Deep learning-based video-level view classification of two-dimensional transthoracic echocardiography.

Biomedical physics & engineering express
In recent years, deep learning (DL)-based automatic view classification of 2D transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) has demonstrated strong performance, but has not fully addressed key clinical requirements such as view coverage, classification accura...

Deep learning aided determination of the optimal number of detectors for photoacoustic tomography.

Biomedical physics & engineering express
Photoacoustic tomography (PAT) is a non-destructive, non-ionizing, and rapidly expanding hybrid biomedical imaging technique, yet it faces challenges in obtaining clear images due to limited data from detectors or angles. As a result, the methodology...

A comparison of different machine learning classifiers in predicting xerostomia and sticky saliva due to head and neck radiotherapy using a multi-objective, multimodal radiomics model.

Biomedical physics & engineering express
. Although radiotherapy techniques are a primary treatment for head and neck cancer (HNC), they are still associated with substantial toxicity and side effects. Machine learning (ML) based radiomics models for predicting toxicity mostly rely on featu...

Optimizing transformer-based network via advanced decoder design for medical image segmentation.

DAU-Net: a novel U-Net with dual attention for retinal vessel segmentation.

Biomedical physics & engineering express
In fundus images, precisely segmenting retinal blood vessels is important for diagnosing eye-related conditions, such as diabetic retinopathy and hypertensive retinopathy or other eye-related disorders. In this work, we propose an enhanced U-shaped n...

Multimodal multiview bilinear graph convolutional network for mild cognitive impairment diagnosis.

Biomedical physics & engineering express
Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is a significant predictor of the early progression of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and can serve as an important indicator of disease progression. However, many existing methods focus mainly on the image when processing b...

Development of a machine learning tool to predict deep inspiration breath hold requirement for locoregional right-sided breast radiation therapy patients.

Biomedical physics & engineering express
. This study presents machine learning (ML) models that predict if deep inspiration breath hold (DIBH) is needed based on lung dose in right-sided breast cancer patients during the initial computed tomography (CT) appointment.. Anatomic distances wer...

Systematic application of saliency maps to explain the decisions of convolutional neural networks for glaucoma diagnosis based on disc and cup geometry.

Biomedical physics & engineering express
This paper systematically evaluates saliency methods as explainability tools for convolutional neural networks trained to diagnose glaucoma using simplified eye fundus images that contain only disc and cup outlines. These simplified images, a methodo...
