ABSTRACTO

Pneumoconiosis is a disease characterized by pulmonary tissue deposition caused by dust exposure in the
workplace. In China, due to the large number and wide distribution of pneumoconiosis patients, there is a
high demand for the case data of lung biopsy during the diagnosis of pneumoconiosis. This text studied the
application of medical image detection technology in pneumoconiosis diagnosis based on deep learning
(DL). A medical image detection and convolution neural network (CNN) based on DL was analyzed, y el
application of DL medical image technology in pneumoconiosis diagnosis was researched. The experimental
results in this paper showed that in the last round of testing, the accuracy of ResNet model including
deconvolution structure reached 95.2%. The area under curve (AUC) value of the working characteristics of
the subject is 0.987. The sensitivity was 99.66%, and the specificity was 88.61%. The non staging diagnosis
of pneumoconiosis improved the diagnostic sensitivity while ensuring high specificity. al mismo tiempo,
Delong test method was used to conduct AUC analysis on the three models, and the results showed that
model C was more effective than model A and model B. There is no significant difference between model A
and model B, and there is no significant difference in diagnostic efficiency. In a word, the diagnosis of the
model has high sensitivity and low probability of missed diagnosis, which can greatly reduce the working
pressure of diagnostic doctors and effectively improve the efficiency of diagnosis.

Application of Medical Image Detection Technology Based on Deep Learning in Pneumoconiosis
Diagnosis

1. INTRODUCCIÓN

According to the statistics on the number of disabled and dead people worldwide released by the World
Health Organization, 580000 people died of pneumoconiosis in 2017. Computer technology has made
certain achievements in the medical field and promoted the progress of new technologies and new ideas
in this field. Sin embargo, in China, due to historical reasons, the diagnosis results of pneumoconiosis vary
greatly in different regions. The reason for this problem is that grass root hospitals are not equipped with
enough high-quality and authoritative medical imaging diagnostic equipment, which is easy to be
misdiagnosed. Based on this, improving the diagnostic efficiency of clinical pneumoconiosis has become
one of the urgent problems to be solved. Deep learning technology is an artificial intelligence method,
which extracts the optimal weight model from the deep neural network and applies it to the deep learning
system to achieve the learning goal with high accuracy. Por lo tanto, this paper would design and study the
problem of medical image big data analysis based on DL network based on DL model, and study its
application and development in pneumoconiosis diagnosis. Medical image processing technology based
on DL usually takes image extraction and feature extraction as the ultimate goal in traditional computer
simulation methods, and further improving diagnostic efficiency based on DL training model has become
a hot spot in the current medical field. This paper studied the application of medical image detection
technology in pneumoconiosis diagnosis based on deep learning, hoping to make some contributions to
pneumoconiosis.

According to the existing research progress, different researchers have also conducted corresponding
cooperative research in the diagnosis of pneumoconiosis. Qi Xian-Mei reviewed the epidemiology, protective
procedures, diagnosis and treatment of pneumoconiosis, and reviewed recent research and prospects [1].
Zhang Yuan aimed to explore a multi-scale feature mapping technology to help grading and auxiliary
diagnosis of pneumoconiosis [2]. Yang Fan aimed to establish a computer aided diagnostic system for
human and pneumoconiosis by combining X-ray and DL [3]. Zhang Liuzhuo planned to develop an
artificial intelligence based imaging diagnostic model to assist imaging physicians in screening and grading
pneumoconiosis [4]. Sin embargo, these scholars lack some technical demonstration on the diagnosis of
pneumoconiosis. It found that DL can play a better role in the diagnosis of pneumoconiosis. A este respecto,
it consulted the relevant literature on in-depth learning.

Some scholars have also done some research in depth learning: Wang Xiaohua aimed to evaluate the
application value of DL technology in the diagnosis of pneumoconiosis, and compared it with certified
radiologists [5]. Sun Wenjian proposed a complete in-depth learning paradigm for pneumoconiosis staging,
including segmentation procedure and staging procedure [6]. Dong Hantian aimed to establish a successful
DL mode by using data enhancement technology to explore the clinical uniqueness of chest X-ray imaging
features of coal miners’ pneumoconiosis [7]. Sin embargo, these scholars did not study the application of
medical image detection technology in the diagnosis of pneumoconiosis based on DL, but unilaterally
discussed its significance.

