Bone Metastasis Detection in the Chest and Pelvis from a Whole-Body Bone Scan Using Deep Learning and a Small Dataset

The aim of this study was to establish an early diagnostic system for the identification of the bone metastasis of prostate cancer in whole-body bone scan images by using a deep convolutional neural network (D-CNN). The developed system exhibited satisfactory performance for a small dataset containi...
