| Sumario: | This study focused on the application of deep learning algorithms in the segmentation of CT images, so as to diagnose chronic kidney diseases accurately and quantitatively. First, the residual dual-attention module (RDA module) was used for automatic segmentation of renal cysts in CT images. 79 patients with renal cysts were selected as research subjects, of whom 27 cases were defined as the test group and 52 cases were defined as the training group. The segmentation results of the test group were evaluated factoring into the Dice similarity coefficient (DSC), precision, and recall. The experimental results showed that the loss function value of the RDA-UNET model rapidly decayed and converged, and the segmentation results of the model in the study were roughly the same as those of manual labeling, indicating that the model had high accuracy in image segmentation, and the contour of the kidney can be segmented accurately. Next, the RDA-UNET model achieved 96.25% DSC, 96.34% precision, and 96.88% recall for the left kidney and 94.22% DSC, 95.34% precision, and 94.61% recall for the right kidney, which were better than other algorithms. The results showed that the algorithm model in this study was superior to other algorithms in each evaluation index. It explained the advantages of this model compared with other algorithm models. In conclusion, the RDA-UNET model can effectively improve the accuracy of CT image segmentation, and it is worth of promotion in the quantitative assessment of chronic kidney diseases through CT imaging. |
