Serp-Mamba: Advancing High-Resolution Retinal Vessel Segmentation With Selective State-Space Model.
, IEEE Trans Med Imaging, Vol: 44, Pages: 4811-4825Ultra-Wide-Field Scanning Laser Ophthalmoscopy (UWF-SLO) images capture high-resolution views of the retina with typically spanning 200 degrees. Accurate segmentation of vessels in UWF-SLO images is essential for detecting and diagnosing fundus disease. Recent studies highlight that Mamba's selective State Space Model (SSM) excels in modeling long-range dependencies with linear computational complexity, making it highly suitable for preserving the continuity of elongated vessel structures, especially for high-resolution UWF images. Inspired by this, we propose the Serpentine Mamba (Serp-Mamba) network to address this challenging task. Specifically, we recognize the intricate, varied, and delicate nature of the tubular structure of vessels. Furthermore, the high-resolution of UWF-SLO images exacerbates the imbalance between the vessel and background categories. Based on the above observations, we first devise a Serpentine Interwoven Adaptive (SIA) scan mechanism, which scans UWF-SLO images along curved vessel structures in a snake-like crawling manner. This approach, consistent with vascular texture transformations, ensures the effective and continuous capture of curved vascular structure features. Second, we propose an Ambiguity-Driven Dual Recalibration (ADDR) module to address the category imbalance problem intensified by high-resolution images. Our ADDR module delineates pixels by two learnable thresholds and refines ambiguous pixels through a dual-driven strategy, thereby accurately distinguishing vessels and background regions. Experiment results on three datasets demonstrate the superior performance of our Serp-Mamba on high-resolution vessel segmentation. We also conduct a series of ablation studies to verify the impact of our designs. Our code will be released upon publication (https://github.com/whq-xxh/Serp-Mamba).

7-Tesla sodium magnetic resonance imaging of the inner ears in unilateral Ménière’s disease and endolymphatic hydrops: an exploratory study
, BMC Medical Imaging, Vol: 25, ISSN: 1471-2342BackgroundWhilst delayed post-gadolinium MRI has led to a shift in the diagnostic paradigm of Meniere’s Disease (MD), there remains a strong desire to develop a non-contrast enhanced MRI technique to detect and monitor MD. The endolymphatic space (ES) undergoes hydropic expansion in Ménière’s Disease (MD) and the concentration of sodium ions in the endolymph is at least 10 times lower than that in the perilymph. It was hypothesised that the lower sodium (23Na) concentration in the endolymph relative to the surrounding perilymph would result in a differential reduction in 23Na-MRI signal in inner ears with endolymphatic hydrops (EH). This proof of principle study explored the feasibility of 7-Tesla (7T) 23Na-MRI to lateralise EH ears in unilateral MD.MethodsIn this prospective study, 7T 23Na-MRI was performed in participants with both unilateral definite MD and severe vestibulo-cochlear EH on a delayed post-gadolinium real inversion recovery sequence. Two blinded independent observers qualitatively graded the visibility and anatomical compatibility of inner ear 23Na MRI signal intensity (NaSI), before and after registering to 3D T2-weighted (T2w) MRI and determined the certainty of EH laterality. The internal auditory meatus (IAM), cochlea and vestibule were segmented using 3D Slicer and NaSI was quantified. Inner ear median NaSI were scaled to the adjacent IAM median NaSI and compared between the two ears.ResultsIn 4 unilateral MD participants (mean age 60.3 years, 2 men), both observers correctly predicted EH laterality in 1/4 before and 3/4 participants after fusion to 3D T2w MRI. There was no incorrect lateralisation of EH by either observer, either before or after registration and fusion. In the 3 participants correctly lateralised, quantitative analysis revealed the median inner ear NaSI scaled to the ipsilateral IAM was 1.2–2.8 times higher in the normal cochlea and 1.9–2.9 times higher in the vestibule, compared to
