GradCAM as an explicability method to evaluate the performance of deep learning models in classifying pediatric arteriovenous malformations (AVM) in arterial spin labeling sequences (ASL)

PurposeThe study investigates the usefulness of Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) in accurately detecting arteriovenous malformations in pediatric medical imaging, particularly using arterial spin labeling sequences. It also aims to offer diagnostic explanations comparable to expert analysis.Meth...
