A systematic Review of YOLO for medical Object Detection (2018 - 2023)

A Comprehensive Systematic Review of YOLO for Medical Object Detection (2018 to 2023)

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the fifth most common malignancy and the third leading cause of cancer‐related death worldwide. HCC exhibits strong inter‐tumor heterogeneity, with different biological characteristics closely associated with prognosis. In addition, patients with HCC often distribute at different stages and require diverse treatment options at each stage. Due to the variability in tumor sensitivity to different therapies, determining the optimal treatment approach can be challenging for clinicians prior to treatment. Artificial intelligence (AI) technology, including radiomics and deep learning approaches, has emerged as a unique opportunity to improve the spectrum of HCC clinical care by predicting biological characteristics and prognosis in the medical imaging field. The radiomics approach utilizes handcrafted features derived from specific mathematical formulas to construct various machine‐learning models for medical applications. In terms of the deep learning approach, convolutional neural network models are developed to achieve high classification performance based on automatic feature extraction from images. Magnetic resonance imaging offers the advantage of superior tissue resolution and functional information. This comprehensive evaluation plays a vital role in the accurate assessment and effective treatment planning for HCC patients. Recent studies have applied radiomics and deep learning approaches to develop AI‐enabled models to improve accuracy in predicting biological characteristics and prognosis, such as microvascular invasion and tumor recurrence. Although AI‐enabled models have demonstrated promising potential in HCC with biological characteristics and prognosis prediction with high performance, one of the biggest challenges, interpretability, has hindered their implementation in clinical practice. In the future, continued research is needed to improve the interpretability of AI‐enabled models, including aspects such as domain knowledge, novel algorithms, and multi‐dimension data sources. Overcoming these challenges would allow AI‐enabled models to significantly impact the care provided to HCC patients, ultimately leading to their deployment for clinical use.

Artificial Intelligence in Cardiovascular CT and MR Imaging

The adoption of “artificial intelligence (AI) in drug discovery”, where AI is used in the process of pharmaceutical research and development, is progressing. By using the ability to process large amounts of data, which is a characteristic of AI, and achieving advanced data analysis and inference, there are benefits such as shortening development time, reducing costs, and reducing the workload of researchers. There are various problems in drug development, but the following two issues are particularly problematic: (1) the yearly increases in development time and cost of drugs and (2) the difficulty in finding highly accurate target genes. Therefore, screening and simulation using AI are expected. Researchers have high demands for data collection and the utilization of infrastructure for AI analysis. In the field of drug discovery, for example, interest in data use increases with the amount of chemical or biological data available. The application of AI in drug discovery is becoming more active due to improvement in computer processing power and the development and spread of machine-learning frameworks, including deep learning. To evaluate performance, various statistical indices have been introduced. However, the factors affected in performance have not been revealed completely. In this study, we summarized and reviewed the applications of deep learning for drug discovery with BigData.

Applications of Deep Learning for Drug Discovery Systems with BigData

(1) Introduction: Computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) play an important role in the diagnosis and evaluation of spinal diseases, especially degenerative spinal diseases. MRI is mainly used to diagnose most spinal diseases because it shows a higher resolution than CT to distinguish lesions of the spinal canals and intervertebral discs. When it is inevitable for CT to be selected instead of MR in evaluating spinal disease, evaluation of spinal disease may be limited. In these cases, it is very helpful to diagnose spinal disease with MR images synthesized with CT images. (2) Objective: To create synthetic lumbar magnetic resonance (MR) images from computed tomography (CT) scans using generative adversarial network (GAN) models and assess how closely the synthetic images resembled the true images using visual Turing tests (VTTs). (3) Material and Methods: Overall, 285 patients aged ≥ 40 years who underwent lumbar CT and MRI were enrolled. Based on axial CT and T2-weighted axial MR images from 285 patients, an image synthesis model using a GAN was trained using three algorithms (unsupervised, semi-supervised, and supervised methods). Furthermore, VTT to determine how similar the synthetic lumbar MR images generated from lumbar CT axial images were to the true lumbar MR axial images were conducted with 59 patients who were not included in the model training. For the VTT, we designed an evaluation form comprising 600 randomly distributed axial images (150 true and 450 synthetic images from unsupervised, semi-supervised, and supervised methods). Four readers judged the authenticity of each image and chose their first- and second-choice candidates for the true image. In addition, for the three models, structural similarities (SSIM) were evaluated and the peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR) was compared among the three methods. (4) Results: The mean accuracy for the selection of true images for all four readers for their first choice was 52.0% (312/600). The accuracies of determining the true image for each reader’s first and first + second choices, respectively, were as follows: reader 1, 51.3% and 78.0%; reader 2, 38.7% and 62.0%, reader 3, 69.3% and 84.0%, and reader 4, 48.7% and 70.7%. In the case of synthetic images chosen as first and second choices, supervised algorithm-derived images were the most often selected (supervised, 118/600 first and 164/600 second; semi-supervised, 90/600 and 144/600; and unsupervised, 80/600 and 114/600). For image quality, the supervised algorithm received the best score (PSNR: 15.987 ± 1.039, SSIM: 0.518 ± 0.042). (5) Conclusion: This was the pilot study to apply GAN to synthesize lumbar spine MR images from CT images and compare training algorithms of the GAN. Based on VTT, the axial MR images synthesized from lumbar CT using GAN were fairly realistic and the supervised training algorithm was found to provide the closest image to true images.

