Abstract
Infantile hemangiomas (IH) and venous malformations (VM) are two common vascular diseases that occur during childhood. Both diseases present similar features in grayscale ultrasound images; therefore, using separate grayscale ultrasound images to classify IH and VM can result in misclassification owing to insufficient comprehensible information in the single-modality images. To address this problem, this study proposes an ultrasound multimodal classification model. The model uses grayscale ultrasound images and the corresponding color ultrasound images of IH and VM as input to the feature extraction modules. The feature outputs from the two modules are spliced and fused. Finally, the fused features are input into the fully connected layer to be classified and recognized. The data consists of 1498 grayscale images and 1498 color images. The experimental results showed that the accuracy of the ultrasound multimodal classification model was 96.9%, which was higher than that of seven existing unimodal models.
