Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Liver cancer is one of the leading causes of death world-wide. Computer-aided diagnosis plays an important role in liver lesion diagnosis (classification). Recently, several deep learning-based computer-aided diagnosis systems have been proposed for classification of liver lesions and their effectiveness have been demonstrated. The main challenge in deep learning-based medical image classification is the lack of annotated training samples. In this paper, we demonstrated that fine-tuning can significantly improve the liver lesion classification accuracy especially for the small training samples. We used the residual convolutional neural network (ResNet), which is the state-of-the-art network, as our baseline network for focal liver lesion classification on multi-phase CT images. The fine-tuning significantly improved the classification accuracy from 83.7% to 91.2%. The classification accuracy (91.2%) is higher than the accuracy of the state-of-the-art methods.
