ABSTRACT
Accurate reconstruction of tissue elasticity modulus distribution has always been an important challenge in ultrasound elastography. Considering that existing deep learning-based supervised reconstruction methods only use simulated displacement data with random noise in training, which cannot fully provide the complexity and diversity brought by in-vivo ultrasound data, this study introduces the use of displacement data obtained by tracking in-vivo ultrasound radio frequency signals (i.e., real displacement data) during training, employing a semi-supervised approach to enhance the prediction accuracy of the model. Experimental results indicate that in phantom experiments, the semi-supervised model augmented with real displacement data provides more accurate predictions, with mean absolute errors and mean relative errors both around 3%, while the corresponding data for the fully supervised model are around 5%. When processing real displacement data, the area of prediction error of semi-supervised model was less than that of fully supervised model. The findings of this study confirm the effectiveness and practicality of the proposed approach, providing new insights for the application of deep learning methods in the reconstruction of elastic distribution from in-vivo ultrasound data.
