Deep learning model improves radiologist diagnostic performance in colon cancer screening
A study by the Technical University of Munich researchers evaluated the use of a deep learning algorithm to differentiate between colon cancer and acute diverticulitis on CT images and its impact on radiologists’ performance. The 3-D convolutional neural network reached a sensitivity of 83.3% and specificity of 86.6% compared to the average reader sensitivity of…
