Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is widely used for screening and staging prostate cancer. However, many prostate cancers have subtle features which are not easily identifiable on MRI, resulting in missed diagnoses and alarming variability in radiologist interpretation. Machine learning models have been developed in an effort to improve cancer identification, but current models localize cancer using MRI-derived features, while failing to consider the disease pathology characteristics observed on resected tissue. In this paper, we propose CorrSigNet, an automated two-step model that localizes prostate cancer on MRI by capturing the pathology features of cancer. First, the model learns MRI signatures of cancer that are correlated with corresponding histopathology features using Common Representation Learning. Second, the model uses the learned correlated MRI features to train a Convolutional Neural Network to localize prostate cancer. The histopathology images are used only in the first step to learn the correlated features. Once learned, these correlated features can be extracted from MRI of new patients (without histopathology or surgery) to localize cancer. We trained and validated our framework on a unique dataset of 75 patients with 806 slices who underwent MRI followed by prostatectomy surgery. We tested our method on an independent test set of 20 prostatectomy patients (139 slices, 24 cancerous lesions, 1.12M pixels) and achieved a per-pixel sensitivity of 0.81, specificity of 0.71, AUC of 0.86 and a per-lesion AUC of $0.96 pm 0.07$, outperforming the current state-of-the-art accuracy in predicting prostate cancer using MRI.

Background and Objective:Computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) systems promote diagnosis effectiveness and alleviate pressure of radiologists. A CAD system for lung cancer diagnosis includes nodule candidate detection and nodule malignancy evaluation. Recen tly, deep learning-based pulmonary nodule detection has reached satisfactory performance ready for clinical application. However, deep learning-based nodule malignancy evaluation depends on heuristic inference from low-dose computed tomography volume to malignant probability, which lacks clinical cognition. Methods:In this paper, we propose a joint radiology analysis and malignancy evaluation network (R2MNet) to evaluate the pulmonary nodule malignancy via radiology characteristics analysis. Radiological features are extracted as channel descriptor to highlight specific regions of the input volume that are critical for nodule malignancy evaluation. In addition, for model explanations, we propose channel-dependent activation mapping to visualize the features and shed light on the decision process of deep neural network. Results:Experimental results on the LIDC-IDRI dataset demonstrate that the proposed method achieved area under curve of 96.27% on nodule radiology analysis and AUC of 97.52% on nodule malignancy evaluation. In addition, explanations of CDAM features proved that the shape and density of nodule regions were two critical factors that influence a nodule to be inferred as malignant, which conforms with the diagnosis cognition of experienced radiologists. Conclusion:Incorporating radiology analysis with nodule malignant evaluation, the network inference process conforms to the diagnostic procedure of radiologists and increases the confidence of evaluation results. Besides, model interpretation with CDAM features shed light on the regions which DNNs focus on when they estimate nodule malignancy probabilities.
Objective: We develop a computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) system using deep learning approaches for lesion detection and classification on whole-slide images (WSIs) with breast cancer. The deep features being distinguishing in classification from the co nvolutional neural networks (CNN) are demonstrated in this study to provide comprehensive interpretability for the proposed CAD system using pathological knowledge. Methods: In the experiment, a total of 186 slides of WSIs were collected and classified into three categories: Non-Carcinoma, Ductal Carcinoma in Situ (DCIS), and Invasive Ductal Carcinoma (IDC). Instead of conducting pixel-wise classification into three classes directly, we designed a hierarchical framework with the multi-view scheme that performs lesion detection for region proposal at higher magnification first and then conducts lesion classification at lower magnification for each detected lesion. Results: The slide-level accuracy rate for three-category classification reaches 90.8% (99/109) through 5-fold cross-validation and achieves 94.8% (73/77) on the testing set. The experimental results show that the morphological characteristics and co-occurrence properties learned by the deep learning models for lesion classification are accordant with the clinical rules in diagnosis. Conclusion: The pathological interpretability of the deep features not only enhances the reliability of the proposed CAD system to gain acceptance from medical specialists, but also facilitates the development of deep learning frameworks for various tasks in pathology. Significance: This paper presents a CAD system for pathological image analysis, which fills the clinical requirements and can be accepted by medical specialists with providing its interpretability from the pathological perspective.
Lung cancer begins in the lungs and leading to the reason of cancer demise amid population in the creation. According to the American Cancer Society, which estimates about 27% of the deaths because of cancer. In the early phase of its evolution, lung cancer does not cause any symptoms usually. Many of the patients have been diagnosed in a developed phase where symptoms become more prominent, that results in poor curative treatment and high mortality rate. Computer Aided Detection systems are used to achieve greater accuracies for the lung cancer diagnosis. In this research exertion, we proposed a novel methodology for lung Segmentation on the basis of Fuzzy C-Means Clustering, Adaptive Thresholding, and Segmentation of Active Contour Model. The experimental results are analysed and presented.
Current Computer-Aided Diagnosis (CAD) methods mainly depend on medical images. The clinical information, which usually needs to be considered in practical clinical diagnosis, has not been fully employed in CAD. In this paper, we propose a novel deep learning-based method for fusing Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)/Computed Tomography (CT) images and clinical information for diagnostic tasks. Two paths of neural layers are performed to extract image features and clinical features, respectively, and at the same time clinical features are employed as the attention to guide the extraction of image features. Finally, these two modalities of features are concatenated to make decisions. We evaluate the proposed method on its applications to Alzheimers disease diagnosis, mild cognitive impairment converter prediction and hepatic microvascular invasion diagnosis. The encouraging experimental results prove the values of the image feature extraction guided by clinical features and the concatenation of two modalities of features for classification, which improve the performance of diagnosis effectively and stably.

The diagnosis of prostate cancer faces a problem with overdiagnosis that leads to damaging side effects due to unnecessary treatment. Research has shown that the use of multi-parametric magnetic resonance images to conduct biopsies can drastically he lp to mitigate the overdiagnosis, thus reducing the side effects on healthy patients. This study aims to investigate the use of deep learning techniques to explore computer-aid diagnosis based on MRI as input. Several diagnosis problems ranging from classification of lesions as being clinically significant or not to the detection and segmentation of lesions are addressed with deep learning based approaches. This thesis tackled two main problems regarding the diagnosis of prostate cancer. Firstly, XmasNet was used to conduct two large experiments on the classification of lesions. Secondly, detection and segmentation experiments were conducted, first on the prostate and afterward on the prostate cancer lesions. The former experiments explored the lesions through a two-dimensional space, while the latter explored models to work with three-dimensional inputs. For this task, the 3D models explored were the 3D U-Net and a pretrained 3D ResNet-18. A rigorous analysis of all these problems was conducted with a total of two networks, two cropping techniques, two resampling techniques, two crop sizes, five input sizes and data augmentations experimented for lesion classification. While for segmentation two models, two input sizes and data augmentations were experimented. However, while the binary classification of the clinical significance of lesions and the detection and segmentation of the prostate already achieve the desired results (0.870 AUC and 0.915 dice score respectively), the classification of the PIRADS score and the segmentation of lesions still have a large margin to improve (0.664 accuracy and 0.690 dice score respectively).