In order to solve the problem of great demand for lung biopsy case data in the diagnosis of pneumoconiosis,
this paper proposes a convolution neural network algorithm based on deep learning. Through the analysis

of the imaging characteristics of the lung, a medical image detection method based on deep learning is
constructed, and the application of medical image detection technology in the diagnosis of pneumoconiosis
is simulated., According to the experimental results, the medical image detection model based on depth
learning has high sensitivity, eso es, the probability of missed diagnosis is very small, which can greatly
reduce the workload of clinicians. The innovation of this paper is that this paper proposes a neural network
model based on deep learning, and applies it to the diagnosis of pneumoconiosis, which can reduce the
detection time and misdiagnosis rate, and improve the survival rate of pneumoconiosis patients.

2. APPLICATION OF MEDICAL IMAGE DETECTION TECHNOLOGY IN PNEUMOCONIOSIS
DIAGNOSIS

2.1 Imaging Characteristics of Lung

The clinical manifestations of pneumoconiosis mainly include early symptoms and severe symptoms [8–9].
The main symptoms in the early stage were cough, expectoration, chest pain and dyspnea, que eran
close to the pulmonary function after activity or rest. As the disease progresses, the main symptoms may be
chest tightness, expectoration, shortness of breath, and dyspnea. As shown in Figure 1, it is pneumoconiosis.
Pulmonary insufficiency can also be manifested as dyspnea, shortness of breath, dyspnea, etc.. When death
or quality of life declines due to long-term respiratory failure, pneumoconiosis patients may have symptoms
such as chest tightness and asthma, or metabolic diseases such as anorexia, fatiga, emaciation, menstrual
disorders, and complications such as palpitation and chest pain [10–11]. In the early stage, the patient’s
symptoms were mild, and the lung X-ray examination often showed atypical pulmonary nodules, cual
confirmed the disease. There may be respiratory failure and organ failure in different degrees in the middle
and late stages. If late treatment is not timely, it would cause complications such as brain edema and
pulmonary embolism.

Cifra 1. Pneumoconiosis.

Lung biopsy is one of the main methods to detect lung tissue and lung function, which can accurately
evaluate and quantify clinical symptoms and imaging features. Although lung biopsy has a high accuracy
in diagnosing early pneumoconiosis, due to the particularity of the lung structure and its vulnerability to
noise interference, its accuracy in diagnosing dust exposure history or dust exposure history is still
insufficient, especially in some patients with early pneumoconiosis [12–13]. The biggest disadvantage of

Diagnosis

lung biopsy is that it has no specificity for local lesions. Por lo tanto, for some patients with obvious lung
lesions but no specific manifestations, further imaging examination can be considered to make a clear
diagnosis. In order to reduce the economic losses caused by misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis in the
diagnosis of pneumoconiosis and the burden of hospitalization expenses of patients, some scholars have
proposed to add a small amount of grayscale in the electronic computer tomography in recent years,
which reflects the structure and function of patients’ lung tissues through grayscale values [14-15].
Sin embargo, because the gray area itself has no specificity, it is often impossible to identify the factors such
as the pneumonia tissue composition and bronchial structure of patients with different types of
pneumoconiosis [16–17]. Además, in the application of computer tomography for pneumoconiosis
diagnosis, attention should be paid to minimizing the damage to the lung caused by image blurring and
reducing the therapeutic effect.

2.2 Medical Image Detection Based on DL

In the traditional medical image classification system, due to the limitations of different image features
and different medical image quality, traditional medical image classification methods usually use traditional
random feature filtering methods, random feature fusion methods and random feature learning methods
to classify medical images. Sin embargo, due to the large number of nonlinear factors in traditional network
diseño, it is difficult to adapt to the feature differences of different medical images, so many medical images
with important application value can not be used well after accurate classification.

2.3 CNN Based on DL

Because a large number of concepts such as convolutional neural networks and decision trees are used
in the DL model, these convolutional neural networks classify and predict image data by continuously using
the neural networks trained by the convolutional neural networks. By continuously correcting, correcting
and improving the training data, the deep learning software can finally achieve an ideal effect. Sin embargo,
compared with the traditional machine learning model, the DL model has certain advantages in the
automatic diagnosis of pneumoconiosis. First of all, the technology does not require long-term hospitalization
for pneumoconiosis patients, reducing the cost of treatment. En segundo lugar, this technology can quickly reflect
the diagnosis results, making the diagnosis process easier and faster. Además, the DL model has great
advantages in the auxiliary diagnosis of pneumoconiosis. This technology can be used to mine and analyze
the chest image data of pneumoconiosis patients, so as to find features such as pulmonary fibrosis, decreased
pulmonary activity of pneumoconiosis patients, and crescent shaped areas of pneumoconiosis patients’
pulmonary lesions [18]. Cifra 2 shows the application of DL technology in pneumoconiosis.

