Learn2Reg 2024: New Benchmark Datasets Driving Progress on New Challenges

Medical image registration is critical for clinical applications, and fair benchmarking of different methods is essential for monitoring ongoing progress in the field. To date, the Learn2Reg 2020-2023 challenges have released several complementary datasets and established metrics for evaluations. Building on this foundation, the 2024 edition expands the challenge's scope to cover a wider range of registration scenarios, particularly in terms of modality diversity and task complexity, by introducing three new tasks, including large-scale multi-modal registration and unsupervised inter-subject brain registration, as well as the first microscopy-focused benchmark within Learn2Reg. The new datasets also inspired new method developments, including invertibility constraints, pyramid features, keypoints alignment and instance optimisation.

SIAM: Head and Brain MRI Segmentation from Few High-Quality Templates via Synthetic Training

Synthetic training has recently advanced brain MRI segmentation by enabling contrast-agnostic models trained entirely on generated data. However, most existing approaches rely on hundreds of automatically labeled templates, introducing systematic biases and limiting their flexibility to incorporate new anatomical structures. We present the Segment It All Model (SIAM), a 3D whole-head segmentation framework for 16 anatomical structures, trained using only six high-quality, manually annotated templates. SIAM extends domain randomization to both intensity and shape domains: synthetic image generation ensures contrast variability, while high-resolution spatial transformations model anatomical differences in cortical thickness and deep nuclei morphology. Unlike prior synthetic models, SIAM simultaneously segments brain as well as extra-cerebral tissues, including cerebrospinal fluid, vessels, dura mater, skull, and skin, enabling fully automated, preprocessing-free analysis. Evaluation across eight heterogeneous datasets (N=301), that include multiple contrasts (T1-weighted, T2-weighted, CT) and span a wide range of ages, demonstrates that SIAM matches or outperforms state-of-the-art methods for brain structures, in addition to extending automated segmentation to non-brain structures. The model also exhibits superior consistency across contrasts and repeated acquisitions, together with improved sensitivity to subtle gray matter atrophy. We openly release the model and the label templates at https://github.com/romainVala/SIAM.

Manual segmentation versus semi-automated segmentation for quantifying vestibular schwannoma volume on MRI

Management of vestibular schwannoma (VS) is based on tumour size as observed on T1 MRI scans with contrast agent injection. Current clinical practice is to measure the diameter of the tumour in its largest dimension. It has been shown that volumetric measurement is more accurate and more reliable as a measure of VS size. The reference approach to achieve such volumetry is to manually segment the tumour, which is a time intensive task. We suggest that semi-automated segmentation may be a clinically applicable solution to this problem and that it could replace linear measurements as the clinical standard. Using high-quality software available for academic purposes, we ran a comparative study of manual versus semi-automated segmentation of VS on MRI with 5 clinicians and scientists. We gathered both quantitative and qualitative data to compare the two approaches; including segmentation time, segmentation effort and segmentation accuracy. We found that the selected semi-automated segmentation approach is significantly faster (167s versus 479s, p<0.001), less temporally and physically demanding and has approximately equal performance when compared with manual segmentation, with some improvements in accuracy. There were some limitations, including algorithmic unpredictability and error, which produced more frustration and increased mental effort in comparison to manual segmentation. We suggest that semi-automated segmentation could be applied clinically for volumetric measurement of VS on MRI. In future, the generic software could be refined for use specifically for VS segmentation, thereby improving accuracy.

Learning joint lesion and tissue segmentation from task-specific hetero-modal datasets

Brain tissue segmentation from multimodal MRI is a key building block of many neuroscience analysis pipelines. It could also play an important role in many clinical imaging scenarios. Established tissue segmentation approaches have however not been developed to cope with large anatomical changes resulting from pathology. The effect of the presence of brain lesions, for example, on their performance is thus currently uncontrolled and practically unpredictable. Contrastingly, with the advent of deep neural networks (DNNs), segmentation of brain lesions has matured significantly and is achieving performance levels making it of interest for clinical use. However, few existing approaches allow for jointly segmenting normal tissue and brain lesions. Developing a DNN for such joint task is currently hampered by the fact that annotated datasets typically address only one specific task and rely on a task-specific hetero-modal imaging protocol. In this work, we propose a novel approach to build a joint tissue and lesion segmentation model from task-specific hetero-modal and partially annotated datasets. Starting from a variational formulation of the joint problem, we show how the expected risk can be decomposed and optimised empirically. We exploit an upper-bound of the risk to deal with missing imaging modalities. For each task, our approach reaches comparable performance than task-specific and fully-supervised models.
