This paper proposes a novel methodology for improving computer-aided prostate cancer detection on MRI using deep learning and semisupervised learning (SSL). The approach leverages automatically extracted clinical information from radiology reports, specifically lesion locations, to refine pseudo labels and train an SSL model. This method allows for the use of unannotated images, reducing the annotation burden and improving detection accuracy.

Prostate cancer is a common type of cancer that affects many people worldwide. Researchers are working on new ways to detect it using computers and medical images. This paper suggests a new approach that uses special computer learning tools to help find prostate lesions on MRI scans. The method works by looking at information from doctors’ reports, like where the lesions are located, to make better predictions about what’s in the image.
