OncoNet: Weakly Supervised Siamese Network to automate cancer treatment response assessment between longitudinal FDG PET/CT examinations
[article]
2021
arXiv
pre-print
Automated assessment of radiographic response from FDG PET/CT with OncoNet could provide clinicians with a valuable tool to rapidly and consistently interpret change over time in longitudinal multi-modal ...
OncoNet demonstrates an AUROC of 0.86 and 0.84 on internal and external institution test sets respectively for determination of change between scans while also showing strong agreement to clinical scoring ...
The top row shows the emergence of a new tumor (progression) in the bottom left part of the scan and the saliency focuses on the region of the change. ...

FDG-PET/CT proved more sensitive than contrast-enhanced CT scan in staging of several type of lymphoma or in detecting widespread tumor dissemination in several solid cancers, such as breast, lung, colon ...
Moreover, the continuous technological progress of image generation and the introduction of sophisticated software to use PET scan as a biomarker paved the way to calculate new prognostic markers such ...
Such a relationship, however, is not linear and seems lost for very small tumor burden where the entity of the residual tracer uptake by the tumor is beyond the detection power of FDG-PET/CT scan. ...
