Introduction

This is a simple framework for training neural networks to detect nodules in CT images. Training requires a json file (e.g. here) containing a list of CT images and the bounding boxes in each image. The model combines both CNN model and LSTM unit. The algorithm here is mainly refered to paper End-to-end people detection in crowded scenes.

The deep learning framewoek is based on TensorFlow(version 1.0.0) and some coding ideas are forked from the TensorBox project. Here I show heartfelt gratefulness. About nodule classfication method based on CNN transfer learning, you can refer to this paper.

Dicom and XML parsing

Parsing the lidc XML annotation and dicom files,see pylung and this blog.

>>> import dicom
>>> f = dicom.read_file('000001.dcm')
>>> print f

Training

First, install TensorFlow from source or pip (NB: source installs currently break threading on 0.11). Then run the training script CNN_LSTM/run.sh.Note that running on your own dataset should require modifying the CNN_LSTM/hypes/\*.json file.

confidence loss regression loss accuracy

Evaluation

There are two options for evaluation, an ipython notebook and a python script.

  • some test results

  • precision-recall curve

Other

  • Anatomy map

  • Parenchyma extraction

  • Pulmonary nodules form