CNN is the most widely used network in the world. Modern CNN has three basic structures: convolution

capa, pooling layer and full connection layer.

(1) Convolution layer: the convolution layer can be used to study the input characteristics of the model
and perform different convolution kernel operations. Específicamente, different convolution cores are used to

co,k represents the element of row o and column k in the image matrix, and ez,m represents the weight of
row z and column m in the convolution kernel. en represents the offset term of the convolution kernel, y
entonces,k represents the elements in row o and column k of the feature graph extracted by the convolution
operación. gramo(·) is used to represent the activation function, and the activation function strengthens the
nonlinear change, so that the network can handle the nonlinear separable problem well, and has good
expressiveness. Because different networks have different tasks, there are many types of activation functions,
the most common of which are Sigmaid function and Relu function.

(2) Pooling layer: main function is to reduce the dimension of the output vector of the convolution layer,
reduce the model parameters, and to some extent avoid over fitting, thus enhancing the generalization
performance of the model. In the process of image processing, it usually appears behind the convolution
capa. The combination of convolution layer and pooling layer can make the extracted features more abstract
and semantic richer.

(3) Full connection layer: in the convolutional neural network, “classifier” is generally used to map the
learning characteristics of the original convolution layer and pooling layer to the sample mark space. En
CNN, in order to give the weight of the previously extracted features, the late level full connection layer
is generally used.

At the beginning of CNN training, the weight of convolution kernel is random, and it cannot extract
some special characteristics from the image. In the case of forward propagation, the early output value
cannot explain anything, so it cannot be classified reasonably. In order to evaluate the prediction effect
scientifically, it is necessary to establish a loss function to determine the deviation between the prediction
result and the actual label. If there is a small deviation between the prediction results and the real data,
the model has a higher prediction accuracy. Backpropagation is a new fully connected network. Its core is
to define the error function, determine the partial derivative of each output variable by calculating its partial
derivative, and then use the chain rule to obtain its weight matrix and the gradient of the offset vector, y
update the parameters with the optimal method. The back propagation of convolutional neural network is
more complex, because both convolutional layer and pooling layer contain convolutional layer.

For a deep CNN, lqw represents the elements in row q and column w of the convolution kernel weight
matrix, na represents the offset vector of layer a, and the activation function is u = g(·) network’s loss function
is A(·). In the case of forward propagation, the convolution mapping realized by the convolution layer of

The convolution operation is to multiply and add the elements at the corresponding positions in the two
matrices. Sin embargo, if people want to carry out backpropagation, they need to rotate the convolution kernel

The convolution neural network model and deep reinforcement learning algorithm are used to extract
the features of pneumoconiosis data, and the parameters obtained through training are classified and
Reconocido, and then the early diagnosis model of pneumoconiosis is established. Convolution neural
network is a new type of deep neural network. The CNN obtained through a large number of training can
well extract the deep features of image information. The size and number of output layers of CNN can be
determined by network parameters by using different number of convolution kernels for training. The deep
reinforcement learning algorithm uses its powerful strategy reasoning ability to learn new strategies and
model parameters, so the deep reinforcement learning algorithm has a very good effect for data classification
predicción. In the early diagnosis of pneumoconiosis, random forest algorithm is widely used in related
fields because of its strong generalization ability and good stability. This paper constructs a deep reinforcement

3. ANALYSIS OF EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS OF THE APPLICATION OF MEDICAL IMAGE
TECHNOLOGY OF DL IN THE DIAGNOSIS OF PNEUMOCONIOSIS

3.1 Experimental Environment Setting

en este documento, imagen – based DL technology is used to diagnose pneumoconiosis. There are many kinds
of current DL network model architectures, and typical network model architectures include convolutional
neural networks such as ResNet, DenseNet, Inception, etc.. ResNet has a simpler structure and good
portability. Many network models are based on ResNet. en este documento, three models ResNet-50 (A),
ResNeXt-50 (B) and ResNet (C) with deconvolution structure are used to diagnose pneumoconiosis. En el
training process, the size of each chest image would change with the change of the training model, y
the size of its input would also be different.

