Image-based scatter correction for cone-beam CT using flip swin transformer U-shape network.

Medical physics
BACKGROUND: Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) plays an increasingly important role in image-guided radiation therapy. However, the image quality of CBCT is severely degraded by excessive scatter contamination, especially in the abdominal region, h...

Utilization of an attentive map to preserve anatomical features for training convolutional neural-network-based low-dose CT denoiser.

Medical physics
BACKGROUND: The purpose of a convolutional neural network (CNN)-based denoiser is to increase the diagnostic accuracy of low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) imaging. To increase diagnostic accuracy, there is a need for a method that reflects the feat...

LGEANet: LSTM-global temporal convolution-external attention network for respiratory motion prediction.

Medical physics
PURPOSE: To develop a deep learning network that treats the three-dimensional respiratory motion signals as a whole and considers the inter-dimensional correlation between signals of different directions for accurate respiratory tumor motion predicti...

Deep compressed sensing MRI via a gradient-enhanced fusion model.

Medical physics
BACKGROUND: Compressed sensing has been employed to accelerate magnetic resonance imaging by sampling fewer measurements. However, conventional iterative optimization-based CS-MRI are time-consuming for iterative calculations and often share poor gen...

A novel mathematical model to generate semi-automated optimal IMRT treatment plan based on predicted 3D dose distribution and prescribed dose.

Medical physics
BACKGROUND: In recent years, with the development of artificial intelligence and deep learning techniques, it has become possible to predict the three-dimensional distribution dose (3D ) of a new patient based on the treatment plans of similar recent...

Detector shifting and deep learning based ring artifact correction method for low-dose CT.

Medical physics
BACKGROUND: In x-ray computed tomography (CT), the gain inconsistency of detector units leads to ring artifacts in the reconstructed images, seriously destroys the image structure, and is not conducive to image recognition. In addition, to reduce rad...

Synthetic-to-real domain adaptation with deep learning for fitting the intravoxel incoherent motion model of diffusion-weighted imaging.

Medical physics
BACKGROUND: Intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) is a type of diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI), and IVIM model parameters (water molecule diffusion rate D , pseudo-diffusion coefficient D , and tissue perfusion fraction F ) have been widely used in th...

Centralized contrastive loss with weakly supervised progressive feature extraction for fine-grained common thorax disease retrieval in chest x-ray.

Medical physics
BACKGROUND: Medical images have already become an essential tool for the diagnosis of many diseases. Thus a large number of medical images are being generated due to the daily routine inspection. An efficient image-based disease retrieval system will...

Towards optimal deep fusion of imaging and clinical data via a model-based description of fusion quality.

Medical physics
BACKGROUND: Due to intrinsic differences in data formatting, data structure, and underlying semantic information, the integration of imaging data with clinical data can be non-trivial. Optimal integration requires robust data fusion, that is, the pro...

Deep learning for x-ray scatter correction in dedicated breast CT.

Medical physics
BACKGROUND: Accurate correction of x-ray scatter in dedicated breast computed tomography (bCT) imaging may result in improved visual interpretation and is crucial to achieve quantitative accuracy during image reconstruction and analysis.
