Diagnosis after Zooming in: A Multi-label Classification Model by Imitating Doctor Reading Habits to Diagnose Brain Diseases

Abstract

Purpose: Computed tomography (CT) has the advantages of being low cost and noninvasive and is a primary diagnostic method for brain diseases. However, it is a challenge for junior radiologists to diagnose CT images accurately and comprehensively. It is necessary to build a system that can help doctors diagnose and provide an explanation of the predictions. Despite the success of deep learning algorithms in the field of medical image analysis, the task of brain disease classification still faces challenges: Researchers lack attention to complex manual labeling requirements and the incompleteness of prediction explanations. More importantly, most studies only measure the performance of the algorithm, but do not measure the effectiveness of the algorithm in the actual diagnosis of doctors. Methods: In this paper, we propose a model called DrCT2 that can detect brain diseases without using image-level labels and provide a more comprehensive explanation at both the slice and sequence levels. This model achieves reliable performance by imitating human expert reading habits: targeted scaling of primary images from the full slice scans and observation of suspicious lesions for diagnosis. We evaluated our model on two open-access data sets: CQ500 and the RSNA Intracranial Hemorrhage Detection Challenge. In addition, we defined three tasks to comprehensively evaluate model interpretability by measuring whether the algorithm can select key images with lesions. To verify the algorithm from the perspective of practical application, three junior radiologists were invited to participate in the experiments, comparing the effects before and after human-computer cooperation in different aspects. Results: The method achieved F1-scores of 0.9370 on CQ500 and 0.8700 on the RSNA data set. The results show that our model has good interpretability under the premise of good performance. Human radiologist evaluation experiments have proven that our model can effectively improve the accuracy of the diagnosis and improve efficiency. Conclusions: We proposed a model that can simultaneously detect multiple brain diseases.The report generated by the model can assist doctors in avoiding missed diagnoses, and it has good clinical application value.
