RETRACTED: The Value of Artificial Intelligence Film Reading System Based on Deep Learning in the Diagnosis of Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer and the Significance of Efficacy Monitoring: A Retrospective, Clinical, Nonrandomized, Controlled Study (Retracted Article)

Objective. To explore the value of artificial intelligence (AI) film reading system based on deep learning in the diagnosis of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and the significance of curative effect monitoring. Methods. We retrospectively selected 104 suspected NSCLC cases from the self-built chest CT pulmonary nodule database in our hospital, and all of them were confirmed by pathological examination. The lung CT images of the selected patients were introduced into the AI reading system of pulmonary nodules, and the recording software automatically identified the nodules, and the results were compared with the results of the original image report. The nodules detected by the AI software and film readers were evaluated by two chest experts and recorded their size and characteristics. Comparison of calculation sensitivity, false positive rate evaluation of the NSCLC software, and physician's efficiency of nodule detection whether there was a significant difference between the two groups. Results. The sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive predictive rate, and false positive rate of NSCLC diagnosed by radiologists were 72.94% (62/85), 92.06% (58/63), 81.08% (62+58/148), 92.53% (62/67), and 7.93% (5/63), respectively. The sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive prediction rate, and false positive rate of AI film reading system in the diagnosis of NSCLC were 94.12% (80/85), 77.77% (49/63), 87.161% (80+49/148), 85.11% (80/94), and 22.22% (14/63), respectively. Compared with radiologists, the sensitivity and false positive rate of artificial intelligence film reading system in the diagnosis of NSCLC were higher (P<0.05). The sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive prediction rate, and negative prediction rate of artificial intelligence film reading system in evaluating the efficacy of patients with NSCLC were 87.50% (63/72), 69.23% (9/13), 84.70% (63+9)/85, 94.02% (63/67), and 50% (9/18), respectively. Conclusion. The AI film reading system based on deep learning has higher sensitivity for the diagnosis of NSCLC than radiologists and can be used as an auxiliary detection tool for doctors to screen for NSCLC, but its false positive rate is relatively high. Attention should be paid to identification. Meanwhile, the AI film reading system based on deep learning also has a certain guiding significance for the diagnosis and treatment monitoring of NSCLC.
