Background:

Cervical cancer presents a high incidence and mortality rate, posing a significant threat to women's health.
Current cervical cancer T-staging relies on subjective clinical experience, leading to potential misdiagnosis.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop a deep learning-based technique for automatic segmentation and T-staging of cervical cancer.
Enhance the clinical diagnostic accuracy and efficiency for cervical cancer management.

Main Methods:

A dataset of 17,479 fT1WI MRI scans from 144 patients was utilized.
A novel segmentation network, CPANet, was designed integrating global pyramid guidance and atrous spatial pyramid pooling.
T-staging models were developed using ResNet50, DenseNet121, and Swin Transformer, with pathological T-staging as ground truth.

Main Results:

CPANet demonstrated superior segmentation performance with high Dice similarity coefficients for tumors and organs.
The Swin Transformer model achieved the best T-staging performance, with high AUCs for main and sub-stages.
The developed models improved diagnostic accuracy and efficiency, with an average processing time of 1.60 seconds per case.

Conclusions:

CPANet and Swin Transformer enable accurate automatic segmentation and T-staging of cervical cancer from MRI images.
These advancements improve diagnostic accuracy and efficiency, conserve medical resources, and support intelligent healthcare systems.
