Tri-Directional Sub-Voxel Displacement and Ipsilateral Territory Decoupling for 3D Bilateral Coronary Artery Tree Reconstruction in Cardiac CT Angiography
Abstract
Three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction of bilateral coronary trees (LCA and RCA) from cardiac computed tomography angiography (CCTA) is limited by 643 quantization, territory ambiguity, and sinotubular junction (STJ) ostium drift. We present a canonical SO(3) (ZIS, YPA, XLR) multi-scale representation and Riemannian arborescence framework. First, we map 3D CCTA volumes, centerlines, and thick-stem ostia into (ZIS, YPA, XLR) space, extending a 3D pyramid and tubular decoder with a 1283 → 643 boundary skip, a stop-gradient 1283 residual branch, a sub-voxel displacement head Δû(x), a dual-channel ipsilateral head (PLCA, PRCA), and a 323 ostium detector. Second, all $327,385$ active parameters ($398,843$ total) are trained in one 30-epoch AdamW loop (ε= 10−8) under decoupled L2-SP and aortic-wall consistency. Third, our Riemannian solver couples cylindrical Valsalva-STJ calibration, 1283 orifice contact rooting, contralateral inhibition, centripetal pruning, and 4-stage curvature-adaptive normal-plane pullback. On 14 unseen ImageCAS development volumes (28 trees; cases 201--250 isolated), the framework achieves 2.1652 ± 0.4686 mm CDCL (CDCLarc1mm = 2.2697 ± 0.4863 mm, p ≤ 0.00024; 57.40% / 78.20% F1@1/2mm; 4.6880 / 4.9298 mm ostia). Zero-shot evaluation on 50 unseen volumes (Cases 251--300, 100 trees) yields 2.9389 ± 1.2785 mm CDCL (p ≤ 7.24 × 10−7; ostia 5.1815 / 7.5442 mm), with 2.7696 ± 1.1919 mm pooled N=64 CDCL and 128/128 trees (β0 = 1, β1 = 0, 0.0000 mm detachment).

We present a canonical SO(3) (Z_IS, Y_PA, X_LR) multi-scale representation and Riemannian arborescence framework. First, we map 3D CCTA volumes, centerlines, and thick-stem ostia into (Z_IS, Y_PA, X_LR) space, extending a 3D pyramid and tubular decoder with a 128^3 → 64^3 boundary skip, a stop-gradient 128^3 residual branch, a sub-voxel displacement head Δû(x), a dual-channel ipsilateral head (P_LCA, P_RCA), and a 32^3 ostium detector. Second, all $327,385$ active parameters ($398,843$ total) are trained in one 30-epoch AdamW loop (ε= 10^−8) under decoupled L2-SP and aortic-wall consistency. Third, our Riemannian solver couples cylindrical Valsalva-STJ calibration, 128^3 orifice contact rooting, contralateral inhibition, centripetal pruning, and 4-stage curvature-adaptive normal-plane pullback.
