| Sumario: | Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) are common mesenchymal tumors, and their effective treatment depends upon the mutational subtype of the <i>KIT/PDGFRA</i> genes. We established deep convolutional neural network (DCNN) models to rapidly predict drug-sensitive mutation subtypes from images of pathological tissue. A total of 5153 pathological images of 365 different GISTs from three different laboratories were collected and divided into training and validation sets. A transfer learning mechanism based on DCNN was used with four different network architectures, to identify cases with drug-sensitive mutations. The accuracy ranged from 87% to 75%. Cross-institutional inconsistency, however, was observed. Using gray-scale images resulted in a 7% drop in accuracy (accuracy 80%, sensitivity 87%, specificity 73%). Using images containing only nuclei (accuracy 81%, sensitivity 87%, specificity 73%) or cytoplasm (accuracy 79%, sensitivity 88%, specificity 67%) produced 6% and 8% drops in accuracy rate, respectively, suggesting buffering effects across subcellular components in DCNN interpretation. The proposed DCNN model successfully inferred cases with drug-sensitive mutations with high accuracy. The contribution of image color and subcellular components was also revealed. These results will help to generate a cheaper and quicker screening method for tumor gene testing. |
