摘要

Precise localization and complete segmentation of entire lesions are crucial in medical image segmentation. However, existing methods focus on capturing spatial dimensional information while losing sight of effectively modeling of channel dependencies. The substantial semantic discrepancies among features at various levels in UNet-based image segmentation models poses a challenge for capturing edge features. To tackle these issues, a dual-branch encoder-based medical image segmentation model, named MCFNet, is proposed. In global feature extraction branch of the encoder, a channel attention-enhanced Mamba structure (CEMamba) designed employs channel attention and depth-wise convolution to capture multi-channel information, achieving a collaborative modeling of global spatial and channel dimensions. The local feature extraction branch adopts ResNet34 to extract local information. Furthermore, a Multi-level Features Aggregation Decoding module (MFAD) is proposed, where large kernel convolutions are employed to capture multi-scale spatial features, while the Dynamic Channel Attention module (DCA) is designed to achieve cross-stage features semantic alignment. Extensive experiments were conducted on four medical image segmentation datasets-ISIC2017, ISIC2018, Kvasir-SEG, and CVC-ClinicDB. Compared to H-vmunet, our method achieves significant improvements in mDice by 1.09, 0.69, 4.08 and 4.30 percentage points, respectively.