In order to solve this problem, re sampling was conducted during the training. Resampling can be divided
into random oversampling, random undersampling, mixed sampling and manual mixed sampling. On this
base, random oversampling can effectively improve the classification effect. Por lo tanto, it adopted the
random sampling method to randomly duplicate a small number of positive groups, so as to achieve the
same chest radiograph training rate of positive and negative groups, and improve the model performance.

The statistical model can be used for diagnosis, and the accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, positive likelihood
ratio (+LR), negative likelihood ratio (- LR), F1 value (as a measure of the accuracy of the binary classification
modelo, it can be regarded as the harmonic average of the model sensitivity and prediction results) and other
indicators can be calculated to evaluate the diagnostic effect of the model. According to the results, el
ROC curve of the subjects was drawn, and AUC could be calculated. Different modes of AUC were
compared through DeLong of MedCalc 19.7.2 software. Except for the comparison between ROC curve
and AUC, other data are expressed in SPSS25.0 and percentage. Hypothesis test is bidirectional, PAG<0.05 is significant difference.

This method can not only effectively reduce the time cost and space cost, but also improve the recognition accuracy of artificial intelligence. In the first model test, 8361 chest X-ray films were collected. The three different models are labeled with test sets, and the diagnostic efficiency of the three modes is given, as shown in Figure 3.

ROC analysis and comparison of three models of the third round pneumoconiosis. Through comparative analysis of the three models, it is found that with the gradual increase of data, the diagnostic efficiency of the model is also getting higher and higher, and the difference between the AUC of the two models is significant. This is consistent with the characteristics of DL. When the data capacity increases, the diagnostic efficiency would be effectively improved. ResNet model including deconvolution structure is a current computer aided diagnosis method. Doctors diagnose patients according to the judgment of medical imaging. Because of the high sensitivity of the model, the probability of misdiagnosis can be reduced, which greatly reduces the work pressure of diagnostic personnel and improves the work efficiency of diagnosis. Deep reinforcement learning is a typical machine learning algorithm. It can use massive data or a large number of training sets to learn potential patterns and parameters in different tasks 12 Data Intelligence Corrected Proof Application of Medical Image Detection Technology Based on Deep Learning in Pneumoconiosis Diagnosis and apply them to different tasks. The new pneumoconiosis detection model established in this paper has a higher accuracy than the traditional classification method. In this paper, the DL neural network is used to study the diagnosis of pneumoconiosis. It is found that the algorithm in view of convolutional neural network has the characteristics of high accuracy, fast speed, easy learning and simple operation. By applying the DL neural network to the diagnosis of pneumoconiosis, the detection time and misdiagnosis rate can be reduced, and the survival rate of pneumoconiosis patients can be improved. This paper mainly studies the diagnosis of pneumoconiosis by combining convolutional neural network technology with lung imaging information, laying a foundation for further improving the diagnostic accuracy of pneumoconiosis. The research results show that the longer the detection time is, the stronger the learning ability of neural network is, and it is obviously helpful for disease diagnosis. It can enhance the diagnostic efficiency of pneumoconiosis and effectively avoid misdiagnosis in a way. l D o w n o a d e d f r o m h t t p : / / d i r e c t . m i t . 4. CONCLUSIONS In order to meet the goal of pneumoconiosis prevention proposed by the World Health Organization, from prevention to treatment, people must strengthen the prevention and treatment of pneumoconiosis. Different from other diseases, pneumoconiosis patients do not need to be treated, but at present, many hospitals can provide a variety of treatment methods, such as active treatment measures for pneumoconiosis patients. Therefore, this problem must be further solved. The image classification technology represented by CNN in this paper has shown good results in diagnosing pneumoconiosis, and DL has made outstanding achievements in its application. DL network has strong learning ability and computing power, and can solve practical problems well, reduce training costs, speed up system output, and adapt to practical application scenarios. By introducing different neural networks and DL algorithms, the ability of DL network to recognize dust is improved. In addition, parameters such as tumors in different parts, different tissue morphology and components can also be obtained through model learning. Therefore, a variety of medical detection methods can be applied to the field of pneumoconiosis in practical problems. However, due to the limitations of time and technology, the problems encountered in the study of pneumoconiosis were not described in detail in this paper, which would be further discussed in the future.
