Generalizable multi-task, multi-domain deep segmentation of sparse pediatric imaging datasets via multi-scale contrastive regularization and multi-joint anatomical priors

Arnaud Boutillon et al.

Summary: Clinical diagnosis of the pediatric musculoskeletal system relies on the analysis of medical imaging examinations. In this study, a novel multi-task, multi-domain learning framework is proposed for semantic segmentation of pediatric imaging datasets. The proposed approach overcomes the scarcity of pediatric data by considering multiple intensity domains and segmentation tasks, and leveraging shared features between datasets. Transfer learning, multi-scale contrastive regularization, and anatomical priors are employed to improve the model's generalization capabilities. Experimental results demonstrate the superiority of the proposed approach in bone segmentation compared to individual, transfer, and shared segmentation schemes.
