Neural Network Detection of Pacemakers for MRI Safety.

Flagging the presence of cardiac devices such as pacemakers before an MRI scan is essential to allow appropriate safety checks. We assess the accuracy with which a machine learning model can classify the presence or absence of a pacemaker on pre-existing chest radiographs. A total of 7973 chest radi...

      ab: Flagging the presence of cardiac devices such as pacemakers before an MRI scan is essential to allow appropriate safety checks. We assess the accuracy with which a machine learning model can classify the presence or absence of a pacemaker on pre-existing chest radiographs. A total of 7973 chest radiographs were collected, 3996 with pacemakers visible and 3977 without. Images were identified from information available on the radiology information system (RIS) and correlated with report text. Manual review of images by two board certified radiologists was performed to ensure correct labeling. The data set was divided into training, validation, and a hold-back test set. The data were used to retrain a pre-trained image classification neural network. Final model performance was assessed on the test set. Accuracy of 99.67% on the test set was achieved. Re-testing the final model on the full training and validation data revealed a few additional misclassified examples which are further analyzed. Neural network image classification could be used to screen for the presence of cardiac devices, in addition to current safety processes, providing notification of device presence in advance of safety questionnaires. Computational power to run the model is low. Further work on misclassified examples could improve accuracy on edge cases. The focus of many healthcare applications of computer vision techniques has been for diagnosis and guiding management. This work illustrates an application of computer vision image classification to enhance current processes and improve patient safety.
