Area of Science:

  • Medical Imaging
  • Artificial Intelligence in Medicine
  • Radiology

Background:

  • Thyroid ultrasound images often contain artificial markers that hinder the accuracy of computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) systems.
  • Robust CAD systems require high-quality, artifact-free imaging data for reliable diagnosis and prognostic modeling of thyroid disorders.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a comprehensive thyroid ultrasound image database (TUD) for advancing CAD systems.
  • To introduce a novel marker mask inpainting (MMI) method to enhance the quality of thyroid ultrasound images by removing artificial markers.

Main Methods:

  • Collected thyroid ultrasound images from a clinical setting.
  • Developed and implemented a two-module MMI method: marker detection (MD) and marker erasure (ME).
  • Constructed the TUD using both original marked and processed unmarked images, with expert physician annotation and analysis.

Main Results:

  • The TUD facilitates the development of more accurate CAD systems for analyzing thyroid nodule-related lesions.
  • Quantitative experiments validated the effectiveness of the MMI method in improving image quality by erasing markers.
  • The database includes normal thyroid images and information on benign and malignant nodules.

Conclusions:

  • The high-quality TUD supports the development of improved diagnostic and treatment strategies for thyroid diseases.
  • The MMI method effectively enhances thyroid ultrasound image quality by removing artificial markers.
  • The TUD is publicly available to promote research in thyroid disorder diagnosis.
