Deep Learning Model Aids Breast Cancer Detection

Breast cancer, a lumpy nodule or granular calcified tissue caused by cancerous changes in chest tissue, has become one of the most prevalent cancers. Due to the location and structure of the tumor, it can be detected directly by ultrasound or X-ray and is less likely to spread to other parts of the body than tumors in other parts of the body. Considering the huge number of sick people, the resources required for a full census would be enormous, but thanks to the rapid development of medical image processing technology in recent years, assisted diagnosis through deep learning models has gradually become more widely accepted. For detection models, higher accuracy means lower misdiagnosis rates and timely treatment for patients. Therefore, in this paper, we first specify the diagnose as a binary classification problem and then introduce a new pooling scheme and training method to achieve better results compared to the traditional network backbone in the past.
