Real-time intraoperative glioma diagnosis using fluorescence imaging and deep convolutional neural networks

ConclusionOur study demonstrates that deep CNNs are better at capturing important information from fluorescence images than surgeons ’ evaluation during patient surgery. FL-CNN is highly promising to provide pathological diagnosis intraoperatively and assist neurosurgeons to obtain maximum resection safely.Trial registrationChiCTR ChiCTR2000029402.
