Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of medical images, in particular to a method for predicting benign and malignant pulmonary nodules based on a convolutional neural network. Background technique [0002] The current benign and malignant pulmonary nodule extraction methods include: pulmonary nodule segmentation; feature extraction; classifier training, the above methods rely on the pre-segmentation of pulmonary nodules. Many current segmentation methods rely on the initialization of algorithms, such as region growing algorithms, level set algorithms, etc. Different initializations will have different effects on the final segmentation results, therefore, the features obtained by using such segmentation results are usually inaccurate.
