Abstract

BACKGROUND: Detection and localization of cerebral microbleeds (CMBs) is crucial for disease diagnosis and treatment planning. However, CMB detection is labor-intensive, time-consuming, and challenging owing to its visual similarity to mimics. This study aimed to validate the performance of a three-dimensional (3D) deep learning model that not only detects CMBs but also identifies their anatomic location in real-world settings.
