الوصف: The usefulness of sparse-sampling CT with deep learning-based reconstruction for detection of metastasis of malignant ovarian tumors was evaluated. We obtained contrast-enhanced CT images (n= 141) of ovarian cancers from a public database, whose images were randomly divided into 71 training, 20 validation, and 50 test cases. Sparse-sampling CT images were calculated slice-by-slice by software simulation. Two deep-learning models for deep learning-based reconstruction were evaluated: Residual Encoder-Decoder Convolutional Neural Network (RED-CNN) and deeper U-net. For 50 test cases, we evaluated the peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) and structural similarity (SSIM) as quantitative measures. Two radiologists independently performed a qualitative evaluation for the following points: entire CT image quality; visibility of the iliac artery; and visibility of peritoneal dissemination, liver metastasis, and lymph node metastasis. Wilcoxon signed-rank test and McNemar test were used to compare image quality and metastasis detectability between the two models, respectively. The mean PSNR and SSIM performed better with deeper U-net over RED-CNN. For all items of the visual evaluation, deeper U-net scored significantly better than RED-CNN. The metastasis detectability with deeper U-net was more than 95%. Sparse-sampling CT with deep learning-based reconstruction proved useful in detecting metastasis of malignant ovarian tumors and might contribute to reducing overall CT-radiation exposure.
