    Area of Science:

    • Medical Imaging
    • Artificial Intelligence
    • Computer Vision

    Background:

    • Deep learning excels in medical image segmentation but requires extensive manual annotations, which are costly and time-consuming.
    • Annotation-efficient methods are crucial for advancing AI in healthcare by reducing data acquisition burdens.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop an annotation-efficient learning framework for medical image segmentation.
    • To leverage unpaired medical images and auxiliary masks for training segmentation models.
    • To achieve segmentation performance comparable to supervised methods without manual annotations.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized an improved Cycle-Consistent Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) for learning from unpaired medical images.
    • Employed a Variational Auto-encoder (VAE)-based discriminator with auxiliary masks to generate pseudo labels under shape constraints.

  • Introduced a Discriminator-guided Generator Channel Calibration (DGCC) module for generator refinement.
  • Implemented a noise-robust iterative learning method with noise-weighted Dice loss to handle pseudo-label inaccuracies.
  • Main Results:

    • The VAE-based discriminator and DGCC module effectively produced high-quality pseudo labels.
    • The noise-robust learning strategy successfully mitigated the impact of noisy pseudo labels.
    • Segmentation performance using the proposed framework closely matched or surpassed results from methods relying on human annotations.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed framework offers a viable solution for annotation-efficient medical image segmentation.
    • The approach demonstrates the potential to significantly reduce the need for manual annotations in medical AI.
    • This method holds promise for broader applications in medical image analysis where labeled data is scarce.
