Tumor otak menjadi salah satu penyakit yang paling mematikan, salah satu jenis yang paling banyak ditemukan adalah glioma sekitar 6 dari 100.000 pasien adalah penderita glioma. Citra digital melalui Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) merupakan salah satu metode untuk membantu dokter dalam menganalisa dan mengklasifikasikan jenis tumor otak. Namun, klasifikasi secara manual membutuhkan waktu yang lama dan memiliki resiko kesalahan yang tinggi, untuk itu dibutuhkan suatu cara otomatis dan akurat dalam melakukan klasifikasi citra MRI. Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) menjadi salah satu solusi dalam melakukan klasifikasi otomatis dalam citra MRI. CNN merupakan algoritma deep learning yang memiliki kemampuan untuk belajar sendiri dari kasus kasus sebelumnya. Dan dari penelitian yang telah dilakukan, diperoleh hasil bahwa CNN mampu dalam menyelesaikan klasifikasi tumor otak dengan akurasi yang tinggi. Peningkatan akurasi diperoleh dengan mengembangkan algoritma CNN baik melalui menentukan nilai kernel dan/atau fungsi aktivasi.

BACKGROUND The radiological differential diagnosis between tumor recurrence and radiation-induced necrosis (ie, pseudoprogression) is of paramount importance in the management of glioma patients. OBJECTIVE This research aims to develop a deep learning methodology for automated differentiation of tumor recurrence from radiation necrosis based on routine magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans. METHODS In this retrospective study, 146 patients who underwent radiation therapy after glioma resection and presented with suspected recurrent lesions at the follow-up MRI examination were selected for analysis. Routine MRI scans were acquired from each patient, including T1, T2, and gadolinium-contrast-enhanced T1 sequences. Of those cases, 96 (65.8%) were confirmed as glioma recurrence on postsurgical pathological examination, while 50 (34.2%) were diagnosed as necrosis. A light-weighted deep neural network (DNN) (ie, efficient radionecrosis neural network [ERN-Net]) was proposed to learn radiological features of gliomas and necrosis from MRI scans. Sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, and area under the curve (AUC) were used to evaluate performance of the model in both image-wise and subject-wise classifications. Preoperative diagnostic performance of the model was also compared to that of the state-of-the-art DNN models and five experienced neurosurgeons. RESULTS DNN models based on multimodal MRI outperformed single-modal models. ERN-Net achieved the highest AUC in both image-wise (0.915) and subject-wise (0.958) classification tasks. The evaluated DNN models achieved an average sensitivity of 0.947 (SD 0.033), specificity of 0.817 (SD 0.075), and accuracy of 0.903 (SD 0.026), which were significantly better than the tested neurosurgeons (<i>P</i>=.02 in sensitivity and <i>P</i>&lt;.001 in specificity and accuracy). CONCLUSIONS Deep learning offers a useful computational tool for the differential diagnosis between recurrent gliomas and necrosis. The proposed ERN-Net model, a simple and effective DNN model, achieved excellent performance on routine MRI scans and showed a high clinical applicability.

Abstract: A Brain tumor is one aggressive disease. An estimated more than 84,000 people will receive a primary brain tumor diagnosis in 2021 and an estimated 18,600 people will die from a malignant brain tumor (brain cancer) in 2021.[8] The best technique to detect brain tumors is by using Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). More than any other cancer, brain tumors can have lasting and life-altering physical, cognitive, and psychological impacts on a patient’s life and hence faster diagnosis and best treatment plan should be devised to improve the life expectancy and well-being of these patients. Neural networks have shown colossal accuracy in image classification and segmentation problems. In this paper, we propose comparative studies of various deep learning models based on different types of Neural Networks(ANN, CNN, TL) to firstly identify brain tumors and then classify them into Benign Tumor, Malignant Tumor or Pituitary Tumor. The data set used holds 3190 images on T1-weighted contrast-enhanced images which were cleaned and augmented. The best ANN model concluded with an accuracy of 78% and the best CNN model consisting of 3 convolution layers had an accuracy of 90%. The VGG16(retrained on the dataset) model surpasses other ANN, CNN, TL models for multi-class tumor classification. This proposed network achieves significantly better performance with a validation accuracy of 94% and an F1-Score of 91. Keywords: Artificial Neural Network(ANN), Convolution Neural Network (CNN), Transfer Learning(TL), Magnetic Resonance Imaging(MRI.)

Objectives. To evaluate the application of a deep learning architecture, based on the convolutional neural network (CNN) technique, to perform automatic tumor segmentation of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). Materials and Methods. In this prospective study, 87 MRI containing tumor regions were acquired from newly diagnosed NPC patients. These 87 MRI were augmented to >60,000 images. The proposed CNN network is composed of two phases: feature representation and scores map reconstruction. We designed a stepwise scheme to train our CNN network. To evaluate the performance of our method, we used case-by-case leave-one-out cross-validation (LOOCV). The ground truth of tumor contouring was acquired by the consensus of two experienced radiologists. Results. The mean values of dice similarity coefficient, percent match, and their corresponding ratio with our method were 0.89±0.05, 0.90±0.04, and 0.84±0.06, respectively, all of which were better than reported values in the similar studies. Conclusions. We successfully established a segmentation method for NPC based on deep learning in contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging. Further clinical trials with dedicated algorithms are warranted.
