Deep CNNs for glioma grading on conventional MRIs: Performance analysis, challenges, and future directions.

The increasing global incidence of glioma tumors has raised significant healthcare concerns due to their high mortality rates. Traditionally, tumor diagnosis relies on visual analysis of medical imaging and invasive biopsies for precise grading. As an alternative, computer-assisted methods, particularly deep convolutional neural networks (DCNNs), have gained traction.

Advancing glioma diagnosis: Integrating custom U-Net and VGG-16 for improved grading in MR imaging.

In the realm of medical imaging, the precise segmentation and classification of gliomas represent fundamental challenges with profound clinical implications. Leveraging the BraTS 2018 dataset as a standard benchmark, this study delves into the potential of advanced deep learning models for addressing these challenges. We propose a novel approach that integrates a customized U-Net for segmentation and VGG-16 for classification.
