Deep Learning Based on Standard H&E Images of Primary Melanoma Tumors Identifies Patients at Risk for Visceral Recurrence and Death.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

Biomarkers for disease-specific survival (DSS) in early-stage melanoma are needed to select patients for adjuvant immunotherapy and accelerate clinical trial design. We present a pathology-based computational method using a deep neural network architecture for DSS prediction.

Experimental design

The model was trained on 108 patients from four institutions and tested on 104 patients from Yale School of Medicine (YSM, New Haven, CT). A receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was generated on the basis of vote aggregation of individual image sequences, an optimized cutoff was selected, and the computational model was tested on a third independent population of 51 patients from Geisinger Health Systems (GHS).

Results

Area under the curve (AUC) in the YSM patients was 0.905 (P < 0.0001). AUC in the GHS patients was 0.880 (P < 0.0001). Using the cutoff selected in the YSM cohort, the computational model predicted DSS in the GHS cohort based on Kaplan-Meier (KM) analysis (P < 0.0001).

Conclusions

The novel method presented is applicable to digital images, obviating the need for sample shipment and manipulation and representing a practical advance over current genetic and IHC-based methods.

Deep learning predicts postsurgical recurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma from digital histopathologic images.

Project description:Recurrence risk stratification of patients undergoing primary surgical resection for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is an area of active investigation, and several staging systems have been proposed to optimize treatment strategies. However, as many as 70% of patients still experience tumor recurrence at 5 years post-surgery. We developed and validated a deep learning-based system (HCC-SurvNet) that provides risk scores for disease recurrence after primary resection, directly from hematoxylin and eosin-stained digital whole-slide images of formalin-fixed, paraffin embedded liver resections. Our model achieved concordance indices of 0.724 and 0.683 on the internal and external test cohorts, respectively, exceeding the performance of the standard Tumor-Node-Metastasis classification system. The model's risk score stratified patients into low- and high-risk subgroups with statistically significant differences in their survival distributions, and was an independent risk factor for post-surgical recurrence in both test cohorts. Our results suggest that deep learning-based models can provide recurrence risk scores which may augment current patient stratification methods and help refine the clinical management of patients undergoing primary surgical resection for HCC.

Deep Learning-Based Evaluation of Ultrasound Images for Benign Skin Tumors.

Project description:In this study, a combined convolutional neural network for the diagnosis of three benign skin tumors was designed, and its effectiveness was verified through quantitative and statistical analysis. To this end, 698 sonographic images were taken and diagnosed at the Department of Dermatology at Severance Hospital in Seoul, Korea, between 10 November 2017 and 17 January 2020. Through an empirical process, a convolutional neural network combining two structures, which consist of a residual structure and an attention-gated structure, was designed. Five-fold cross-validation was applied, and the train set for each fold was augmented by the Fast AutoAugment technique. As a result of training, for three benign skin tumors, an average accuracy of 95.87%, an average sensitivity of 90.10%, and an average specificity of 96.23% were derived. Also, through statistical analysis using a class activation map and physicians' findings, it was found that the judgment criteria of physicians and the trained combined convolutional neural network were similar. This study suggests that the model designed and trained in this study can be a diagnostic aid to assist physicians and enable more efficient and accurate diagnoses.

Deep Learning-based Quantification of Abdominal Subcutaneous and Visceral Fat Volume on CT Images.

Project description:Rationale and objectivesDevelop a deep learning-based algorithm using the U-Net architecture to measure abdominal fat on computed tomography (CT) images.Materials and methodsSequential CT images spanning the abdominal region of seven subjects were manually segmented to calculate subcutaneous fat (SAT) and visceral fat (VAT). The resulting segmentation maps of SAT and VAT were augmented using a template-based data augmentation approach to create a large dataset for neural network training. Neural network performance was evaluated on both sequential CT slices from three subjects and randomly selected CT images from the upper, central, and lower abdominal regions of 100 subjects.ResultsBoth subcutaneous and abdominal cavity segmentation images created by the two methods were highly comparable with an overall Dice similarity coefficient of 0.94. Pearson's correlation coefficients between the subcutaneous and visceral fat volumes quantified using the two methods were 0.99 and 0.99 and the overall percent residual squared error were 5.5% and 8.5%. Manual segmentation of SAT and VAT on the 555 CT slices used for testing took approximately 46 hours while automated segmentation took approximately 1 minute.ConclusionOur data demonstrates that deep learning methods utilizing a template-based data augmentation strategy can be employed to accurately and rapidly quantify total abdominal SAT and VAT with a small number of training images.

BCR-Net: A deep learning framework to predict breast cancer recurrence from histopathology images.

