Contrast-Enhanced Black Blood MRI Sequence Is Superior to Conventional T1 Sequence in Automated Detection of Brain Metastases by Convolutional Neural Networks

Contrast-Enhanced Black Blood MRI Sequence Is Superior to Conventional T1 Sequence in Automated Detection of Brain Metastases by Convolutional Neural Networks

Background: in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), automated detection of brain metastases with convolutional neural networks (CNN) represents an extraordinary challenge due to small lesions sometimes posing as brain vessels as well as other confounders. Literature reporting high false positive rates...
