A Benchmark Framework for the Right Atrium Cavity Segmentation From LGE-MRIs

Résumé fourni par la source

The right atrium (RA) is critical for cardiac hemodynamics but is often overlooked in clinical diagnostics. This study presents a benchmark framework for RA cavity segmentation from late gadolinium-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (LGE-MRIs), leveraging a two-stage strategy and a novel 3D deep learning network, RASnet. The architecture addresses challenges in class imbalance and anatomical variability by incorporating multi-path input, multi-scale feature fusion modules, Vision Transformers, context interaction mechanisms, and deep supervision. Evaluated on datasets comprising 354 LGE-MRIs, RASnet achieves SOTA performance with a Dice score of 92.19% on a primary dataset and demonstrates robust generalizability on an independent dataset. The proposed framework establishes a benchmark for RA cavity segmentation, enabling accurate and efficient analysis for cardiac imaging applications. Open-source code (https://github.com/zjinw/RAS) and data (https://zenodo.org/records/15524472) are provided to facilitate further research and clinical adoption.
