Abstract

In recent years, the incidence of thyroid nodules has shown an increasing trend year by year and has become one of the important diseases that endanger human health. Ultrasound medical images based on deep learning are widely used in clinical diagnosis due to their cheapness, no radiation, and low cost. The use of image processing technology to accurately segment the nodule area provides important auxiliary information for the doctor's diagnosis, which is of great value for guiding clinical treatment. The purpose of this article is to explore the application value of combined detection of abnormal sugar-chain glycoprotein (TAP) and carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) in the risk estimation of thyroid cancer in patients with thyroid nodules of type IV and above based on deep learning medical images. In this paper, ultrasound thyroid images are used as the research content, and the active contour level set method is used as the segmentation basis, and a segmentation algorithm for thyroid nodules is proposed. This paper takes ultrasound thyroid images as the research content, uses the active contour level set method as the basis of segmentation, and proposes an image segmentation algorithm Fast-SegNet based on deep learning, which extends the network model that was mainly used for thyroid medical image segmentation to more scenarios of the segmentation task. From January 2019 to October 2020, 400 patients with thyroid nodules of type IV and above were selected for physical examination and screening at the Health Management Center of our hospital, and they were diagnosed as thyroid cancer by pathological examination of thyroid nodules under B-ultrasound positioning. The detection rates of thyroid cancer in patients with thyroid nodules of type IV and above are compared; serum TAP and CEA levels are detected; PT-PCR is used to detect TTF-1, PTEN, and NIS expression; the detection, missed diagnosis, misdiagnosis rate, and diagnostic efficiency of the three detection methods are compared. This article uses the thyroid nodule region segmented based on deep learning medical images and compares experiments with CV model, LBF model, and DRLSE model. The experimental results show that the segmentation overlap rate of this method is as high as 98.4%, indicating that the algorithm proposed in this paper can more accurately extract the thyroid nodule area.

Summary

Image Segmentation Algorithms and Models Based on Deep Learning

Ultrasound yroid Nodule Level Set Segmentation Model Based on Deep Learning. Because the boundary of the ultrasound image is blurred and the weak boundary is often the contour of the target area, the accuracy of the active contour model based on the area is still not high in segmentation. Erefore, boundary-based active contours are gradually applied to image segmentation, and the most typical boundary model is the geodesic (GAC) model method. This method can be used to segment medical images, it is more complicated in numerical implementation and requires constant reinitialization, which is time-consuming [19, 20]. 3. Experimental Study of TAP and CEA Combined Detection Based on Deep Learning Medical Image Segmentation in Thyroid Cancer Risk Estimation in Patients with Thyroid Nodules of Type IV and above. All patients and their families were aware of this study and approved by the ethics committee of our hospital
