Improving B-mode ultrasound diagnostic performance for focal liver lesions using deep learning: A multicentre study

Background: The diagnosis performance of B-mode ultrasound (US) for focal liver lesions (FLLs) is relatively limited. We aimed to develop a deep convolutional neural network of US (DCNN-US) for aiding radiologists in classification of malignant from benign FLLs. Materials and methods: This study was...
