Multiparametric MRI is increasingly recommended as a first-line noninvasive approach to detect and localize prostate cancer, requiring at minimum diffusion-weighted (DWI) and T2-weighted (T2w) MR sequences. Early machine learning attempts using only T2w images have shown promising diagnostic performance in segmenting radiologist-annotated lesions. Such uni-modal T2-only approaches deliver substantial clinical benefits by reducing costs and expertise required to acquire other sequences. This work investigates an arguably more challenging application using only T2w at inference, but to localize individual cancers based on independent histopathology labels. We formulate DWI images as a latent modality (readily available during training) to classify cancer presence at local Barzell zones, given only T2w images as input. In the resulting expectation-maximization algorithm, a latent modality generator (implemented using a flow matching-based generative model) approximates the latent DWI image posterior distribution in the E-steps, while in M-steps a cancer localizer is simultaneously optimized with the generative model to maximize the expected likelihood of cancer presence. The proposed approach provides a novel theoretical framework for learning from a privileged DWI modality, yielding superior cancer localization performance compared to approaches that lack training DWI images or existing frameworks for privileged learning and incomplete modalities. The proposed T2-only methods perform competitively or better than baseline methods using multiple input sequences (e.g., improving the patient-level F1 score by 14.4\% and zone-level QWK by 5.3\% over the T2w+DWI baseline). We present quantitative evaluations using internal and external datasets from 4,133 prostate cancer patients with histopathology-verified labels.
Automated grading of prostate cancer histopathology images is a challenging task, with one key challenge being the scarcity of annotations down to the level of regions of interest (strong labels), as typically the prostate cancer Gleason score is known only for entire tissue slides (weak labels). In this study, we focus on automated Gleason score assignment of prostate cancer whole-slide images on the basis of a large weakly-labeled dataset and a smaller strongly-labeled one. We efficiently leverage information from both label sources by jointly training a classifier on the two datasets and by…
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is widely used for screening and staging prostate cancer. However, many prostate cancers have subtle features which are not easily identifiable on MRI, resulting in missed diagnoses and alarming variability in radiologist interpretation. Machine learning models have been developed in an effort to improve cancer identification, but current models localize cancer using MRI-derived features, while failing to consider the disease pathology characteristics observed on resected tissue. In this paper, we propose CorrSigNet, an automated two-step model that localizes p…

Prostate cancer is the most diagnosed form of cancer in Canadian men, and is the third leading cause of cancer death. Despite these statistics, prognosis is relatively good with a sufficiently early diagnosis, making fast and reliable prostate cancer detection crucial. As imaging-based prostate cancer screening, such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), requires an experienced medical professional to extensively review the data and perform a diagnosis, radiomics-driven methods help streamline the process and has the potential to significantly improve diagnostic accuracy and efficiency, and thu…

Prostate cancer is one of the most common causes of cancer deaths in men. There is a growing demand for noninvasively and accurately diagnostic methods that facilitate the current standard prostate cancer risk assessment in clinical practice. Still, developing computer-aided classification tools in prostate cancer diagnostics from multiparametric magnetic resonance images continues to be a challenge. In this work, we propose a novel deep learning approach for automatic classification of prostate lesions in the corresponding magnetic resonance images by constructing a two-stage multimodal multi…

Semantic segmentation constitutes an integral part of medical image analyses for which breakthroughs in the field of deep learning were of high relevance. The large number of trainable parameters of deep neural networks however renders them inherently data hungry, a characteristic that heavily challenges the medical imaging community. Though interestingly, with the de facto standard training of fully convolutional networks (FCNs) for semantic segmentation being agnostic towards the `structure' of the predicted label maps, valuable complementary information about the global quality of the segme…

Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men worldwide and the second leading cause of cancer death in the United States. One of the prognostic features in prostate cancer is the Gleason grading of histopathology images. The Gleason grade is assigned based on tumor architecture on Hematoxylin and Eosin (H&E) stained whole slide images (WSI) by the pathologists. This process is time-consuming and has known interobserver variability. In the past few years, deep learning algorithms have been used to analyze histopathology images, delivering promising results for grading prostate cancer. Howev…

Deep neural networks have introduced significant advancements in the field of machine learning-based analysis of digital pathology images including prostate tissue images. With the help of transfer learning, classification and segmentation performance of neural network models have been further increased. However, due to the absence of large, extensively annotated, publicly available prostate histopathology datasets, several previous studies employ datasets from well-studied computer vision tasks such as ImageNet dataset. In this work, we propose a transfer learning scheme from breast histopath…
Prostate cancer was the third most common cancer in 2020 internationally, coming after breast cancer and lung cancer. Furthermore, in recent years prostate cancer has shown an increasing trend. According to clinical experience, if this problem is detected and treated early, there can be a high chance of survival for the patient. One task that helps diagnose prostate cancer is prostate segmentation from magnetic resonance imaging. Manual segmentation performed by clinical experts has its drawbacks such as: the high time and concentration required from observers; and inter- and intra-observer va…

MOTIVATION: Detection of prostate cancer during transrectal ultrasound-guided biopsy is challenging. The highly heterogeneous appearance of cancer, presence of ultrasound artefacts, and noise all contribute to these difficulties. Recent advancements in high-frequency ultrasound imaging - micro-ultrasound - have drastically increased the capability of tissue imaging at high resolution. Our aim is to investigate the development of a robust deep learning model specifically for micro-ultrasound-guided prostate cancer biopsy. For the model to be clinically adopted, a key challenge is to design a so…

