Abstract

Large-scale CT image studies often suffer from a lack of homogeneity regarding radiomic characteristics due to the images acquired with scanners from different vendors or with different reconstruction algorithms. We propose a deep learning-based framework called UDA-CT to tackle the homogeneity issue by leveraging both paired and unpaired images. Using UDA-CT, the CT images can be standardized both from different acquisition protocols of the same scanner and CT images acquired using a similar protocol but scanners from different vendors. UDA-CT incorporates recent advances in deep learning including domain adaptation and adversarial augmentation. It includes a unique design for model training batch which integrates nonstandard images and their adversarial variations to enhance model generalizability. The experimental results show that UDA-CT significantly improves the performance of the cross-scanner image standardization by utilizing both paired and unpaired data.
