Performance of a convolutional neural network derived from an ECG database in recognizing myocardial infarction.

ABSTRACT: Artificial intelligence (AI) is developing rapidly in the medical technology field, particularly in image analysis. ECG-diagnosis is an image analysis in the sense that cardiologists assess the waveforms presented in a 2-dimensional image. We hypothesized that an AI using a convolutional neural network (CNN) may also recognize ECG images and patterns accurately. We used the PTB ECG database consisting of 289 ECGs including 148 myocardial infarction (MI) cases to develop a CNN to recognize MI in ECG. Our CNN model, equipped with 6-layer architecture, was trained with training-set ECGs. After that, our CNN and 10 physicians are tested with test-set ECGs and compared their MI recognition capability in metrics F1 (harmonic mean of precision and recall) and accuracy. The F1 and accuracy by our CNN were significantly higher (83?±?4%, 81?±?4%) as compared to physicians (70?±?7%, 67?±?7%, P?

Project description:IntroductionThe electrocardiogram (ECG) is a valuable tool for the diagnosis of myocardial ischemia as it presents distinctive ischemic patterns. Deep learning methods such as convolutional neural networks (CNN) are employed to extract data-derived features and to recognize natural patterns. Hence, CNN enable an unbiased view on well-known clinical phenomenon, e.g., myocardial ischemia. This study tested a novel, hypothesis-generating approach using pre-trained CNN to determine the optimal ischemic parameter as obtained from the highly susceptible intracoronary ECG (icECG).MethodThis was a retrospective observational study in 228 patients with chronic coronary syndrome. Each patient had participated in clinical trials with icECG recording and ST-segment shift measurement at the beginning (i.e., non-ischemic) and the end (i.e., ischemic) of a one-minute proximal coronary artery balloon occlusion establishing the reference. Using these data (893 icECGs in total), two pre-trained, open-access CNN (GoogLeNet/ResNet101) were trained to recognize ischemia. The best performing CNN during training were compared with the icECG ST-segment shift for diagnostic accuracy in the detection of artificially induced myocardial ischemia.ResultsUsing coronary patency or occlusion as reference for absent or present myocardial ischemia, receiver-operating-characteristics (ROC)-analysis of manually obtained icECG ST-segment shift (mV) showed an area under the ROC-curve (AUC) of 0.903±0.043 (p<0.0001, sensitivity 80%, specificity 92% at a cut-off of 0.279mV). The best performing CNN showed an AUC of 0.924 (sensitivity 93%, specificity 92%). DeLong-Test of the ROC-curves showed no significant difference between the AUCs. The underlying morphology responsible for the network prediction differed between the trained networks but was focused on the ST-segment and the T-wave for myocardial ischemia detection.ConclusionsWhen tested in an experimental setting with artificially induced coronary artery occlusion, quantitative icECG ST-segment shift and CNN using pathophysiologic prediction criteria detect myocardial ischemia with similarly high accuracy.

Project description:Background:Bone age can reflect the true growth and development status of a child; thus, it plays a critical role in evaluating growth and endocrine disorders. This study established and validated an optimized Tanner-Whitehouse 3 artificial intelligence (TW3-AI) bone age assessment (BAA) system based on a convolutional neural network (CNN). Methods:A data set of 9,059 clinical radiographs of the left hand was obtained from the picture archives and communication systems (PACS) between January 2012 and December 2016. Among these, 8,005/9,059 (88%) samples were treated as the training set for model implementation, 804/9,059 (9%) samples as the validation set for parameters optimization, and the remaining 250/9,059 (3%) samples were used to verify the accuracy and reliability of the model compared to that of 4 experienced endocrinologists and 2 experienced radiologists. The overall variation of TW3-metacarpophalangeal, radius, ulna and short bones (RUS) and TW3-Carpal bone score, as well as each bone (13 RUS + 7 Carpal) between reviewers and the AI, were compared by Bland-Altman (BA) chart and Kappa test, respectively. Furthermore, the time consumption between the model and reviewers was also compared. Results:The performance of TW3-AI model was highly consistent with the reviewers' overall estimation, and the root mean square (RMS) was 0.50 years. The accuracy of the BAA of the TW3-AI model was better than the estimate of the reviewers. Further analysis revealed that human interpretations of the male capitate, hamate, the first distal and fifth middle phalanx and female capitate, the trapezoid, and the third and fifth middle phalanx, were most inconsistent. The average image processing time was 1.5±0.2 s in the TW3-AI model, which was significantly shorter than manual interpretation. Conclusions:The diagnostic performance of CNN-based TW3 BAA was accurate and timesaving, and possesses better stability compared to diagnostics made by experienced experts.

Project description:High accuracy has been reported in deep learning classification for amyloid brain scans, an important factor in Alzheimer's disease diagnosis. However, the possibility of overfitting should be considered, as this model is fitted with sample data. Therefore, we created and evaluated an [18F]Florbetaben amyloid brain positron emission tomography (PET) scan classification model with a Dong-A University Hospital (DAUH) dataset based on a convolutional neural network (CNN), and performed external validation with the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative dataset. Spatial normalization, count normalization, and skull stripping preprocessing were performed on the DAUH and external datasets. However, smoothing was only performed on the external dataset. Three types of models were used, depending on their structure: Inception3D, ResNet3D, and VGG3D. After training with 80% of the DAUH dataset, an appropriate model was selected, and the rest of the DAUH dataset was used for model evaluation. The generalization potential of the selected model was then validated using the external dataset. The accuracy of the model evaluation for Inception3D, ResNet3D, and VGG3D was 95.4%, 92.0%, and 97.7%, and the accuracy of the external validation was 76.7%, 67.1%, and 85.3%, respectively. Inception3D and ResNet3D were retrained with the external dataset; then, the area under the curve was compared to determine the binary classification performance with a significance level of less than 0.05. When external validation was performed again after fine tuning, the performance improved to 15.3%p for Inception3D and 16.9%p for ResNet3D. In [18F]Florbetaben amyloid brain PET scan classification using CNN, the generalization potential can be seen through external validation. When there is a significant difference between the model classification performance and the external validation, changing the model structure or fine tuning the model can help improve the classification performance, and the optimal model can also be found by collaborating through a web-based open platform.
