI信号の横緩和時間短縮効果がグリセロール水溶液(粘度:75 cP)では、生理食塩水(1 cP)の230±50倍に増強されることが定量化された。また、本年度は当初予定していた「MRI信号に現れる細胞内酸素濃度変化の検証」に取り組み、3T MRI装置にて健常人頭部を対象に、高粘性状態の細胞内からのMRI信号を強調する拡散強調撮像法を用いて時系列連続撮像を行い、頭部MRI信号の安静時揺らぎを調べた。得られた結果は、酸素分子による縦緩和時間短縮に伴う信号増強効果と、横緩和時間短縮効果に伴う信号減弱効果が拮抗し酸素濃度変動によるMRI信号揺らぎが発生しない特異的なエコー時間の存在を示した。また、その特異的エコー時間には、時系列連続撮像繰り返し時間の増加とともに低下するという理論的特性があることも定量的に確認した。これらの結果より拡散強調撮像による頭部MRI信号には高粘性状態の細胞内の安静時酸素濃度揺らぎが反映されることが示唆された。また、画像雑音の影響も定量的に調べ、得られた結果が人頭部細胞内からのMRI信号由来の結果であるとの自信を深めた。
