THE DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM OF LYMPH NODE METASTASIS IN THYROID CANCER USING DEEP LEARNING AND METHOD THEREOF

摘要

A method of operating a system for diagnosing lymph node metastasis of thyroid cancer using deep learning according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a pre-processing step in which a multi-dimensional mask image is generated from a radioiodine plane image, and the residual tissue ( Remnant tissue) or lymph node metastasis (Lymph Node metastasis) is calculated, the pre-processed radioiodine plane image and the neural network (Neural Network) learning model is applied to the calculated likelihood of the learning is performed and diagnosing whether thyroid cancer has metastasized to a lymph node based on a result of neural network learning.
