Deep Learning for Diagnosis of Paranasal Sinusitis Using Multi-View Radiographs.

ABSTRACT: Accurate image interpretation of Waters' and Caldwell view radiographs used for sinusitis screening is challenging. Therefore, we developed a deep learning algorithm for diagnosing frontal, ethmoid, and maxillary sinusitis on both Waters' and Caldwell views. The datasets were selected for the training and validation set (n = 1403, sinusitis% = 34.3%) and the test set (n = 132, sinusitis% = 29.5%) by temporal separation. The algorithm can simultaneously detect and classify each paranasal sinus using both Waters' and Caldwell views without manual cropping. Single- and multi-view models were compared. Our proposed algorithm satisfactorily diagnosed frontal, ethmoid, and maxillary sinusitis on both Waters' and Caldwell views (area under the curve (AUC), 0.71 (95% confidence interval, 0.62-0.80
