Tracing cell lineages in videos of lens-free microscopy.

Medical image analysis
In vitro experiments with cultured cells are essential for studying their growth and migration pattern and thus, for gaining a better understanding of cancer progression and its treatment. Recent progress in lens-free microscopy (LFM) has rendered it...

Disease prediction using graph convolutional networks: Application to Autism Spectrum Disorder and Alzheimer's disease.

Medical image analysis
Graphs are widely used as a natural framework that captures interactions between individual elements represented as nodes in a graph. In medical applications, specifically, nodes can represent individuals within a potentially large population (patien...

A deep learning approach for real time prostate segmentation in freehand ultrasound guided biopsy.

Medical image analysis
Targeted prostate biopsy, incorporating multi-parametric magnetic resonance imaging (mp-MRI) and its registration with ultrasound, is currently the state-of-the-art in prostate cancer diagnosis. The registration process in most targeted biopsy system...

Ω-Net (Omega-Net): Fully automatic, multi-view cardiac MR detection, orientation, and segmentation with deep neural networks.

Medical image analysis
Pixelwise segmentation of the left ventricular (LV) myocardium and the four cardiac chambers in 2-D steady state free precession (SSFP) cine sequences is an essential preprocessing step for a wide range of analyses. Variability in contrast, appearanc...

Automated comprehensive Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis assessment using MVC-Net.

Medical image analysis
Automated quantitative estimation of spinal curvature is an important task for the ongoing evaluation and treatment planning of Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS). It solves the widely accepted disadvantage of manual Cobb angle measurement (time-c...

Monitoring tool usage in surgery videos using boosted convolutional and recurrent neural networks.

Medical image analysis
This paper investigates the automatic monitoring of tool usage during a surgery, with potential applications in report generation, surgical training and real-time decision support. Two surgeries are considered: cataract surgery, the most common surgi...

VP-Nets : Efficient automatic localization of key brain structures in 3D fetal neurosonography.

Medical image analysis
Three-dimensional (3D) fetal neurosonography is used clinically to detect cerebral abnormalities and to assess growth in the developing brain. However, manual identification of key brain structures in 3D ultrasound images requires expertise to perfor...

A deep Boltzmann machine-driven level set method for heart motion tracking using cine MRI images.

Medical image analysis
Heart motion tracking for radiation therapy treatment planning can result in effective motion management strategies to minimize radiation-induced cardiotoxicity. However, automatic heart motion tracking is challenging due to factors that include the ...

Deep embedding convolutional neural network for synthesizing CT image from T1-Weighted MR image.

Medical image analysis
Recently, more and more attention is drawn to the field of medical image synthesis across modalities. Among them, the synthesis of computed tomography (CT) image from T1-weighted magnetic resonance (MR) image is of great importance, although the mapp...

Fully automatic detection and segmentation of abdominal aortic thrombus in post-operative CTA images using Deep Convolutional Neural Networks.

Medical image analysis
Computerized Tomography Angiography (CTA) based follow-up of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms (AAA) treated with Endovascular Aneurysm Repair (EVAR) is essential to evaluate the progress of the patient and detect complications. In this context, accurate qu...
