摘要	PurposePelvic X-ray (PXR) is widely utilized in clinical decision-making associated with the pelvis, the lower part of the trunk that supports and balances the trunk. In particular, PXR-based landmark detection facilitates downstream analysis and computer-assisted diagnosis and treatment of pelvic diseases. Although PXR has the advantages of low radiation and reduced cost compared to computed tomography (CT), it characterizes the 2D pelvis-tissue superposition of 3D structures, which may affect the accuracy of landmark detection in some cases. However, the superposition nature of PXR is implicitly handled by existing deep learning-based landmark detection methods, which mainly design the deep network structures for better detection performances. Explicit handling of the superposition nature of PXR is rarely done.MethodsIn this paper, we explicitly focus on the superposition of X-ray images. Specifically, we propose a pelvis extraction (PELE) module that consists of a decomposition network, a domain adaptation network, and an enhancement module, which utilizes 3D prior anatomical knowledge in CT to guide and well isolate the pelvis from PXR, thereby eliminating the influence of soft tissue for landmark detection. The extracted pelvis image, after enhancement, is then used for landmark detection.ResultsWe conduct an extensive evaluation based on two public and one private dataset, totaling 850 PXRs. The experimental results show that the proposed PELE module significantly improves the accuracy of PXRs landmark detection and achieves state-of-the-art performances in several benchmark metrics.ConclusionThe design of PELE module can improve the accuracy of different pelvic landmark detection baselines, which we believe is obviously conducive to the positioning and inspection of clinical landmarks and critical structures, thus better serving downstream tasks.
