Deep learning in mammography and breast histology, an overview and future trends.

Medical image analysis
Recent improvements in biomedical image analysis using deep learning based neural networks could be exploited to enhance the performance of Computer Aided Diagnosis (CAD) systems. Considering the importance of breast cancer worldwide and the promisin...

A deep learning approach for pose estimation from volumetric OCT data.

Medical image analysis
Tracking the pose of instruments is a central problem in image-guided surgery. For microscopic scenarios, optical coherence tomography (OCT) is increasingly used as an imaging modality. OCT is suitable for accurate pose estimation due to its micromet...

Multi-channel multi-scale fully convolutional network for 3D perivascular spaces segmentation in 7T MR images.

Medical image analysis
Accurate segmentation of perivascular spaces (PVSs) is an important step for quantitative study of PVS morphology. However, since PVSs are the thin tubular structures with relatively low contrast and also the number of PVSs is often large, it is chal...

Multiscale deep neural network based analysis of FDG-PET images for the early diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease.

Medical image analysis
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is one of the most common neurodegenerative diseases with a commonly seen prodromal mild cognitive impairment (MCI) phase where memory loss is the main complaint progressively worsening with behavior issues and poor self-care...

Fully-automated alignment of 3D fetal brain ultrasound to a canonical reference space using multi-task learning.

Medical image analysis
Methods for aligning 3D fetal neurosonography images must be robust to (i) intensity variations, (ii) anatomical and age-specific differences within the fetal population, and (iii) the variations in fetal position. To this end, we propose a multi-tas...

Spatial aggregation of holistically-nested convolutional neural networks for automated pancreas localization and segmentation.

Medical image analysis
Accurate and automatic organ segmentation from 3D radiological scans is an important yet challenging problem for medical image analysis. Specifically, as a small, soft, and flexible abdominal organ, the pancreas demonstrates very high inter-patient a...

DeepMitosis: Mitosis detection via deep detection, verification and segmentation networks.

Medical image analysis
Mitotic count is a critical predictor of tumor aggressiveness in the breast cancer diagnosis. Nowadays mitosis counting is mainly performed by pathologists manually, which is extremely arduous and time-consuming. In this paper, we propose an accurate...

Enhancing interpretability of automatically extracted machine learning features: application to a RBM-Random Forest system on brain lesion segmentation.

Medical image analysis
Machine learning systems are achieving better performances at the cost of becoming increasingly complex. However, because of that, they become less interpretable, which may cause some distrust by the end-user of the system. This is especially importa...

Automatic spinal cord localization, robust to MRI contrasts using global curve optimization.

Medical image analysis
During the last two decades, MRI has been increasingly used for providing valuable quantitative information about spinal cord morphometry, such as quantification of the spinal cord atrophy in various diseases. However, despite the significant improve...

Learning non-linear patch embeddings with neural networks for label fusion.

Medical image analysis
In brain structural segmentation, multi-atlas strategies are increasingly being used over single-atlas strategies because of their ability to fit a wider anatomical variability. Patch-based label fusion (PBLF) is a type of such multi-atlas approaches...
