Abstract
This paper presents a machine-learning approach to the interactive classification of suspected liver metastases in fMRI images. The method uses fMRI-based statistical modeling to characterize colorectal hepatic metastases and follow their early hemodynamical changes. Changes in hepatic hemodynamics are evaluated from -W fMRI images acquired during the breathing of air, air-CO2, and carbogen. A classification model is build to differentiate between tumors and healthy liver tissues. To validate our method, a model was built from 29 mice datasets, and used to classify suspicious regions in 16 new datasets of healthy subjects or subjects with metastases in earlier growth phases. Our experimental results on mice yielded an accuracy of 78% with high precision (88%). This suggests that the method can provide a useful aid for early detection of liver metastases.
