title = "A 2.5D deep learning-based approach for prostate cancer detection on T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging",
abstract = "In this paper, we propose a fully automatic magnetic resonance image (MRI)-based computer aided diagnosis (CAD) system which simultaneously performs both prostate segmentation and prostate cancer diagnosis. The system utilizes a deep-learning approach to extract high-level features from raw T2-weighted MR volumes. Features are then remapped to the original input to assign a predicted label to each pixel. In the same context, we propose a 2.5D approach which exploits 3D spatial information without a compromise in computational cost. The system is evaluated on a public dataset. Preliminary results demonstrate that our approach outperforms current state-of-the-art in both prostate segmentation and cancer diagnosis.",
