Abstract
Kidney stone, cyst and tumour categorization are the more complex task for the radiologist to diagnosis the problem because these images are similar to one another for less experienced radiologist. An experienced radiologist may categorize the image more accurately. If the diagnosis of disease is precise, then the problem can be solved in the early stage or suppressed using medication. For this purpose, deep learning techniques can be used for automatic detection and categorization of the kidney-related problem. This paper will give a clear set of information about dataset selection and pre-processing, and the architecture used in various papers are discussed. Based on the understanding of VGG -16 and AlexNet, the proposed model was used for the classification of lesions in the kidney. The model gives an accuracy of 79%.
