Abstract:
We evaluated the diagnostic performance of a multimodal deep-learning (DL) model for ovarian mass differential diagnosis. This single-center retrospective study included 1,054 ultrasound (US)-detected ovarian tumors (699 benign and 355 malignant). Patients were randomly divided into training (n = 675), validation (n = 169), and testing (n = 210) sets. The model was developed using ResNet-50. Three DL-based models were proposed for benign-malignant classification of these lesions: single-modality model that only utilized US images; dual-modality model that used US images and menopausal status as inputs; and multi-modality model that integrated US images, menopausal status, and serum indicators. After 5-fold cross-validation, 210 lesions were tested. We evaluated the three models using the area under the curve (AUC), accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity. The multimodal model outperformed the single- and dual-modality models with 93.80% accuracy and 0.983 AUC. The Multimodal ResNet-50 DL model outperformed the single- and dual-modality models in identifying benign and malignant ovarian tumors.
