  1. Note: PCa = prostate cancer. prostate BCs = prostate benign conditions. BPH = benign prostatic hyperplasia. *Morphologic images (axial 2D T2-weighted imaging). The study is a patient-based to to compare deep-learning with DCNN versus non-deep-learning with SIFT image feature and BoW model for the automatic classification of PCa or prostate BCs patients with morphologic images (axial 2D T2-weighted imaging).
