A Survey on Deep Learning in Medical Image Analysis
Deep learning algorithms, in particular convolutional networks, have rapidly
become a methodology of choice for analyzing medical images. This paper reviews
the major deep learning concepts pertinent to medical image analysis and
summarizes over 300 contributions to the field, most of which appeared in the
last year. We survey the use of deep learning for image classification, object
detection, segmentation, registration, and other tasks and provide concise
overviews of studies per application area. Open challenges and directions for
future research are discussed.Comment: Revised survey includes expanded discussion section and reworked
introductory section on common deep architectures. Added missed papers from

Deep Learning in Breast Cancer Imaging: A Decade of Progress and Future Directions
Breast cancer has reached the highest incidence rate worldwide among all
malignancies since 2020. Breast imaging plays a significant role in early
diagnosis and intervention to improve the outcome of breast cancer patients. In
the past decade, deep learning has shown remarkable progress in breast cancer
imaging analysis, holding great promise in interpreting the rich information
and complex context of breast imaging modalities. Considering the rapid
improvement in the deep learning technology and the increasing severity of
breast cancer, it is critical to summarize past progress and identify future
challenges to be addressed. In this paper, we provide an extensive survey of
deep learning-based breast cancer imaging research, covering studies on
mammogram, ultrasound, magnetic resonance imaging, and digital pathology images
over the past decade. The major deep learning methods, publicly available
datasets, and applications on imaging-based screening, diagnosis, treatment
response prediction, and prognosis are described in detail. Drawn from the
findings of this survey, we present a comprehensive discussion of the
challenges and potential avenues for future research in deep learning-based
breast cancer imaging.Comment: Survey, 41 page
Prospects for Theranostics in Neurosurgical Imaging: Empowering Confocal Laser Endomicroscopy Diagnostics via Deep Learning
Confocal laser endomicroscopy (CLE) is an advanced optical fluorescence
imaging technology that has the potential to increase intraoperative precision,
extend resection, and tailor surgery for malignant invasive brain tumors
because of its subcellular dimension resolution. Despite its promising
diagnostic potential, interpreting the gray tone fluorescence images can be
difficult for untrained users. In this review, we provide a detailed
description of bioinformatical analysis methodology of CLE images that begins
to assist the neurosurgeon and pathologist to rapidly connect on-the-fly
intraoperative imaging, pathology, and surgical observation into a
conclusionary system within the concept of theranostics. We present an overview
and discuss deep learning models for automatic detection of the diagnostic CLE
images and discuss various training regimes and ensemble modeling effect on the
power of deep learning predictive models. Two major approaches reviewed in this
paper include the models that can automatically classify CLE images into
diagnostic/nondiagnostic, glioma/nonglioma, tumor/injury/normal categories and
models that can localize histological features on the CLE images using weakly
supervised methods. We also briefly review advances in the deep learning
approaches used for CLE image analysis in other organs. Significant advances in
speed and precision of automated diagnostic frame selection would augment the
diagnostic potential of CLE, improve operative workflow and integration into
brain tumor surgery. Such technology and bioinformatics analytics lend
themselves to improved precision, personalization, and theranostics in brain
tumor treatment.Comment: See the final version published in Frontiers in Oncology here:
