Research on the Practical Classification and Privacy Protection of CT Images of Parotid Tumors based on ResNet50 Model

Abstract

Parotid gland disease is one of the main causes of facial paralysis, and parotid gland tumor is a great threat to the life of patients. The main diagnostic way of parotid diseases is imaging examination, so it is of great significance for the rapid classification of parotid image. In conclusion, 51 CT images of parotid malignant tumors and 101 CT images of parotid pleomorphic adenomas are selected as the research data set, and an intelligent and efficient machine learning algorithm is proposed for the practical classification of parotid images. At the same time, this paper also explores the privacy protection of medical images. Based on the advantages of deep learning, such as no feature engineering, strong adaptability and easy conversion, ResNet50 model in deep learning is selected as the basic network framework to achieve the purpose of rapid classification of parotid CT images. This is the first time that ResNet50 classification algorithm is applied to the practical classification of parotid tumor CT images. The results show that the accuracy of the test set converges to 90% when the model is iterated 1000 times, which also proves that this study has certain practical significance and application value for the auxiliary diagnosis of parotid gland tumor and other head and neck tumors. Simultaneously, this paper also explores the application of desensitization strategy in CT images of parotid tumors, which improves the performance of the model and also greatly protects the privacy of patients, and has a good application prospect in medical big data.
