Abstract
This study aimed to analyze the diagnostic value of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) combined with computed tomography (CT) based on the improved algorithm for acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) combined with spinal tuberculosis, so as to provide an effective reference theory for the clinical application of imaging diagnosis. The ResNet and Inception network structure were combined to form an improved convolutional neural grid classification (CNGC) algorithm. The improved algorithm was applied to AIDS patients with spinal tuberculosis to evaluate its diagnostic effect and value. 50 patients with AIDS and spinal tuberculosis and 50 patients with spinal tumors were selected for MRI and CT scans. The results showed that the accuracy, specificity, and sensitivity of the improved ResNet-Inception algorithm were much higher than those of the ResNet18 and GoogLeNet algorithms. In addition, compared with the training losses of ResNet18 and GoogLeNet algorithms that converged after 700 times, the ResNet-Inception algorithm only required 350 times to achieve convergence. Based on the improved ResNet-Inception algorithm, the false positive rate (FPR) of AIDS combined with spinal tuberculosis in imaging examinations was about 4%, which was greatly lower than that of the other two traditional algorithms ( P < 0.05 ). It can be seen that the improved ResNet-Inception algorithm was more valuable than traditional algorithms for MRI combined with CT in the diagnosis of AIDS combined with spinal tuberculosis and showed great clinical value for the diagnosis of the disease and the differential diagnosis of spinal tumors.
Highlights
Acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) is caused by human immunodeficiency virus infection and belongs to the immune system deficiency syndrome dominated by T-cell immunodeficiency [1, 2]. e immune system of AIDS patients is low, and they are very likely to be infected with other diseases [3, 4]
One-third of AIDS patients worldwide die from spinal tuberculosis, and tuberculosis has surpassed AIDS to become the infectious disease with the most death pathology in the world. e dual infection of AIDS and tuberculosis is a process of mutual exacerbation of the disease process, which leads to rapid death. e death rate of AIDS combined with spinal tuberculosis is as high as 80%. erefore, the accurate diagnosis and examination of the disease are extremely important [25, 26]
An improved algorithm was proposed based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) combined with computed tomography (CT) to diagnose and check AIDS combined with spinal tuberculosis. is improved algorithm combined the ResNet and Inception network structures as well as the stem, SE-block, and reduction to form an improved convolutional neural grid classification (CNGC). e results showed that the accuracy, specificity, and sensitivity of the Inception-ResNet classification algorithm were 96.7%, 98.4%, and 96.3%, respectively; those of the GoogLeNet algorithm were 94.9%, 97.9%, and 93.9%, respectively; and those of the ResNet algorithm were 94.7%, 96.7%, and 94.9%, respectively
Summary
Acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) is caused by human immunodeficiency virus infection and belongs to the immune system deficiency syndrome dominated by T-cell immunodeficiency [1, 2]. e immune system of AIDS patients is low, and they are very likely to be infected with other diseases [3, 4]. E immune system of AIDS patients is low, and they are very likely to be infected with other diseases [3, 4]. Erefore, in recent years, the number of AIDS patients with spinal tuberculosis has gradually increased, and the corresponding diagnosis and treatment methods are different from single disease infection, and the main characteristics of the two diseases need to be considered [6–9]. Ere are two main types of diagnostic methods for AIDS combined with spinal tuberculosis: laboratory tests and imaging tests. X-ray photography has great advantages in imaging examinations It is characterized by the low cost of detection and easy operation of the detection process. For a more comprehensive and accurate diagnosis and examination of AIDS patients with spinal tuberculosis, it is more common to use a combination of these three detection methods or a combination of two
