In this paper, we present the Multi-Center Privacy-Preserving Network (MP-Net), a novel framework designed for secure medical image segmentation in multi-center collaborations. Our methodology offers a new approach to multi-center collaborative learning, capable of reducing the volume of data transmission and enhancing data privacy protection. Unlike federated learning, which requires the transmission of model data between the central server and local servers in each round, our method only necessitates a single transfer of encrypted data.

However, the invasive and costly nature of RHC limits its widespread application in daily practice.
Purpose: To develop a fully automatic framework for PAP assessment via machine learning based on computed tomography pulmonary angiography (CTPA).
