Abstract

A kidney stone is the crystallization of acid salts and minerals in the kidneys. It is a urinary system disease with a rapidly increasing prevalence. Computed tomography (CT) imaging is preferred for imaging kidney stone disease. This study aims to compare the accuracy capabilities of deep learning models in classifying abdominal CT images. In this paper, we examine the use of pre-trained deep learning models to distinguish between patients with and without kidney stones. A dataset of 681 previously not used before images was obtained from the public hospital in Cyprus and used to train and test five pre-trained models. This study also aims to evaluate and compare deep learning models in kidney stone classification using the multi-criteria decision-making technique. The performance of the various deep learning methods is evaluated using the Preference Ranking Organization Method for Enrichment Evaluation (PROMETHEE) test. The test uses a set of very important conditions for assessment with related weights associated with the kidney stone. The overall result reflects the value of each assessment as well as the overall performance of the model. The PROMETHEE test identified the most suitable deep learning method to be the Inception-V3 algorithm.
