Abstract:

The accurate segmentation of breast tumours is important for the diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer. When using the classic U-Net, Attention-UNet, and UNet++ to segment the tumour, there are problems of oversegmentation, incorrect segmentation, and poor edge continuity. In this paper, an effective tumour segmentation method, EfficientUNet, is proposed. EfficientUNet adopts a step-by-step enhancement method, combining ResNet18, a channel attention mechanism and deep supervision. ResNet18, as the encoder of the whole network, solves the problem of gradient disappearanceand improves the feature extraction ability of the model. The channel attention module makes the model more accurate in tumour edge processing. The deep supervision technology accelerates the model training and provides the convergence direction for the model. In addition, it is found that when adjusting the size of the image, the method of image filling before clipping (or zooming) is more conducive to model learning than the direct interpolation method. And a comparative experiment wasperformed on dataset B. Compared to U-Net, Attention-UNet and UNet++, EfficientUNet has the highest performance. Finally, the ablation experiment also indicated the effectiveness of each module in EfficientUNet. An effective tumour segmentation method, EfficientUNet, for breast ultrasound images, is proposed. EfficientUNet adopts a step-by-step enhancement method, combining ResNet18, channel attention mechanism, and deep supervision. ResNet18, as the encoder of the whole network, solves the problem of gradient disappearance caused by the network being too deep to improve the feature extraction ability of the model. The channel attention module improves the segmentation performance of the whole model effectively, and makes the model more accurate in tumour edge processing.image
