Diabetes is a disease that affects hundreds of millions of people worldwide. While many people are diagnosed via a blood test during a routine visit, millions of people go undiagnosed due to inability to access primary care. Opportunistic screening of CT imaging offers an opportunity to predict and diagnose diabetes on imaging, opening an avenue to decrease the undiagnosed rates. Current literature in utilizing imaging for the prediction of diabetes from CT scans has shown that markers of adiposity are strong predictors of diabetes; however, we aim to determine if the pancreas alone is sufficient to diagnose diabetes. We trained a neural network to predict and diagnose diabetes from abdominal CT scans using just a segmentation of the pancreas. We found that we were able to match the performance of state of the art algorithms using less information and we could predict diabetes status in patient populations without comorbid markers of increased fat. This study opens the opportunity for further analysis of deep learning derived imaging biomarkers in the assessment of diabetes status and disease course.
