Abstract

Abstract Convolutional neural networks, are one of the most representative deep learning models. CNNs were extensively used in many aspects of medical image analysis, allowing for great progress in computer-aided diagnosis in recent years. In this paper, we provide a survey on convolutional neural networks in medical image analysis. First, we review the commonly used CNNs in medical image processing, including AlexNet, GoogleNet, ResNet, R-CNN, and FCNN. Then, we present an overview of the use of CNNs, for image classification, segmentation, detection, and other tasks such as registration, content-based image retrieval, image generation and enhancement, in some typical medical diagnosis areas such as brain, breast, and abdominal. Finally, we discuss the remaining challenges of CNNs in medical image analysis, and accordingly we present some ideas for future research directions.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
