Deep Learning of Anterior Talofibular Ligament: Comparison of Different Models

June 29, 2021 updated by: Peking University Third Hospital
The purpose of this study is to study the injury of the anterior talofibular ligament by deep learning method and compare a variety of different deep learning models to establish a deep learning method that can accurately identify and grade the injury of anterior talofibular ligament, and obtain a model with better recognition and grading effect.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

  1. Recognition and segmentation of anterior talofibular ligament based on DenseNet. Densenet was used to recognize the axial T2-fs image, and the image level was the most typical one. The labelimg program based on Python was used to locate the coordinates of the anterior talofibular ligament and then imported into Python for learning. All the data were divided into a training set (70%, and then 30% of the training set was selected as the verification set). The remaining 30% was used as the test set to evaluate the accuracy of model recognition. After identifying the anterior talofibular ligament, the local clipping and amplification are carried out to remove the redundant information. Finally, input the result to the next step.
  2. Establishment and comparison of various deep learning models: four deep learning models were established and compared in this study, namely VGG19, AlexNet, CapsNet, and GoogleNet. The models using image fitting alone and those combining with clinical physical examination data were compared for each deep learning model. The diagnostic efficiency between models was expressed by the ROC curve, including AUC, F1 score, etc. the ROC curve was further analyzed by t-test, Delong test, and other statistical methods. In this study, the data were divided into a training set (70%, 30% in the training set as the validation set), and the remaining 30% as the test set to evaluate the classification accuracy.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

  • Child
  • Adult
  • Older Adult

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Yes

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

From September 2018 to September 2020, patients underwent ankle MRI examination in the Department of Radiology, the Third Hospital of Peking University.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Without any treatment before imaging examination;
  2. MR of ankle joint was performed within 3 months before operation and the image quality was good;
  3. Arthroscopic operation was performed in our hospital and the operation records were complete.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. history of ankle surgery, history of cancer or previous fractures.
  2. Unclear image, serious artifact or incomplete clinical data.

Normal control group-Grade 0
Arthroscopic examination of the ankle joint was normal, and the ligament was intact without injury or tear.
Diagnostic test: Diagnositic test
The results of hip arthroscopy were taken as the gold standard, and MRI examination was taken as the research object
Ligament injury -Grade 1
Arthroscopic examination of the ankle joint showed ligament degeneration or injury, but no local or complete tear.
Diagnostic test: Diagnositic test
The results of hip arthroscopy were taken as the gold standard, and MRI examination was taken as the research object
Ligament tear-Grade 2
Arthroscopy of the ankle joint revealed partial or complete loss of ligaments.
Diagnostic test: Diagnositic test
The results of hip arthroscopy were taken as the gold standard, and MRI examination was taken as the research object
