In this study, we aim to construct a novel deep learning model using paranasal sinus computed tomography (CT) to predict the endotype in patients with CRSwNP.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>We included patients diagnosed with CRSwNP between January 1, 2020, and April 31, 2023. The endotype of patients with CRSwNP in this study was classified as eosinophilic or non-eosinophilic. Sinus CT images (29,993 images) were retrospectively collected, including the axial, coronal, and sagittal planes, and randomly divided into training, validation, and testing sets. A residual network-18 was used to construct the deep learning model based on these images. Loss functions, accuracy functions, confusion matrices, and receiver operating characteristic curves were used to assess the predictive performance of the model. Gradient-weighted class activation mapping was performed to visualize and interpret the operating principles of the model.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>Among 251 included patients, 86 and 165 had eosinophilic or non-eosinophilic CRSwNP, respectively. The median (interquartile range) patient age was 49 years (37\u201358 years), and 153 (61.0%) were male. The deep learning model showed good discriminative performance in the training and validation sets, with areas under the curves of 0.993 and 0.966, respectively. To confirm the model generalizability, the receiver operating characteristic curve in the testing set showed good discriminative performance, with an area under the curve of 0.963. The Kappa scores of the confusion matrices in the training, validation, and testing sets were 0.985, 0.928, and 0.922, respectively. Finally, the constructed deep learning model was used to predict the endotype of all patients, resulting in an area under the curve of 0.962.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>The deep learning model developed in this study may provide a novel noninvasive method for rhinologists to evaluate endotypes in patients with CRSwNP and help develop precise treatment strategies.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1186\/s12880-024-01203-w","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,1,24]],"date-time":"2024-01-24T16:02:33Z","timestamp":1706112153000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":14,"title":["Deep learning in computed tomography to predict endotype in chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps"],"prefix":"10.1186","volume":"24","author":[{"given":"Weidong","family":"Du","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Weipiao","family":"Kang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Shixin","family":"Lai","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Zehong","family":"Cai","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yaowen","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Xiaolei","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yu","family":"Lin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,1,24]]},"reference":[{"key":"1203_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"533","DOI":"10.1111\/all.12577","volume":"70","author":"JB Shi","year":"2015","unstructured":"Shi JB, Fu QL, Zhang H, Cheng L, Wang YJ, Zhu DD, et al.
