Convolutional neural network for the detection of pancreatic cancer on CT scans

We applaud Kao-Lang Liu and colleagues1 for the development of a convolutional neural network (CNN) to classify CT image patches into cancerous and non-cancerous pancreatic tissue groups. Specifically, the patients with abnormal images were those who had histologically confirmed or cytologically confirmed pancreatic adenocarcinoma. In this study, the pancreas and tumours were segmented by two…
