Transitional zone prostate cancer: Performance of texture-based machine learning and image-based deep learning.

ABSTRACT: This study is aimed to explore the performance of texture-based machine learning and image-based deep-learning for enhancing detection of Transitional-zone prostate cancer (TZPCa) in the background of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), using a one-to-one correlation between prostatectomy-based pathologically proven lesion and MRI. Seventy patients confirmed as TZPCa and twenty-nine patients confirmed as BPH without TZPCa by radical prostatectomy. For texture analysis, a radiologist drew the region of interest (ROI) for the pathologically correlated TZPCa and the surrounding BPH on T2WI. Significant features were selected using Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO), trained by 3 types of machine learning algorithms (logistic regression [LR], support vector machine [SVM],
