Deep Learning on Enhanced CT Images Can Predict the Muscular Invasiveness of Bladder Cancer.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Clinical treatment decision making of bladder cancer (BCa) relies on the absence or presence of muscle invasion and tumor staging. Deep learning (DL) is a novel technique in image analysis, but its potential for evaluating the muscular invasiveness of bladder cancer remains unclear. The purpose of this study was to develop and validate a DL model based on computed tomography (CT) images for prediction of muscle-invasive status of BCa.

Methods

A total of 441 BCa patients were retrospectively enrolled from two centers and were divided into development (n=183), tuning (n=110), internal validation (n=73) and external validation (n=75) cohorts. The model was built based on nephrographic phase images of preoperative CT urography. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were performed and the area under the ROC curve (AUC) for discrimination between muscle-invasive BCa and non-muscle-invasive BCa was calculated. The performance of the model was evaluated and compared with that of the subjective assessment by two radiologists.

Results

The DL model exhibited relatively good performance in all cohorts [AUC: 0.861 in the internal validation cohort, 0.791 in the external validation cohort] and outperformed the two radiologists. The model yielded a sensitivity of 0.733, a specificity of 0.810 in the internal validation cohort and a sensitivity of 0.710 and a specificity of 0.773 in the external validation cohort.

Conclusion

The proposed DL model based on CT images exhibited relatively good prediction ability of muscle-invasive status of BCa preoperatively, which may improve individual treatment of BCa.

Predicting Malignancy and Invasiveness of Pulmonary Subsolid Nodules on CT Images Using Deep Learning.

Project description:BackgroundTo develop and validate a deep learning-based model on CT images for the malignancy and invasiveness prediction of pulmonary subsolid nodules (SSNs).Materials and methodsThis study retrospectively collected patients with pulmonary SSNs treated by surgery in our hospital from 2012 to 2018. Postoperative pathology was used as the diagnostic reference standard. Three-dimensional convolutional neural network (3D CNN) models were constructed using preoperative CT images to predict the malignancy and invasiveness of SSNs. Then, an observer reader study conducted by two thoracic radiologists was used to compare with the CNN model. The diagnostic power of the models was evaluated with receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) analysis.ResultsA total of 2,614 patients were finally included and randomly divided for training (60.9%), validation (19.1%), and testing (20%). For the benign and malignant classification, the best 3D CNN model achieved a satisfactory AUC of 0.913 (95% CI: 0.885-0.940), sensitivity of 86.1%, and specificity of 83.8% at the optimal decision point, which outperformed all observer readers' performance (AUC: 0.846±0.031). For pre-invasive and invasive classification of malignant SSNs, the 3D CNN also achieved satisfactory AUC of 0.908 (95% CI: 0.877-0.939), sensitivity of 87.4%, and specificity of 80.8%.ConclusionThe deep-learning model showed its potential to accurately identify the malignancy and invasiveness of SSNs and thus can help surgeons make treatment decisions.

Muscular invasiveness in bladder cancer

Project description:Patients with bladder cancer need frequent controls over long follow-up time due to high recurrence rate and risk of conversion to muscle invasive cancer with poor prognosis. We identified cancer-related molecular signatures in apparently healthy bladder in patients with subsequent muscular invasiveness during follow-up. Global proteomics of the normal tissue biopsies revealed specific proteome fingerprints in these patients prior to subsequent muscular invasiveness. In these presumed normal samples, we detected modulations of proteins previously associated with different cancer types. This study indicates that analyzing apparently healthy tissue of a cancer-invaded organ may predict disease progression.

Deep learning classification of lung cancer histology using CT images.

Project description:Tumor histology is an important predictor of therapeutic response and outcomes in lung cancer. Tissue sampling for pathologist review is the most reliable method for histology classification, however, recent advances in deep learning for medical image analysis allude to the utility of radiologic data in further describing disease characteristics and for risk stratification. In this study, we propose a radiomics approach to predicting non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) tumor histology from non-invasive standard-of-care computed tomography (CT) data. We trained and validated convolutional neural networks (CNNs) on a dataset comprising 311 early-stage NSCLC patients receiving surgical treatment at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH), with a focus on the two most common histological types: adenocarcinoma (ADC) and Squamous Cell Carcinoma (SCC). The CNNs were able to predict tumor histology with an AUC of 0.71(p = 0.018). We also found that using machine learning classifiers such as k-nearest neighbors (kNN) and support vector machine (SVM) on CNN-derived quantitative radiomics features yielded comparable discriminative performance, with AUC of up to 0.71 (p = 0.017). Our best performing CNN functioned as a robust probabilistic classifier in heterogeneous test sets, with qualitatively interpretable visual explanations to its predictions. Deep learning based radiomics can identify histological phenotypes in lung cancer. It has the potential to augment existing approaches and serve as a corrective aid for diagnosticians.

