Diagnosis of cervical precancerous lesions based on multimodal feature changes

Abstract

To realize the automatic diagnosis of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) cases by preacetic acid test and postacetic acid test colposcopy images, this paper proposes a method of cervical precancerous lesion diagnosis based on multimodal feature changes. First, the preacetic acid test and postacetic acid test colposcopy images were registered based on cross-correlation and projection transformation, and then the cervical region was extracted by the k-means clustering algorithm. Finally, a deep learning network was used to extract features and classify the preacetic acid test and postacetic acid test cervical images after registration. Finally, the proposed method achieves a classification accuracy of 86.3%, a sensitivity of 84.1%, and a specificity of 89.8% in 60 test cases. Experimental results show that this method can make better use of the multimodal features of colposcopy images and has lower requirements for medical staff in the process of data acquisition. It has certain clinical significance in cervical cancer precancerous lesion screening systems.
