Abstract:
Bone and soft tissue tumors occur in the musculoskeletal system, and malignant bone tumors of bone and soft tissue account for 0.2% of all human malignant tumors, and if not diagnosed and treated in a timely manner, patients may be at risk of a poor prognosis. Image interpretation plays an increasingly important role in the diagnosis of bone and soft tissue tumors. Artificial intelligence (AI) can be applied in clinical treatment to integrate large amounts of multidimensional data, derive models, predict outcomes, and improve treatment decisions. Among these methods, deep learning is a widely employed technique in AI that predominantly utilizes convolutional neural networks (CNN). The network is implemented through repeated training of datasets and iterative parameter adjustments. Deep learning-based AI models have successfully been applied to various aspects of bone and soft tissue tumors, encompassing but not limiting in image segmentation, tumor detection, classification, grading and staging, chemotherapy effect evaluation, recurrence and prognosis prediction. This paper provides a comprehensive review of the principles and current state of AI in the medical image diagnosis and treatment of bone and soft tissue tumors. Additionally, it explores the present challenges and future prospects in this field.
