CNN-Based Cancer Image Diagnosis: Current Progress and Future Directions

Abstract

Abstract. With the development of deep learning technology, CNN (Convolutional Neural Network) models have shown great value in medical image analysis, especially in diagnosing early lung cancer, breast cancer, and brain tumors. In this study, we recall and organize the application and progress of CNN models in the field of cancer and tumor diagnosis in the past five years to provide a theoretical basis and reference for related researchers. This article introduces the principles of different CNN cancer diagnostic models and compares and analyzes their results, and ultimately finds that these models have significant advantages in improving the accuracy and efficiency of cancer diagnosis, but at the same time, there are also problems such as too much reliance on large datasets, high model complexity, and poor generalization ability. In the future, we can consider optimizing the performance of CNN network models, enhancing the generalization ability of the models, and developing data enhancement techniques on this basis, so that CNN models can be better applied in the field of cancer diagnosis.
