Summary: Malignant pulmonary nodules are a main feature of lung cancer in early CT screening. With the application of deep learning in image processing, researchers are exploring methods to diagnose pulmonary nodules. Imbalanced datasets may lead to higher false-positives, but a filtering step in this study has shown promising results in reducing false-positives and achieving high accuracy.

Summary: Leukemia is a non-tumor type of cancer and early diagnosis is crucial. This study categorizes the related works on computer aided diagnosis of leukemia into Machine Learning (ML) and Deep Learning (DL) based technologies. The review found that SVM was widely used in ML based works and CNN dominated the DL category. There is a lack of works on chronic leukemia in both ML and DL categories. The study highlights the need for public datasets and new diagnostic methods for different types of leukemia, particularly chronic leukemia. The shift towards DL based studies for leukemia diagnosis is evident from 2019 onwards and there is a scarcity of reviews classifying the related works into ML and DL techniques.

Summary: Brain tumors can cause damage to the brain and surrounding tissues, blood vessels, and nerves if not treated promptly. Early detection is crucial to prevent fatal outcomes. Manual detection is challenging due to variations in tumor characteristics, thus an automatic system using a deep convolutional neural network is proposed. The system achieved high accuracy on the brain-tumor dataset and outperformed baseline methods, demonstrating its potential for application in other diseases.

Summary: This paper presents a novel automated diagnosis technique for lung nodules using three-dimensional deep convolutional neural networks and multi-layered filters. Volumetric computed tomographic images are utilized for lung nodule diagnosis, generating three-dimensional feature layers that retain temporal links between adjacent slices. Multiple activation functions at different levels of the network improve feature extraction and efficient classification. The proposed technique divides lung CT images into malignant and benign categories and outperforms the state-of-the-art in terms of various performance metrics.
