Abstract
A method for performing computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) based on a medical scan image includes: pre-processing the medical scan image to produce an input image, a flipped image, and a spatial alignment transformation corresponding to the input image and the flipped image; performing Siamese encoding on the input image to produce an encoded input feature map; performing Siamese encoding on the flipped image to produce an encoded flipped feature map; performing a feature alignment using the spatial alignment transformation on the encoded flipped feature map to produce an encoded symmetric feature map; and processing the encoded input feature map and the encoded symmetric feature map to generate a diagnostic result indicating presence and locations of anatomical abnormalities in the medical scan image.
