Deep Learning-Based Chest CT Image Features in Diagnosis of Lung Cancer

Abstract

This study was to evaluate the diagnostic value of deep learning-optimized chest CT in the patients with lung cancer. 90 patients who were diagnosed with lung cancer by surgery or puncture in hospital were selected as the research subjects. The Mask Region Convolutional Neural Network (Mask-RCNN) model was a typical end-to-end image segmentation model, and Dual Path Network (DPN) was used in nodule detection. The results showed that the accuracy of DPN algorithm model in detecting lung lesions in lung cancer patients was 88.74%, the accuracy of CT diagnosis of lung cancer was 88.37%, the sensitivity was 82.91%, and the specificity was 87.43%. Deep learning-based CT examination combined with serum tumor detection, factoring into Neurospecific enolase (N S E), cytokeratin 19 fragment (CYFRA21), Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) antigen, improved the accuracy to 97.94%, the sensitivity to 98.12%, and the specificity to 100%, all showing significant differences ( $P<0.05$ ). In conclusion, this study provides a scientific basis for improving the diagnostic efficiency of CT imaging in lung cancer and theoretical support for subsequent lung cancer diagnosis and treatment.