A large body of previous machine learning methods for ultrasound-based prostate cancer detection classify small regions of interest (ROIs) of ultrasound signals that lie within a larger needle trace corresponding to a prostate tissue biopsy (called biopsy core). These ROI-scale models suffer from weak labeling as histopathology results available for biopsy cores only approximate the distribution of cancer in the ROIs. ROI-scale models do not take advantage of contextual information that are normally considered by pathologists, i.e. they do not consider information about surrounding tissue and …

Early prostate cancer detection and staging from MRI are extremely challenging tasks for both radiologists and deep learning algorithms, but the potential to learn from large and diverse datasets remains a promising avenue to increase their generalization capability both within- and across clinics. To enable this for prototype-stage algorithms, where the majority of existing research remains, in this paper we introduce a flexible federated learning framework for cross-site training, validation, and evaluation of deep prostate cancer detection algorithms. Our approach utilizes an abstracted rep…

Prostate cancer is the second deadliest cancer for American men. While Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is increasingly used to guide targeted biopsies for prostate cancer diagnosis, its utility remains limited due to high rates of false positives and false negatives as well as low inter-reader agreements. Machine learning methods to detect and localize cancer on prostate MRI can help standardize radiologist interpretations. However, existing machine learning methods vary not only in model architecture, but also in the ground truth labeling strategies used for model training. In this study, we…

Non-invasive prostate cancer detection from MRI has the potential to revolutionize patient care by providing early detection of clinically-significant disease (ISUP grade group >= 2), but has thus far shown limited positive predictive value. To address this, we present an MRI-based deep learning method for predicting clinically significant prostate cancer applicable to a patient population with subsequent ground truth biopsy results ranging from benign pathology to ISUP grade group~5. Specifically, we demonstrate that mixed supervision via diverse histopathological ground truth improves classi…

Pathologists diagnose and grade prostate cancer by examining tissue from needle biopsies on glass slides. The cancer's severity and risk of metastasis are determined by the Gleason grade, a score based on the organization and morphology of prostate cancer glands. For diagnostic work-up, pathologists first locate glands in the whole biopsy core, and -- if they detect cancer -- they assign a Gleason grade. This time-consuming process is subject to errors and significant inter-observer variability, despite strict diagnostic criteria. This paper proposes an automated workflow that follows patholog…

Clinical decision support for histopathology image data mainly focuses on strongly supervised annotations, which offers intuitive interpretability, but is bound by expert performance. Here, we propose an explainable cancer relapse prediction network (eCaReNet) and show that end-to-end learning without strong annotations offers state-of-the-art performance while interpretability can be included through an attention mechanism. On the use case of prostate cancer survival prediction, using 14,479 images and only relapse times as annotations, we reach a cumulative dynamic AUC of 0.78 on a validatio…

In this work, we propose a deep U-Net based model to tackle the challenging task of prostate cancer segmentation by aggressiveness in MRI based on weak scribble annotations. This model extends the size constraint loss proposed by Kervadec et al. 1 in the context of multiclass detection and segmentation task. This model is of high clinical interest as it allows training on prostate biopsy samples and avoids time-consuming full annotation process. Performance is assessed on a private dataset (219 patients) where the full ground truth is available as well as on the ProstateX-2 challenge database,…

Prostate cancer (PCa) is the second most common cancer diagnosed among men worldwide. The current PCa diagnostic pathway comes at the cost of substantial overdiagnosis, leading to unnecessary treatment and further testing. Bi-parametric magnetic resonance imaging (bp-MRI) based on apparent diffusion coefficient maps (ADC) and T2-weighted (T2w) sequences has been proposed as a triage test to differentiate between clinically significant (cS) and non-clinically significant (ncS) prostate lesions. However, analysis of the sequences relies on expertise, requires specialized training, and suffers fr…

Automatic segmentation of the prostate cancer from the multi-modal magnetic resonance images is of critical importance for the initial staging and prognosis of patients. However, how to use the multi-modal image features more efficiently is still a challenging problem in the field of medical image segmentation. In this paper, we develop a cross-modal self-attention distillation network by fully exploiting the encoded information of the intermediate layers from different modalities, and the extracted attention maps of different modalities enable the model to transfer the significant spatial inf…

Prostate cancer (PCa) is one of the most common and aggressive cancers worldwide. The Gleason score (GS) system is the standard way of classifying prostate cancer and the most reliable method to determine the severity and treatment to follow. The pathologist looks at the arrangement of cancer cells in the prostate and assigns a score on a scale that ranges from 6 to 10. Automatic analysis of prostate whole-slide images (WSIs) is usually addressed as a binary classification problem, which misses the finer distinction between stages given by the GS. This paper presents a probabilistic deep learn…
We propose an automated method for detecting aggressive prostate cancer(CaP) (Gleason score >=7) based on a comprehensive analysis of the lesion and the surrounding normal prostate tissue which has been simultaneously captured in T2-weighted MR images, diffusion-weighted images (DWI) and apparent diffusion coefficient maps (ADC). The proposed methodology was tested on a dataset of 79 patients (40 aggressive, 39 non-aggressive). We evaluated the performance of a wide range of popular quantitative imaging features on the characterization of aggressive versus non-aggressive CaP. We found that a g…

Prostate cancer is one of the common diseases in men, and it is the most common malignant tumor in developed countries. Studies have shown that the male prostate incidence rate is as high as 2.5% to 16%, Currently, the inci-dence of prostate cancer in Asia is lower than that in the West, but it is increas-ing rapidly. If prostate cancer can be found as early as possible and treated in time, it will have a high survival rate. Therefore, it is of great significance for the diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer. In this paper, we propose a trans-fer learning method based on deep neural netwo…