Bladder Cancer Treatment Response Assessment in CT using Radiomics with Deep-Learning.

Project description:Cross-sectional X-ray imaging has become the standard for staging most solid organ malignancies. However, for some malignancies such as urinary bladder cancer, the ability to accurately assess local extent of the disease and understand response to systemic chemotherapy is limited with current imaging approaches. In this study, we explored the feasibility that radiomics-based predictive models using pre- and post-treatment computed tomography (CT) images might be able to distinguish between bladder cancers with and without complete chemotherapy responses. We assessed three unique radiomics-based predictive models, each of which employed different fundamental design principles ranging from a pattern recognition method via deep-learning convolution neural network (DL-CNN), to a more deterministic radiomics feature-based approach and then a bridging method between the two, utilizing a system which extracts radiomics features from the image patterns. Our study indicates that the computerized assessment using radiomics information from the pre- and post-treatment CT of bladder cancer patients has the potential to assist in assessment of treatment response.

Deep Learning Analysis of CT Images Reveals High-Grade Pathological Features to Predict Survival in Lung Adenocarcinoma.

Project description:We aimed to develop a deep learning (DL) model for predicting high-grade patterns in lung adenocarcinomas (ADC) and to assess the prognostic performance of model in advanced lung cancer patients who underwent neoadjuvant or definitive concurrent chemoradiation therapy (CCRT). We included 275 patients with 290 early lung ADCs from an ongoing prospective clinical trial in the training dataset, which we split into internal-training and internal-validation datasets. We constructed a diagnostic DL model of high-grade patterns of lung ADC considering both morphologic view of the tumor and context view of the area surrounding the tumor (MC3DN; morphologic-view context-view 3D network). Validation was performed on an independent dataset of 417 patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer who underwent neoadjuvant or definitive CCRT. The area under the curve value of the DL model was 0.8 for the prediction of high-grade histologic patterns such as micropapillary and solid patterns (MPSol). When our model was applied to the validation set, a high probability of MPSol was associated with worse overall survival (probability of MPSol >0.5 vs. <0.5; 5-year OS rate 56.1% vs. 70.7%), indicating that our model could predict the clinical outcomes of advanced lung cancer patients. The subgroup with a high probability of MPSol estimated by the DL model showed a 1.76-fold higher risk of death (HR 1.76, 95% CI 1.16-2.68). Our DL model can be useful in estimating high-grade histologic patterns in lung ADCs and predicting clinical outcomes of patients with advanced lung cancer who underwent neoadjuvant or definitive CCRT.

Fully automated deep learning based auto-contouring of liver segments and spleen on contrast-enhanced CT images.

Project description:Manual delineation of liver segments on computed tomography (CT) images for primary/secondary liver cancer (LC) patients is time-intensive and prone to inter/intra-observer variability. Therefore, we developed a deep-learning-based model to auto-contour liver segments and spleen on contrast-enhanced CT (CECT) images. We trained two models using 3d patch-based attention U-Net ([Formula: see text] and 3d full resolution of nnU-Net ([Formula: see text] to determine the best architecture ([Formula: see text]. BA was used with vessels ([Formula: see text] and spleen ([Formula: see text] to assess the impact on segment contouring. Models were trained, validated, and tested on 160 ([Formula: see text]), 40 ([Formula: see text]), 33 ([Formula: see text]), 25 (CCH) and 20 (CPVE) CECT of LC patients. [Formula: see text] outperformed [Formula: see text] across all segments with median differences in Dice similarity coefficients (DSC) ranging 0.03-0.05 (p < 0.05). [Formula: see text], and [Formula: see text] were not statistically different (p > 0.05), however, both were slightly better than [Formula: see text] by DSC up to 0.02. The final model, [Formula: see text], showed a mean DSC of 0.89, 0.82, 0.88, 0.87, 0.96, and 0.95 for segments 1, 2, 3, 4, 5-8, and spleen, respectively on entire test sets. Qualitatively, more than 85% of cases showed a Likert score [Formula: see text] 3 on test sets. Our final model provides clinically acceptable contours of liver segments and spleen which are usable in treatment planning.

