Abstract

Worldwide, more than 1.5 million deaths are occur due to liver cancer every year. The use of computed tomography (CT) for early detection of liver cancer could save millions of lives per year. There is also an urgent need for a computerized method to interpret, detect and analyze CT scans reliably, easily, and correctly. However, precise segmentation of minute tumors is a difficult task because of variation in the shape, intensity, size, low contrast of the tumor, and the adjacent tissues of the liver. To address these concerns, a model comprised of three parts: synthetic image generation, localization, and segmentation, is proposed. An optimized generative adversarial network (GAN) is utilized for generation of synthetic images. The generated images are localized by using the improved localization model, in which deep features are extracted from pre-trained Resnet-50 models and fed into a YOLOv3 detector as an input. The proposed modified model localizes and classifies the minute liver tumor with 0.99 mean average precision (mAp). The third part is segmentation, in which pre-trained Inceptionresnetv2 employed as a base-Network of Deeplabv3 and subsequently is trained on fine-tuned parameters with annotated ground masks. The experiments reflect that the proposed approach has achieved greater than 95% accuracy in the testing phase and it is proven that, in comparison to the recently published work in this domain, this research has localized and segmented the liver and minute liver tumor with more accuracy.

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.
