    Abstract : Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) are used to classify directly on bone scan images in two medical tasks: classifying anterior / posterior pose, and classifying bone scan hotspots as metastatic / non-metastatic in patients with prostate cancer and suspected metastatic disease. The networks trained produce highly accurate results in both tasks and current methods are outperformed for all tested body regions when classifying metastatic / non-metastatic hotspots. READ MORE
