For the characterization of the kidney segmentation task, this paper proposes a self-supervised kidney segmentation method based on multi-scale feature fusion and residual full attention, named MRFA-Net. In this study, we introduce the multi-scale feature fusion module to extract multi-scale information of kidneys from abdominal CT slices; additionally, the residual full-attention convolution module is designed to handle the multi-scale information of kidneys by introducing a full-attention mechanism, thus improving the segmentation results of kidneys. The Dice coefficient on the Kits19 dataset reaches 0.972. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method achieves good segmentation performance compared to other algorithms, effectively enhancing the accuracy of kidney segmentation.
