Abstract

OBJECTIVE: A deep neural network (DNN) was trained to generate a multiparametric ultrasound (mpUS) volume from four input ultrasound-based modalities (acoustic radiation force impulse [ARFI] imaging, shear wave elasticity imaging [SWEI], quantitative ultrasound-midband fit [QUS-MF], and B-mode) for the detection of prostate cancer.
