Abstract

Abstract: Medical imaging technology has become one of the indispensable computer-assisted intervention methods in clinical disease diagnosis and treatment, including identifying and locating lesion areas, detecting and segmenting tissue and organ lesions in different modalities. The wide application of medical image analysis in clinical examination and medical auxiliary diagnosis has effectively improved the diagnostic efficiency of doctors. In this paper, we propose a novel and effective model to achieve semantic segmentation of cataract datasets. This model uses the self-supervised method BYOL for parameter pre-training, which improves the model's ability to extract image consistency features. In addition, we have added a lightweight Coordinate attention mechanism to the backbone network to enable the model to independently learn the correlation between the channel and the space and enhance the ability of network feature expression. Experiments are conducted on the cataract endoscopy fine-grained segmentation data set, showing the effectiveness of the proposed method for segment the organs and surgical instruments in the cataract surgical microscope image, which demonstrates the accuracy and robustness of the proposed method.