Project description:Breast cancer is the most common malignancy in women, with over 40,000 deaths annually in the United States alone. Clinicians often rely on the breast cancer recurrence score, Oncotype DX (ODX), for risk stratification of breast cancer patients, by using ODX as a guide for personalized therapy. However, ODX and similar gene assays are expensive, time-consuming, and tissue destructive. Therefore, developing an AI-based ODX prediction model that identifies patients who will benefit from chemotherapy in the same way that ODX does would give a low-cost alternative to the genomic test. To overcome this problem, we developed a deep learning framework, Breast Cancer Recurrence Network (BCR-Net), which automatically predicts ODX recurrence risk from histopathology slides. Our proposed framework has two steps. First, it intelligently samples discriminative features from whole-slide histopathology images of breast cancer patients. Then, it automatically weights all features through a multiple instance learning model to predict the recurrence score at the slide level. On a dataset of H&E and Ki67 breast cancer resection whole slides images (WSIs) from 99 anonymized patients, the proposed framework achieved an overall AUC of 0.775 (68.9% and 71.1% accuracies for low and high risk) on H&E WSIs and overall AUC of 0.811 (80.8% and 79.2% accuracies for low and high risk) on Ki67 WSIs of breast cancer patients. Our findings provide strong evidence for automatically risk-stratify patients with a high degree of confidence. Our experiments reveal that the BCR-Net outperforms the state-of-the-art WSI classification models. Moreover, BCR-Net is highly efficient with low computational needs, making it practical to deploy in limited computational settings.

Deep learning identifies morphological patterns of homologous recombination deficiency in luminal breast cancers from whole slide images.

Project description:Homologous recombination DNA-repair deficiency (HRD) is becoming a well-recognized marker of platinum salt and polyADP-ribose polymerase inhibitor chemotherapies in ovarian and breast cancers. While large-scale screening for HRD using genomic markers is logistically and economically challenging, stained tissue slides are routinely acquired in clinical practice. With the objectives of providing a robust deep-learning method for HRD prediction from tissue slides and identifying related morphological phenotypes, we first show that digital pathology workflows are sensitive to potential biases in the training set, then we propose a method to overcome the influence of these biases, and we develop an interpretation method capable of identifying complex phenotypes. Application to our carefully curated in-house dataset allows us to predict HRD with high accuracy (area under the receiver-operator characteristics curve 0.86) and to identify morphological phenotypes related to HRD. In particular, the presence of laminated fibrosis and clear tumor cells associated with HRD open new hypotheses regarding its phenotypic impact.

Using deep learning to predict anti-PD-1 response in melanoma and lung cancer patients from histopathology images.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Recent studies showed that immune-checkpoint blockade (ICB) has significantly improved clinical outcomes of melanoma and lung cancer patients. However, only a small subset of patients can benefit from ICB. Deep learning has been successfully implemented in complementary clinical diagnosis. The aim of this study is to demonstrate the potential of deep learning to facilitate the prediction of anti-PD-1 response from H&E images directly. METHODS:In this study, 190 H&E slides of melanoma were segmented into 256?×?256 tiles which were used as the training set for the convolutional neural network (CNN). Additional 54 melanoma and 55 lung cancer H&E slides were collected as independent testing sets. FINDINGS:An AUC of 0.778(95% CI: 63.8%-90.5%) was achieved for 54 melanoma testing samples with 15(65.2%) responders and 23(74.2%) non-responders correctly classified. We also obtained an AUC of 0.645(95% CI: 49.4%-78.4%) for 55 lung cancer samples. INTERPRETATION:To our knowledge, this is the first study of using deep learning to determine patients' anti-PD-1 response from H&E slides directly. Our CNN model achieved the state-of-the-art performance and has the potential to screen ICB beneficial patients in routine clinical practice.

Deep learning predicts chromosomal instability from histopathology images.

Project description:Chromosomal instability (CIN) is a hallmark of human cancer yet not readily testable for patients with cancer in routine clinical setting. In this study, we sought to explore whether CIN status can be predicted using ubiquitously available hematoxylin and eosin histology through a deep learning-based model. When applied to a cohort of 1,010 patients with breast cancer (Training set: n = 858, Test set: n = 152) from The Cancer Genome Atlas where 485 patients have high CIN status, our model accurately classified CIN status, achieving an area under the curve of 0.822 with 81.2% sensitivity and 68.7% specificity in the test set. Patch-level predictions of CIN status suggested intra-tumor heterogeneity within slides. Moreover, presence of patches with high predicted CIN score within an entire slide was more predictive of clinical outcome than the average CIN score of the slide, thus underscoring the clinical importance of intra-tumor heterogeneity.

Diagnosing Melanomas in Dermoscopy Images Using Deep Learning.

Project description:When it comes to skin tumors and cancers, melanoma ranks among the most prevalent and deadly. With the advancement of deep learning and computer vision, it is now possible to quickly and accurately determine whether or not a patient has malignancy. This is significant since a prompt identification greatly decreases the likelihood of a fatal outcome. Artificial intelligence has the potential to improve healthcare in many ways, including melanoma diagnosis. In a nutshell, this research employed an Inception-V3 and InceptionResnet-V2 strategy for melanoma recognition. The feature extraction layers that were previously frozen were fine-tuned after the newly added top layers were trained. This study used data from the HAM10000 dataset, which included an unrepresentative sample of seven different forms of skin cancer. To fix the discrepancy, we utilized data augmentation. The proposed models outperformed the results of the previous investigation with an effectiveness of 0.89 for Inception-V3 and 0.91 for InceptionResnet-V2.
