Ultrasound Image Features under Deep Learning in Breast Conservation Surgery for Breast Cancer.

This study was to analyze the effect of the combined application of deep learning technology and ultrasound imaging on the effect of breast-conserving surgery for breast cancer. A deep label distribution learning (LDL) model was designed, and the semiautomatic segmentation algorithm based on the region growing and active contour technology (RA) and the segmentation model based on optimized nearest neighbors (ON) were introduced for comparison. The designed algorithm was applied to the breast-conserving surgery of breast cancer patients. According to the difference in intraoperative guidance methods, 102 female patients with early breast cancer were divided into three groups: 34 cases in W1 group (ultrasound guidance based on deep learning segmentation model), 34 cases in W2 group (ultrasound guidance), and 34 cases in W3 group (palpation guidance). The results revealed that the tumor area segmented by the LDL algorithm constructed in this study was closer to the real tumor area; the segmentation accuracy (AC), Jaccard, and true-positive (TP) values of the LDL algorithm were obviously greater than those of the RA and ON algorithms, while the false-positive (FP) value was significantly lower in contrast to the RA and ON algorithms, showing statistically observable differences (
