MC-Net: An Endometrial Cancer Pathological Multy Class Image Segmentation Method

Pathological image segmentation is a widely used technique for classifying lesions and surrounding tissue types. Developing high-precision segmentation algorithms relies heavily on a large dataset of accurately labeled digital pathology images; however, the labeling process is both time-intensive and laborious, and such well-labeled images are scarce. As a result, pathology image segmentation presents a significant challenge. In this paper, we propose an MC-Net-based framework for multi-class segmentation of endometrial cancer pathology images. The framework utilizes a semi-supervised segmentation approach, making it adaptable to datasets with varying annotation volumes and diverse application scenarios. By leveraging multi-class transformers to learn the irregular shapes of pathological tissues, MC-Net achieves high segmentation accuracy. Experimental results demonstrate that, compared to existing segmentation methods, MC-Net effectively performs multi-class segmentation and diagnostic classification of pathological tissues, thereby providing valuable technical support for the pathological diagnosis of endometrial cancer and enabling accurate staging of the disease through automated analysis.

Abstract

Pathological image segmentation is a widely used technique for classifying lesions and surrounding tissue types. Developing high-precision segmentation algorithms relies heavily on a large dataset of accurately labeled digital pathology images; however, the labeling process is both time-intensive and laborious, and such well-labeled images are scarce. As a result, pathology image segmentation presents a significant challenge. In this paper, we propose an MC-Net-based framework for multi-class segmentation of endometrial cancer pathology images. The framework utilizes a semi-supervised segmentation approach, making it adaptable to datasets with varying annotation volumes and diverse application scenarios. By leveraging multi-class transformers to learn the irregular shapes of pathological tissues, MC-Net achieves high segmentation accuracy. Experimental results demonstrate that, compared to existing segmentation methods, MC-Net effectively performs multi-class segmentation and diagnostic classification of pathological tissues, thereby providing valuable technical support for the pathological diagnosis of endometrial cancer and enabling accurate staging of the disease through automated analysis.
