MRGen: Diffusion-based Controllable Data Engine for MRI Segmentation towards Unannotated Modalities
HaoNing Wu, Ziheng Zhao, Ya zhang, Weidi Xie, Yanfeng Wang
Medical image segmentation has recently demonstrated impressive progress with deep neural networks, yet the heterogeneous modalities and scarcity of mask annotations limit the development of segmentation models on unannotated modalities. This paper investigates a new paradigm for leveraging generative models in medical applications: controllably synthesizing data for unannotated modalities, without requiring registered data pairs. Specifically, we make the following contributions in this paper: (i) we collect and curate a large-scale radiology image-text dataset, MedGen-1M, comprising modality labels, attributes, region, and organ information, along with a subset of organ mask annotations, to support research in controllable medical image generation; (ii) we propose a diffusion-based data engine, termed MRGen, which enables generation conditioned on text prompts and masks, synthesizing MR images for diverse modalities lacking mask annotations, to train segmentation models on unannotated modalities; (iii) we conduct extensive experiments across various modalities, illustrating that our data engine can effectively synthesize training samples and extend MRI segmentation towards unannotated modalities.
