Area of Science:

  • Medical Imaging
  • Artificial Intelligence
  • Oncology

Background:

  • Lung cancer is a major cause of cancer mortality globally.
  • Early detection of pulmonary nodules is crucial for improving patient prognosis and survival rates.
  • Distinguishing benign from malignant nodules via conventional imaging remains a significant clinical challenge.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose a novel two-pathway wavelet-based deep learning computer-aided diagnosis (CADx) framework for enhanced lung nodule classification.
  • To improve the accuracy and efficiency of lung nodule characterization using high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) images.

Main Methods:

  • Developed the Wavelet-based Lung Cancer Detection Network (WaveLCDNet) utilizing convolutional neural network (CNN) blocks and trainable wavelet blocks for multi-resolution analysis.
  • Incorporated a convolutional block attention module (CBAM) to enhance discriminative feature learning.
  • Employed adaptive fusion of extracted features followed by global average pooling (GAP).

Main Results:

  • WaveLCDNet achieved high performance on the LIDC-IDRI dataset with sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of 96.89%, 95.52%, and 96.70%, respectively.
  • External validation on the Kaggle DSB2017 dataset demonstrated 95.90% accuracy and a Brier Score of 0.0215.
  • The framework showed reliability across independent imaging sources, indicating practical value for clinical integration.

Conclusions:

  • The proposed framework effectively combines multi-scale convolutional filtering with wavelet-based multi-resolution analysis and attention mechanisms.
  • WaveLCDNet outperforms state-of-the-art deep learning models for lung nodule characterization.
  • This CADx solution offers a promising approach for enhancing early lung cancer diagnosis in clinical settings.
