What the paper says

This study proposed a bidirectional closed-loop deep learning framework integrating convolutional neural network, U-Net, and transformers to achieve automated anatomical image annotation and clinical knowledge association mining. This framework addressed issues of high manual dependency, low efficiency, and poor consistency in medical annotation. The framework enhanced semantic consistency through cross-modal feature fusion and knowledge graph alignment, while introducing sparse mapping and conflict detection feedback mechanisms to improve cross-institution generalization capabilities. Experiments demonstrated that this method achieved approximately 6% improvement in accuracy, 8–12% increase in recall, and 8–12% boost in knowledge matching rate. In clinical trials, physician annotation time decreased by an average of 18%, with clinicians showing greater preference for outputs accompanied by explanation chains. This research not only enhanced annotation efficiency and consistency but also strengthened clinical decision support capabilities, propelling medical artificial intelligence from “data-driven” to a “knowledge-empowered” approach.
