A SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR AUTOMATED LABELING AND ANNOTATING UNSTRUCTURED MEDICAL DATASETS

摘要

Supervised and unsupervised learning schemes may be used to automatically label medical images for use in deep learning applications. Large labeled datasets may be generated from a small initial training set using an iterative snowball sampling scheme. A machine learning powered automatic organ classifier for imaging datasets, such as CT datasets, with a deep convolutional neural network (CNN) followed by an organ dose calculation is also provided. This technique can be used for patient-specific organ dose estimation since the locations and sizes of organs for each patient can be calculated independently.
