Objectives:<\/strong> We aimed to develop and evaluate a novel computer-aided detection (CADe) approach for identifying small metastatic biochemically recurrent (BCR) prostate cancer (PCa) lesions on PSMA-PET images, utilizing multi-angle Maximum Intensity Projections (MA-MIPs) and state-of-the-art (SOTA) object detection algorithms.<\/p>\n

Methods:<\/strong> We fine-tuned and evaluated 16 SOTA object detection algorithms (selected across four main categories of model types) applied to MA-MIPs as extracted from rotated 3D PSMA-PET volumes. Predicted 2D bounding boxes were back-projected to the original 3D space using the Ordered Subset Expectation Maximization (OSEM) algorithm. A fine-tuned Medical Segment-Anything Model (MedSAM) was then also used to segment the identified lesions within the bounding boxes.<\/p>\n

Results:<\/strong> The proposed method achieved a high detection performance for this difficult task, with the FreeAnchor model reaching an F1-score of 0.69 and a recall of 0.74. It outperformed several 3D methods in efficiency while maintaining comparable accuracy. Strong recall rates were observed for clinically relevant areas, such as local relapses (0.82) and bone metastases (0.80).<\/p>\n

Conclusion:<\/strong> Our fully automated CADe tool shows promise in assisting physicians as a \u201csecond reader\u201d for detecting small metastatic BCR PCa lesions on PSMA-PET images. By leveraging the strength and computational efficiency of 2D models while preserving 3D spatial information of the PSMA-PET volume, the proposed approach has the potential to improve detectability and reduce workload in cancer diagnosis and management.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
