Article Synopsis
- Dedicated brain imaging for cancer patients is rarely recommended unless symptoms arise, and brain metastases are often difficult to identify on non-enhanced CT (NE-CT).
- This research aims to create a 3D Convolutional Neural Network (3D-CNN) using NE-CT scans to effectively distinguish between cancer patients with and without brain metastases.
- The study utilized a dataset of 200 patients (100 with and 100 without brain abnormalities), achieving high accuracy (ACC of 0.983) and sensitivity (0.983) in detecting brain metastases, indicating the potential for a reliable diagnostic tool with further validation needed.
