Deep learning for fully automatic detection, segmentation, and Gleason grade estimation of prostate cancer in multiparametric magnetic resonance images.

ABSTRACT: Although the emergence of multi-parametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) has had a profound impact on the diagnosis of prostate cancers (PCa), analyzing these images remains still complex even for experts. This paper proposes a fully automatic system based on Deep Learning that performs localization, segmentation and Gleason grade group (GGG) estimation of PCa lesions from prostate mpMRIs. It uses 490 mpMRIs for training/validation and 75 for testing from two different datasets: ProstateX and Valencian Oncology Institute Foundation. In the test set, it achieves an excellent lesion-level AUC/sensitivity/specificity for the GGG[Formula: see text]2 significance criterion of 0.96/1.00/0.79 for the ProstateX dataset, and 0.95/1.00/0.80 for the IVO dataset. At a patient level, the results a
