Harmonization-enriched domain adaptation with light fine-tuning for multiple sclerosis lesion segmentation

Deep learning algorithms utilizing magnetic resonance (MR) images have demonstrated cutting-edge proficiency in autonomously segmenting multiple sclerosis (MS) lesions. Despite their achievements, these algorithms may struggle to extend their performance across various sites or scanners, leading to domain generalization errors. While few-shot or one-shot domain adaptation emerges as a potential solution to mitigate generalization errors, its efficacy might be hindered by the scarcity of labeled data in the target domain. This paper seeks to tackle this challenge by integrating one-shot adaptation data with harmonized training data that incorporates labels. Our approach involves synthesizing new training data with a contrast akin to that of the test domain, a process we refer to as "contrast harmonization" in MRI. Our experiments illustrate that the amalgamation of one-shot adaptation data with harmonized training data surpasses the performance of utilizing either data source in isolation. Notably, domain adaptation using exclusively harmonized training data achieved comparable or even superior performance compared to one-shot adaptation. Moreover, all adaptations required only minimal fine-tuning, ranging from 2 to 5 epochs for convergence.
