Predicting the outcome of radiotherapy in brain metastasis by integrating the clinical and MRI-based deep learning features.

Medical physics
BACKGROUND: A considerable proportion of metastatic brain tumors progress locally despite stereotactic radiation treatment, and it can take months before such local progression is evident on follow-up imaging. Prediction of radiotherapy outcome in te...

Real time volumetric MRI for 3D motion tracking via geometry-informed deep learning.

Medical physics
PURPOSE: To develop a geometry-informed deep learning framework for volumetric MRI with sub-second acquisition time in support of 3D motion tracking, which is highly desirable for improved radiotherapy precision but hindered by the long image acquisi...

Impact of an artificial intelligence deep-learning reconstruction algorithm for CT on image quality and potential dose reduction: A phantom study.

Medical physics
BACKGROUND: Recently, computed tomography (CT) manufacturers have developed deep-learning-based reconstruction algorithms to compensate for the limitations of iterative reconstruction (IR) algorithms, such as image smoothing and the spatial resolutio...

Bayesian statistics-guided label refurbishment mechanism: Mitigating label noise in medical image classification.

Medical physics
PURPOSE: Deep neural networks (DNNs) have been widely applied in medical image classification, benefiting from its powerful mapping capability among medical images. However, these existing deep learning-based methods depend on an enormous amount of c...

CAM-Wnet: An effective solution for accurate pulmonary embolism segmentation.

Medical physics
BACKGROUND: The morbidity of pulmonary embolism (PE) is only lower than that of coronary heart disease and hypertension. Early detection, early diagnosis, and timely treatment are the keys to effectively reduce the risk of death. Nevertheless, PE seg...

Size-adaptive mediastinal multilesion detection in chest CT images via deep learning and a benchmark dataset.

Medical physics
PURPOSE: Many deep learning methods have been developed for pulmonary lesion detection in chest computed tomography (CT) images. However, these methods generally target one particular lesion type, that is, pulmonary nodules. In this work, we intend t...

Simultaneously optimizing sampling pattern for joint acceleration of multi-contrast MRI using model-based deep learning.

Medical physics
BACKGROUND: Acceleration of MR imaging (MRI) is a popular research area, and usage of deep learning for acceleration has become highly widespread in the MR community. Joint acceleration of multiple-acquisition MRI was proven to be effective over a si...

A metric learning-based method using graph neural network for pancreatic cystic neoplasm classification from CTs.

Medical physics
PURPOSE: Pancreatic cystic neoplasms (PCNs) are relatively rare neoplasms and difficult to be classified preoperatively. Ordinary deep learning methods have great potential to provide support for doctors in PCNs classification but require a quantity ...

Efficient fetal ultrasound image segmentation for automatic head circumference measurement using a lightweight deep convolutional neural network.

Medical physics
PURPOSE: Fetal head circumference (HC) is an important biometric parameter that can be used to assess fetal development in obstetric clinical practice. Most of the existing methods use deep neural network to accomplish the task of automatic fetal HC ...

Deep learning-based 3D MRI contrast-enhanced synthesis from a 2D noncontrast T2Flair sequence.

Medical physics
PURPOSE: Gadolinium-based contrast agents (GBCAs) have been successfully applied in magnetic resonance (MR) imaging to facilitate better lesion visualization. However, gadolinium deposition in the human brain raised widespread concerns recently. On t...
