Voiding Cystourethrography (VCUG) and Cystography are specialized radiographic procedures used to examine the structure and function of the bladder and urethra.Voiding Cystourethrography (VCUG)A Voiding Cystourethrogram (VCUG) is a diagnostic imaging procedure that assesses the anatomy and function of the lower urinary tract. It focuses on the bladder, bladder neck, and urethra, helping detect abnormalities such as vesicoureteral reflux (VUR)—the backward or reverse flow of urine into the...

Computed Tomography

4.7K
Tomography refers to imaging by sections. Computed tomography (CT) is a non-invasive imaging technique that uses computers to analyze several cross-sectional X-rays to reveal minute details about structures in the body.
The technique was invented in the 1970s and is based on the principle that as X-rays pass through the body, they are absorbed or reflected at different levels. In the technique, a patient lies on a motorized platform while a computerized axial tomography (CAT) scanner rotates...

Area of Science:

  • Medical Imaging
  • Artificial Intelligence
  • Oncology

Background:

  • Visual inspection with acetic acid (VIA) is crucial for cervical pre-cancer screening in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs).
  • Limited availability of specialized clinicians leads to reliance on medical workers for VIA examinations.
  • Current VIA interpretation by medical workers suffers from high inter-observer variability and false-positive rates due to pattern recognition challenges.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop an automated cervicogram interpretation system, CervicoXNet, utilizing explainable convolutional neural networks.
  • To support medical workers in making more accurate and consistent diagnostic decisions during VIA screening.
  • To enhance the reliability of early cervical cancer detection in resource-limited settings.

Main Methods:

  • A dataset of 779 cervicograms (487 VIA+ and 292 VIA-) was used for model training.
  • Extensive data augmentation through geometric transformations generated 14,567 images (7325 VIA- and 7242 VIA+).
  • Explainable AI techniques, including Grad-CAM and guided backpropagation, were employed for visual interpretability.

Main Results:

  • CervicoXNet achieved high performance metrics: 99.22% accuracy, 100% sensitivity, and 98.28% specificity on the training dataset.
  • The model demonstrated robustness and generalization ability on an independent set of colposcope images, yielding 98.11% accuracy, 98.33% sensitivity, and 98% specificity.
  • Heatmaps provided fine-grained localization of abnormalities, enhancing prediction interpretability.

Conclusions:

  • CervicoXNet offers a reliable and explainable automated solution for cervicogram interpretation.
  • The AI tool can significantly improve the accuracy and consistency of cervical pre-cancer screening, particularly in LMICs.
  • CervicoXNet presents a viable alternative or adjunct to VIA alone, empowering medical workers and potentially reducing the burden on specialized healthcare professionals.
