S202, the medical imaging apparatus generates target medical image data according to the BMP data source, wherein the target medical image data includes at least a data set of the target organ and a data set of a blood vessel around the target organ, the data set of the blood vessel includes a data set of an artery and/or a data set of a vein, and the data of intersection positions of the artery and the vein are independent from each other, the data set of the target organ is a transfer function result of a cubic space between a surface of the target organ and a tissue structure inside the target organ, and the data set of the blood vessel is a transfer function result of a cubic space between a surface of the blood vessel and the tissue structure inside the blood vessel.
In this possible example, the medical imaging apparatus generates the target medical image data according to the BMP data source, including: the medical imaging apparatus introduces the BMP data source into a preset VRDS medical network model to obtain a first medical image data, wherein the first medical image data includes the data set of the target organ and the data set of the blood vessel, and the data set of the blood vessel includes the fusion data of the intersection position of the artery and the vein; introduces the first medical image data into a preset cross blood vessel network model to obtain a second medical image data, wherein the second medical image data includes the data set of the target organ, the data set of the artery and the data set of the vein, and the first data in the data set of the artery and the second data in the data set of the vein are independent from each other, executes a first preset processing on the second medical image data to obtain target medical image data, wherein the first preset processing includes at least one of the following operations: 2D boundary optimization processing, 3D boundary optimization processing and data enhancement processing, and the target medical image data includes the data set of the target organ, the data set of the artery and the data set of the vein.

Wherein the 2D boundary optimization processing includes: acquiring low-resolution information and high-resolution information by sampling multiple times, wherein the low-resolution information can provide context semantic information of a segmentation target throughout the image, that is, features reflecting the relationship between the target and the environment, these features are used to judge the class of objects, and the high-resolution information is used to provide more fine features, such as gradients, for segmentation targets.
The 3D boundary optimization processing includes: 3D convolution, 3D maximum pooling and 3D upward convolution layer. the size of input data is a1, a2 and a3, the number of channels is c, and the size of the filter is f, that is, the dimension of the filter is f*f*f*c, and the number of filters is n, so the final output of 3 dimensional convolution is:
(a1−f+1)*(a2−f+1)*(a3−f+1)*n
which has an analysis path and a synthesis path. In the analysis path, each layer includes two convolution kernels of 3*3*3, each of which follows an activation function (Relu), and then there is a maximum pooling of 2*2*2 on each dimension to merge the two step lengths. In the synthesis path, each layer is composed of 2*2*2 upward convolution, and the step length on each dimension is 2, next, two 3*3*3 convolutions, and then Relu. Shortcut connections from equal resolution layers in the analysis path then provide the basic high-resolution features of the synthetic path.

In this possible example, the medical imaging apparatus determines the bitmap BMP data source according to a plurality of scanned images associated with the target organ of the target user, including: the medical imaging apparatus acquires a plurality of scanned images collected by a medical device and reflecting internal structure features of human body of the target user, screens at least one scanned image including the target organ from the plurality of scanned images, and takes the at least one scanned image as medical digital imaging and communication DICOM data of the target user, parses the DICOM data to generate a image source of the target user, wherein the image source includes Texture 2D/3D image volume data; executes a second preset process for the image source to obtain the BMP data source, wherein the second preset process includes at least one of the following operations: VRDS limited contrast adaptive histogram equalization, mixed partial differential denoising and VRDS AI elastic deformation processing.
Wherein, the VRDS limited contrast adaptive histogram equalization includes: regional noise ratio limiting and global contrast limiting; the local histogram of the image source is divided into a plurality of partitions, for each partition, the slope of the transform function is determined according to the slope of the cumulative histogram of the neighborhood of the partition, and the contrast amplification degree around the pixel value of the partition is determined according to the slope of the transform function, then, according to the contrast amplification degree, the limit clipping process is carried out to generate the distribution of effective histograms and the value of effective available neighborhood size, and these clipped partial histograms are uniformly distributed to other areas of the histogram.
Wherein, the mixed partial differential denoising includes: different from Gaussian low-pass filtering (which weakens the high-frequency components of the image indiscriminately and blurs the edges of the image while denoising), the isophotes (including edges) formed by objects in the natural image should be smooth and unhindered curves, that is, the absolute value of curvature of these isophotes should be small enough, and when the image is polluted by noise, the local gray value of the image will fluctuate randomly, and it leads to the irregular oscillation of the isophote and forms the isophote with large local curvature, and according to this principle, a mixed partial differential denoising model is designed, which can protect the image edge and avoid the step effect in the smoothing process by VRDS AI curvature driving and VRDS AI high-order hybrid denoising.
Wherein, the VRDS AI elastic deformation processing includes: superimposing positive and negative random distances on the original lattice to form a difference position matrix, and then forming a new lattice at the gray level of each difference position, so as to achieve the internal distortion of the image, and further performing rotation, distortion and translation operations etc. on the image.
It can be seen that in this example, the medical imaging apparatus obtains the BMP data source by processing the raw scanned image data, which improves the information amount of the raw data and increases the depth dimension information, and finally obtains the data meeting the display requirements of the 4D medical image.

Wherein, taking the kidney as an example, if the tissue associated with the current abnormal data only includes the kidney, that is, the abnormal data is in the spatial range of the kidney, then the tumor is determined to be the tumor inside the kidney.
It can be seen that, in this example, the medical imaging apparatus can accurately determine the location information of the tumor through the association analysis of the tissues described in the data, and because of the high accuracy of data comparison, the difference of doctors' eye observation is avoided, and the accuracy and efficiency of tumor location recognition are improved.

Wherein, tumor is a new organism formed by abnormal proliferation and differentiation caused by the loss of normal regulation on the growth of the cells of local tissue at the gene level under the action of various tumorigenic factors. Benign tumor refers to a tumor that has no ability of invasion and metastasis. Benign tumors often have capsule, clear boundary and present smooth continuous characteristic. Malignant tumor is a kind of cellular disease, which is characterized by sudden mutation of genetic gene, resulting in persistent abnormal hyperproliferation of cells to form a lump, because of its invasion to surrounding tissues and transfer to other organs, the boundary is usually unclear, showing non-smooth continuous characteristics.
It can be seen that in this example, the medical imaging apparatus determines the boundary characteristics of tumors by analyzing the boundary data of tumors, and accurately determines the types of tumors according to the boundary characteristics, which is facilitated to improve the accuracy and efficiency of tumor type recognition.
In this possible example, the attribute information includes a size attribute; the medical imaging apparatus determines the attribute information of the tumor of the target user according to the abnormal data including: the medical imaging apparatus determines spatial coordinate information of each abnormal data in the constant data; and determines the size attribute of the tumor of the target user according to the spatial coordinate information of each abnormal data.

Wherein, the 4D medical imaging refers to presenting a the four-dimensional medical image.
In this possible example, the medical imaging apparatus preforms the 4D medical imaging according to the target medical image data, including: the medical imaging apparatus screens enhanced data with a quality score greater than a preset score from the target medical image data as VRDS 4D imaging data.

In this possible example, the specific implementation of the medical imaging apparatus outputting the attribute information of the tumor may be: the medical imaging apparatus preforms outputting the attribute information at a preset position of a display screen displaying an image of the tumor when a selection operation for a position of the tumor is detected.
Wherein, the selection operation can be specifically selected by the user through the mouse, or through a head-mounted VR device to control the viewing angle for selection, etc, which is not uniquely limited here, and it can be seen that the triggering process of the display of the attribute information is convenient and efficient.
