How can I improve Mask RCNN performance for nodule detection in Ultrasound thyroid images?

06 June 2019 1 7K Report

I am trying to use faster RCNN (in MATLAB) for nodule bounding box detection in a small thyroid Ultrasound dataset (only 233 images). Some nodules are big and some are very small. My question is that how can I improve the performance of faster RCNN in this challenging problem.

Ultrasound images are usually low-resoltion compared to other medical images. How can we improve CNN performance for US images?

Training ultrasound images with original CNN architectures directly is not satisfactory for object detection, segmentation, etc. Is it possible to improve CNN performance for these images?