FissureNet: A Deep Learning Approach For Pulmonary Fissure Detection in CT Images.

Project description:Pulmonary fissure detection in computed tomography (CT) is a critical component for automatic lobar segmentation. The majority of fissure detection methods use feature descriptors that are hand-crafted, low-level, and have local spatial extent. The design of such feature detectors is typically targeted toward normal fissure anatomy, yielding low sensitivity to weak, and abnormal fissures that are common in clinical data sets. Furthermore, local features commonly suffer from low specificity, as the complex textures in the lung can be indistinguishable from the fissure when the global context is not considered. We propose a supervised discriminative learning framework for simultaneous feature extraction and classification. The proposed framework, called FissureNet, is a coarse-to-fine cascade of two convolutional neural networks. The coarse-to-fine strategy alleviates the challenges associated with training a network to segment a thin structure that represents a small fraction of the image voxels. FissureNet was evaluated on a cohort of 3706 subjects with inspiration and expiration 3DCT scans from the COPDGene clinical trial and a cohort of 20 subjects with 4DCT scans from a lung cancer clinical trial. On both data sets, FissureNet showed superior performance compared with a deep learning approach using the U-Net architecture and a Hessian-based fissure detection method in terms of area under the precision-recall curve (PR-AUC). The overall PR-AUC for FissureNet, U-Net, and Hessian on the COPDGene (lung cancer) data set was 0.980 (0.966), 0.963 (0.937), and 0.158 (0.182), respectively. On a subset of 30 COPDGene scans, FissureNet was compared with a recently proposed advanced fissure detection method called derivative of sticks (DoS) and showed superior performance with a PR-AUC of 0.991 compared with 0.668 for DoS.

Evaluation of deep learning methods for parotid gland segmentation from CT images.

Project description:The segmentation of organs at risk is a crucial and time-consuming step in radiotherapy planning. Good automatic methods can significantly reduce the time clinicians have to spend on this task. Due to its variability in shape and low contrast to surrounding structures, segmenting the parotid gland is challenging. Motivated by the recent success of deep learning, we study the use of two-dimensional (2-D), 2-D ensemble, and three-dimensional (3-D) U-Nets for segmentation. The mean Dice similarity to ground truth is ?0.83 for all three models. A patch-based approach for class balancing seems promising for false-positive reduction. The 2-D ensemble and 3-D U-Net are applied to the test data of the 2015 MICCAI challenge on head and neck autosegmentation. Both deep learning methods generalize well onto independent data (Dice 0.865 and 0.88) and are superior to a selection of model- and atlas-based methods with respect to the Dice coefficient. Since appropriate reference annotations are essential for training but often difficult and expensive to obtain, it is important to know how many samples are needed for training. We evaluate the performance after training with different-sized training sets and observe no significant increase in the Dice coefficient for more than 250 training cases.

Diagnosis of COVID-19 using CT scan images and deep learning techniques.

Project description:Early diagnosis of the coronavirus disease in 2019 (COVID-19) is essential for controlling this pandemic. COVID-19 has been spreading rapidly all over the world. There is no vaccine available for this virus yet. Fast and accurate COVID-19 screening is possible using computed tomography (CT) scan images. The deep learning techniques used in the proposed method is based on a convolutional neural network (CNN). Our manuscript focuses on differentiating the CT scan images of COVID-19 and non-COVID 19 CT using different deep learning techniques. A self-developed model named CTnet-10 was designed for the COVID-19 diagnosis, having an accuracy of 82.1%. Also, other models that we tested are DenseNet-169, VGG-16, ResNet-50, InceptionV3, and VGG-19. The VGG-19 proved to be superior with an accuracy of 94.52% as compared to all other deep learning models. Automated diagnosis of COVID-19 from the CT scan pictures can be used by the doctors as a quick and efficient method for COVID-19 screening.
