A pre-trained Swin UNETR [1,2] for volumetric (3D) multi-organ segmentation using CT images from Beyond the Cranial Vault (BTCV) Segmentation Challenge dataset [3].
model workflow
Data
The training data is from the BTCV dataset (Register through Synapse and download the Abdomen/RawData.zip).
Target: Multi-organs
Task: Segmentation
Modality: CT
Size: 30 3D volumes (24 Training + 6 Testing)
Preprocessing
The dataset format needs to be redefined using the following commands:
If you face memory issues with CacheDataset, you can either switch to a regular Dataset class or lower the caching rate cache_rate in the configurations within range [0, 1] to minimize the System RAM requirements.
Input
1 channel
CT image
Output
14 channels:
0: Background
1: Spleen
2: Right Kidney
3: Left Kideny
4: Gallbladder
5: Esophagus
6: Liver
7: Stomach
8: Aorta
9: IVC
10: Portal and Splenic Veins
11: Pancreas
12: Right adrenal gland
13: Left adrenal gland
Performance
Dice score was used for evaluating the performance of the model. This model achieves a mean dice score of 0.82
Training Loss
The figure shows the training loss curve for 10K iterations.
Validation Dice
A graph showing the validation mean Dice for 5000 epochs.
MONAI Bundle Commands
In addition to the Pythonic APIs, a few command line interfaces (CLI) are provided to interact with the bundle. The CLI supports flexible use cases, such as overriding configs at runtime and predefining arguments in a file.
python -m monai.bundle run --config_file configs/train.json
Please note that if the default dataset path is not modified with the actual path in the bundle config files, you can also override it by using --dataset_dir:
python -m monai.bundle run --config_file configs/train.json --dataset_dir <actual dataset path>
Override the train config to execute multi-GPU training:
torchrun --standalone --nnodes=1 --nproc_per_node=2 -m monai.bundle run --config_file "['configs/train.json','configs/multi_gpu_train.json']"
Please note that the distributed training-related options depend on the actual running environment; thus, users may need to remove --standalone, modify --nnodes, or do some other necessary changes according to the machine used. For more details, please refer to pytorch's official tutorial.
Override the train config to execute evaluation with the trained model:
python -m monai.bundle run --config_file "['configs/train.json','configs/evaluate.json']"
Execute inference:
python -m monai.bundle run --config_file configs/inference.json
Export checkpoint to TorchScript file:
TorchScript conversion is currently not supported.
