Effect of Interventional Therapy on Iliac Venous Compression Syndrome Evaluated and Diagnosed by Artificial Intelligence Algorithm-Based Ultrasound Images

Abstract

In order to explore the efficacy of using artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm-based ultrasound images to diagnose iliac vein compression syndrome (IVCS) and assist clinicians in the diagnosis of diseases, the characteristics of vein imaging in patients with IVCS were summarized. After ultrasound image acquisition, the image data were preprocessed to construct a deep learning model to realize the position detection of venous compression and the recognition of benign and malignant lesions. In addition, a dataset was built for model evaluation. The data came from patients with thrombotic chronic venous disease (CVD) and deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in hospital. The image feature group of IVCS extracted by cavity convolution was the artificial intelligence algorithm imaging group, and the ultrasound images were directly taken as the control group without processing. Digital subtraction angiography (DSA) was performed to check the patient s veins one week in advance. Then, the patients were rolled into the AI algorithm imaging group and control group, and the correlation between May–Thurner syndrome (MTS) and AI algorithm imaging was analyzed based on DSA and ultrasound results. Satisfaction of intestinal venous stenosis (or occlusion) or formation of collateral circulation was used as a diagnostic index for MTS. Ultrasound showed that the AI algorithm imaging group had a higher percentage of good treatment effects than that of the control group. The call-up rate of the DMRF-convolutional neural network (CNN), precision, and accuracy were all superior to those of the control group. In addition, the degree of venous swelling of patients in the artificial intelligence algorithm imaging group was weak, the degree of pain relief was high after treatment, and the difference between the artificial intelligence algorithm imaging group and control group was statistically considerable (p < 0.005). Through grouped experiments, it was found that the construction of the AI imaging model was effective for the detection and recognition of lower extremity vein lesions in ultrasound images. To sum up, the ultrasound image evaluation and analysis using AI algorithm during MTS treatment was accurate and efficient, which laid a good foundation for future research, diagnosis, and treatment.
