<![CDATA[Medical image classification is considered as very important field of diagnosis and treatment of neurological disorders, which include stroke, tumors, and hemorrhages, it can used to facilitate timely medical intervention. A hybrid quantum-classical convolutional neural network (QCNN) is presented by combining quantum information processing with classical deep learning techniques for improved feature extraction and classification accuracy. The model combines convolutional neural network (CNN), which handles initial feature extraction with a PennyLane and TensorFlow based layer that employs quantum entanglement and superposition principles to enhance classification performance. The model is trained and tested over a computed tomography (CT) scan image dataset which has four classes (normal, stroke, tumor, and hemorrhage). Various learning rates are tested and employed a hybrid backpropagation method to improve efficiency. Confusion matrices, region of conversion receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, and plots for the training convergence that all pointed to promising classification accuracy were derived with a detailed analysis accordingly. Overall, the results indicate that combining quantum computing with deep learning architectures could improve classification performance at a lowest computational cost. The results suggest the viability of hybrid quantum-classical models for medical imaging applications and indicate that quantum computing is a promising direction for enhancing diagnostic accuracy in the area of radiology.]]>
