Abstract
Deep learning and machine learning provide more consistent tools and powerful functions for recognition, classification, reconstruction, noise reduction, quantification and segmentation in biomedical image analysis. Some breakthroughs. Recently, some applications of deep learning and machine learning for low-dose optimization in computed tomography have been developed. Due to reconstruction and processing technology, it has become crucial to develop architectures and/or methods based on deep learning algorithms to minimize radiation during computed tomography scan inspections. This chapter is an extension work done by Alla et al. in 2020 and explain that work very well. This chapter introduces the deep learning for computed tomography scan low-dose optimization, shows examples described in the literature, briefly discusses new methods for computed tomography scan image processing, and provides conclusions. We propose a pipeline for low-dose computed tomography scan image reconstruction based on the literature. Our proposed pipeline relies on deep learning and big data technology using Spark Framework. We will discuss with the pipeline proposed in the literature to finally derive the efficiency and importance of our pipeline. A big data architecture using computed tomography images for low-dose optimization is proposed. The proposed architecture relies on deep learning and allows us to develop effective and appropriate methods to process dose optimization with computed tomography scan images. The real realization of the image denoising pipeline shows us that we can reduce the radiation dose and use the pipeline we recommend to improve the quality of the captured image.
Highlights
Machine Learning (ML) technics are widely used in medical imaging in the form of many successful optimization, clustering, prediction and classifier algorithms
A highly flexible ML method called deep learning (DL) has emerged as a disruptive technology to improve the performance of existing ML methods and solve previously difficult problems [2]
We mainly focus on the dose optimization in pediatric skull scans using convolutional neural network (CNN) for DL and the image processing performed in [4]
Summary
Machine Learning (ML) technics are widely used in medical imaging in the form of many successful optimization, clustering, prediction and classifier algorithms. The main problem of CT scans is the optimization and minimization of radiation dose during the examination, especially in pediatric skull scans. Because the radiosensitivity is much higher than that of adults, patient-specific dosimetry has aroused great interest in pediatric skull applications. This is because children have a higher risk of cancer compared with adults receiving the same dose [9]. The main problem with low-dose CT is image noise and the quality of the results obtained. To overcome this shortcoming, DL with a convolutional neural network (CNN) algorithm is used. DL can improve the image quality during low-dose CT skull scans
