GLIA-Net: Global Localization based Intracranial Aneurysm Network

This is the official repository of GLIA-Net, a segmentation network for intracranial aneurysm on CTA images using pytorch. If you find it useful in your research, please cite our paper: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.patter.2020.100197

Requirements

The project has been tested in both Windows 10 and Ubuntu 16.04 using python 3.6. But the training and evaluation code cannot use multi-processing on windows. Other packages can be installed using pip or conda.

torch>=1.4
torchvision
tensorboardX
medpy
SimpleITK>=2.0.0rc1
PyYAML
pillow
colorlog

Prepare data

If you want to train your model, put the data in medical_data/ and prepare an instance information file like medical_data/aneurysm_seg.csv. All the images should be in nii.gz format.

Train

Prepare a training configuration file like configs/GLIA-Net.yaml. Then run

python train.py -c GLIA-Net

The logs, checkpoints, summaries and other running assets will be saved to exp/.

Or you can download a pretrained model - checkpoint-0245700.pt. Then put it to exp/GLIA-Net/1/ckpt.

Evaluation

Prepare an evaluation configuration file like configs/eval_GLIA-Net.yaml, which should have a filename prefix of 'eval_'. Then run

python evaluate.py -c eval_GLIA-Net

Not that this is an evaluation on patches, which depends on how to generate all patches. If you want to evaluate on whole cases, run the inference code to generate predictions and then

python evaluate_per_case.py \
    -c eval_per_case \
    -g path/to/ground_truth \
    -p path/to/predictions

View the tensorboard

You can view the training and evaluation information using tensorboard. Run tensorboard --logdir=exp to run a tensorboard server.

Inference

Prepare an inference configureation file like configs/inference_GLIA-Net.yaml, which should have a filename prefix of 'inference_'. Then run

python inference.py \
    -c inference_GLIA-Net \
    -i path/to/input/file/or/folder \
    -t nii
    -o path/to/save/predictions

The inference code support single or multiple input images and image format of nii.gz or dicom series. If you want to refine the predictions, run the code

python refine_segmenation.py \
    -i path/to/predictions/before/refine \
    -o path/to/save/refined/predictions

Advanced functions

The code support other functions like different devices by setting -d to "cpu", "0", or "1,2,3"..., multi-thread and multi-process data pipeline, and so on.

You can refer to the input argument instructions in train.py, evaluation.py and inference.py. You can also modify the configurations in configs/.

The training code using batch_size of 1 shall require about 3GB of memory. You can increase the batch size according to your memory capacity.