Lumbar Spine Computed Tomography to Magnetic Resonance Imaging Synthesis Using Generative Adversarial Network: Visual Turing Test

This study aimed to develop a screening model for rotator cuff tear detection in all three planes of routine shoulder MRI using a deep neural network. A total of 794 shoulder MRI scans (374 men and 420 women; aged 59 ± 11 years) were utilized. Three musculoskeletal radiologists labeled the rotator cuff tear. The YOLO v8 rotator cuff tear detection model was then trained; training was performed with all imaging planes simultaneously and with axial, coronal, and sagittal images separately. The performances of the models were evaluated and compared using receiver operating curves and the area under the curve (AUC). The AUC was the highest when using all imaging planes (0.94; p < 0.05). Among a single imaging plane, the axial plane showed the best performance (AUC: 0.71), followed by the sagittal (AUC: 0.70) and coronal (AUC: 0.68) imaging planes. The sensitivity and accuracy were also the highest in the model with all-plane training (0.98 and 0.96, respectively). Thus, deep-learning-based automatic rotator cuff tear detection can be useful for detecting torn areas in various regions of the rotator cuff in all three imaging planes.

Background This study aimed to assess the diagnostic feasibility of radiomics analysis based on magnetic resonance (MR)-proton density fat fraction (PDFF) for grading hepatic steatosis in patients with suspected non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Methods This retrospective study included 106 patients with suspected NAFLD who underwent a hepatic parenchymal biopsy. MR-PDFF and MR spectroscopy were performed on all patients using a 3.0-T scanner. Following whole-volume segmentation of the MR-PDFF images, 833 radiomic features were analyzed using a commercial program. Radiologic features were analyzed, including median and mean values of the multiple regions of interest and variable clinical features. A random forest regressor was used to extract the important radiomic, radiologic, and clinical features. The model was trained using 20 repeated 10-fold cross-validations to classify the NAFLD steatosis grade. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) was evaluated using a classifier to diagnose steatosis grades. Results The levels of pathological hepatic steatosis were classified as low-grade steatosis (grade, 0–1; n = 82) and high-grade steatosis (grade, 2–3; n = 24). Fifteen important features were extracted from the radiomic analysis, with the three most important being wavelet-LLL neighboring gray tone difference matrix coarseness, original first-order mean, and 90th percentile. The MR spectroscopy mean value was extracted as a more important feature than the MR-PDFF mean or median in radiologic measures. Alanine aminotransferase has been identified as the most important clinical feature. The AUROC of the classifier using radiomics was comparable to that of radiologic measures (0.94 ± 0.09 and 0.96 ± 0.08, respectively). Conclusion MR-PDFF-derived radiomics may provide a comparable alternative for grading hepatic steatosis in patients with suspected NAFLD.

Radiomics Analysis of Magnetic Resonance Proton Density Fat Fraction for the Diagnosis of Hepatic Steatosis in Patients With Suspected Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease

Our comprehension of interstitial cystitis/painful bladder syndrome (IC/PBS) has evolved over time. The term painful bladder syndrome, preferred by the International Continence Society, is characterized as “a syndrome marked by suprapubic pain during bladder filling, alongside increased daytime and nighttime frequency, in the absence of any proven urinary infection or other pathology.” The diagnosis of IC/PBS primarily relies on symptoms of urgency/frequency and bladder/pelvic pain. The exact pathogenesis of IC/PBS remains a mystery, but it is postulated to be multifactorial. Theories range from bladder urothelial abnormalities, mast cell degranulation in the bladder, bladder inflammation, to altered bladder innervation. Therapeutic strategies encompass patient education, dietary and lifestyle modifications, medication, intravesical therapy, and surgical intervention. This article delves into the diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis prediction of IC/PBS, presenting the latest research findings, artificial intelligence technology applications in diagnosing major diseases in IC/PBS, and emerging treatment alternatives.

Intravesical Bladder Treatment and Deep Learning Applications to Improve Irritative Voiding Symptoms Caused by Interstitial Cystitis: A Literature Review

Background To propose fully automatic segmentation of left atrium using active learning with limited dataset in late gadolinium enhancement in cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (LGE-CMRI). Methods An active learning framework was developed to segment the left atrium in cardiac LGE-CMRI. Patients (n = 98) with atrial fibrillation from the Korea University Anam Hospital were enrolled. First, 20 cases were delineated for ground truths by two experts and used for training a draft model. Second, the 20 cases from the first step and 50 new cases, corrected in a human-in-the-loop manner after predicting using the draft model, were used to train the next model; all 98 cases (70 cases from the second step and 28 new cases) were trained. An additional 20 LGE-CMRI were evaluated in each step. Results The Dice coefficients for the three steps were 0.85 ± 0.06, 0.89 ± 0.02, and 0.90 ± 0.02, respectively. The biases (95% confidence interval) in the Bland-Altman plots of each step were 6.36% (−14.90–27.61), 6.21% (−9.62–22.03), and 2.68% (−8.57–13.93). Deep active learning-based annotation times were 218 ± 31 seconds, 36.70 ± 18 seconds, and 36.56 ± 15 seconds, respectively. Conclusion Deep active learning reduced annotation time and enabled efficient training on limited LGE-CMRI.
