BACKGROUND: Dual-energy CT with virtual noncalcium (VNCa) images allows the evaluation of focal intramedullary bone marrow involvement in patients with multiple myeloma. However, current commercial VNCa techniques suffer from excessive image noise an...
BACKGROUND: Time-resolved 4D cone beam-computed tomography (4D-CBCT) allows a daily assessment of patient anatomy and respiratory motion. However, 4D-CBCTs suffer from imaging artifacts that affect the CT number accuracy and prevent accurate proton d...
PURPOSE: In clinical practice, medical image analysis has played a key role in disease diagnosis. One of the important steps is to perform an accurate organ or tissue segmentation for assisting medical professionals in making correct diagnoses. Despi...
BACKGROUND: Accurate and automated brain tumor segmentation from multi-modality MR images plays a significant role in tumor treatment. However, the existing approaches mainly focus on the fusion of multi-modality while ignoring the correlation betwee...
BACKGROUND: Auxiliary diagnosis and monitoring of lung diseases based on lung ultrasound (LUS) images is important clinical research. A-line is one of the most common indicators of LUS that can offer support for the assessment of lung diseases. A tra...
BACKGROUND: Semisupervised strategy has been utilized to alleviate issues from segmentation applications due to challenges in collecting abundant annotated segmentation masks, which is an essential prerequisite for training high-performance 3D convol...
OBJECTIVE: Accurate segmentation of the lung nodule in computed tomography images is a critical component of a computer-assisted lung cancer detection/diagnosis system. However, lung nodule segmentation is a challenging task due to the heterogeneity ...
PURPOSE: To develop a novel multimodal data fusion model by incorporating computed tomography (CT) images and clinical variables based on deep learning for predicting the invasiveness risk of stage I lung adenocarcinoma that manifests as ground-glass...
PURPOSE: Recently, deep learning-based methods have been established to denoise the low-count positron emission tomography (PET) images and predict their standard-count image counterparts, which could achieve reduction of injected dosage and scan tim...
BACKGROUND: There has been growing interest in low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) for reducing the X-ray radiation to patients. However, LDCT always suffers from complex noise in reconstructed images. Although deep learning-based methods have shown ...
