Three-dimensional automatic location system for epileptogenic focus based on deep learning

Abstract

The present disclosure discloses a three-dimensional automatic location system for an epileptogenic focus based on deep learning. The system includes: a PET image acquisition and labelling module; a registration module mapping PET image to standard symmetrical brain template; a PET image preprocessing module generating mirror image pairs of left and right brain image blocks; a network SiameseNet training module containing two deep residual convolutional neural networks which share weight parameters, an output layer connecting a multilayer perceptron and a softmax layer, and using a training set of an epileptogenic focus image and an normal image to train the network to obtain a network model; a classification module and epileptogenic focus location module, using the trained network model to generate a probabilistic heatmap for the newly input PET image, a classifier determining whether the image is normal or epileptogenic focus sample, and then predicting a position for the epileptogenic focus region.
