Uncertainty and interpretability in convolutional neural networks for semantic segmentation of colorectal polyps.

Medical image analysis
Colorectal polyps are known to be potential precursors to colorectal cancer, which is one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths on a global scale. Early detection and prevention of colorectal cancer is primarily enabled through manual screen...

Atrial scar quantification via multi-scale CNN in the graph-cuts framework.

Medical image analysis
Late gadolinium enhancement magnetic resonance imaging (LGE MRI) appears to be a promising alternative for scar assessment in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). Automating the quantification and analysis of atrial scars can be challenging due to...

Tracing in 2D to reduce the annotation effort for 3D deep delineation of linear structures.

Medical image analysis
The difficulty of obtaining annotations to build training databases still slows down the adoption of recent deep learning approaches for biomedical image analysis. In this paper, we show that we can train a Deep Net to perform 3D volumetric delineati...

Automatic kidney segmentation in ultrasound images using subsequent boundary distance regression and pixelwise classification networks.

Medical image analysis
It remains challenging to automatically segment kidneys in clinical ultrasound (US) images due to the kidneys' varied shapes and image intensity distributions, although semi-automatic methods have achieved promising performance. In this study, we pro...

Multi-resolution convolutional neural networks for fully automated segmentation of acutely injured lungs in multiple species.

Medical image analysis
Segmentation of lungs with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a challenging task due to diffuse opacification in dependent regions which results in little to no contrast at the lung boundary. For segmentation of severely injured lungs, loc...

Analysis of nonstandardized stress echocardiography sequences using multiview dimensionality reduction.

Medical image analysis
Alternative stress echocardiography protocols such as handgrip exercise are potentially more favorable towards large-scale screening scenarios than those currently adopted in clinical practice. However, these are still underexplored because the maxim...

Multi-indices quantification of optic nerve head in fundus image via multitask collaborative learning.

Medical image analysis
Multi-indices quantification of optic nerve head (ONH), measuring ONH appearance with multiple types of indices simultaneously from fundus images, is the most clinically significant tasks for accurate ONH assessment and ophthalmic disease diagnosis. ...

Prediction of final infarct volume from native CT perfusion and treatment parameters using deep learning.

Medical image analysis
CT Perfusion (CTP) imaging has gained importance in the diagnosis of acute stroke. Conventional perfusion analysis performs a deconvolution of the measurements and thresholds the perfusion parameters to determine the tissue status. We pursue a data-d...

'Squeeze & excite' guided few-shot segmentation of volumetric images.

Medical image analysis
Deep neural networks enable highly accurate image segmentation, but require large amounts of manually annotated data for supervised training. Few-shot learning aims to address this shortcoming by learning a new class from a few annotated support exam...

Multi-task recurrent convolutional network with correlation loss for surgical video analysis.

Medical image analysis
Surgical tool presence detection and surgical phase recognition are two fundamental yet challenging tasks in surgical video analysis as well as very essential components in various applications in modern operating rooms. While these two analysis task...
