This study addresses the critical need for robust classification models tailored to TSC in pediatric patients, introducing QResNet,a novel deep learning model seamlessly integrating conventional convolutional neural networks with quantum neural networks. The model incorporates a two-layer quantum layer (QL), comprising ZZFeatureMap and Ansatz layers, strategically designed for processing classical data within a quantum framework. A comprehensive evaluation, demonstrates the superior performance of QResNet in TSC MRI image classification compared to conventional 3D-ResNet models. These compelling findings underscore the potential of quantum computing to revolutionize medical imaging and diagnostics.Remarkably, this method surpasses conventional CNNs in accuracy and Area Under the Curve (AUC) metrics with the current dataset. Future research endeavors may focus on exploring the scalability and practical implementation of quantum algorithms in real-world medical imaging scenarios. ## Recorded benchmark results A research result applies to its stated dataset, split, metric and evaluation configuration. Compare like-for-like settings, preserve the metric's unit and direction, and distinguish paper-reported results from independent reproduction. The best result recorded here is not a claim of exhaustive, current global coverage. ## Original sources and implementation [Original paper]() [PDF]()
