Improved UNet Deep Learning Model for Automatic Detection of Lung Cancer Nodules

Uncontrolled cell growth in the two spongy lung organs in the chest is the most prevalent kind of cancer. When cells from the lungs spread to other tissues and organs, this is referred to as metastasis. This work uses image processing, deep learning, and metaheuristics to identify cancer in its early stages. At this point, a new convolutional neural network is constructed. The predator technique has the potential to increase network architecture and accuracy. Deep learning identified lung cancer spinal metastases in as energy consumption increased CT readings for lung cancer bone metastases decreased. Qualified physicians, on the other hand, discovered 71.14 and 74.60 percent of targets with energies of 140 and 60 keV, respectively, whereas the proposed model gives 76.51 and 81.58 percent, respectively. Expert physicians' detection rate was 74.60 percent lower than deep learning's detection rate of 81.58 percent. The proposed method has the highest accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity (93.4, 98.4, and 97.1 percent, respectively), as well as the lowest error rate (1.6 percent). Finally, in lung segmentation, the proposed model outperforms the CNN model. High-intensity energy-spectral CT images are more difficult to segment than low-intensity energy-spectral CT images.
