Parathyroid gland identification and angiography classification using simple machine learning methods.
Background: Near-infrared indocyanine green angiography allows experienced surgeons to reliably evaluate parathyroid gland vitality during thyroid and parathyroid operations in order to predict postoperative function. To facilitate equal performance between surgeons, we developed an automatic computational quantification method using computer vision that portrays expert interpretation of visualized parathyroid gland near-infrared indocyanine green angiographic fluorescence signals.
Methods: Near-infrared indocyanine green-parathyroid gland angiography video recordings (Fluobeam® LX, Fluoptics, Grenoble-part of Getinge-Göteborg) from patients undergoing endocrine cervical surgery in a high-volume unit were used for model development. Computation (MATLAB, Mathworks, Ireland) included segmentation-identification of the parathyroid gland (by autofluorescence), image stabilization (by linear translation) and adjusted time-fluorescence intensity profile generation. Relative upslope and maximum intensity ratios then trained a simple logistic regression model based on expert interpretation and outcome (including hypoparathyroidism), with subsequent unseen testing for validation.
Results: The model was trained on 37 patient videos (45 glands, 29 judged well perfused by parathyroid gland angiography experts), achieving feature data separation with 100% accuracy, and tested on 22 unseen videos (27 glands, 15 judged well perfused), including four in real time. Segmentation-guided parathyroid gland detection correctly identified all parathyroid glands during unseen testing along with three additional non-parathyroid gland regions (90% positive predictive value). Subsequent time-fluorescence intensity profile extraction with vitality prediction was shown feasible in all cases within 5 min, with a 96.3% model accuracy (sensitivity and specificity were 93.3 and 100% respectively) when compared with expert judgement.
Conclusion: Automatic parathyroid gland perfusion quantification using simple machine learning computational methods discriminates parathyroid gland perfusion in concordance with expert surgeon interpretation, providing a means for near-infrared indocyanine green-parathyroid gland signal evaluation.
