PURPOSE: The ability of ultrasound to assess pathology is increasing with the development of quantitative parameters. Among these are a set of parameters derived from the recent H-scan analysis of subresolvable scattering. The emergence of these quan...
PURPOSE: Positron emission tomography (PET) imaging with various tracers is increasingly used in Alzheimer's disease (AD) studies. However, access to PET scans using new or less-available tracers with sophisticated synthesis and short half-life isoto...
PURPOSE: Tc-MDP single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) is an established tool for diagnosing lumbar stress, a common cause of low back pain (LBP) in pediatric patients. However, detection of small stress lesions is complicated by the low...
PURPOSE: Missing or discrepant imaging volume is a common challenge in deformable image registration (DIR). To minimize the adverse impact, we train a neural network to synthesize cropped portions of head and neck CT's and then test its use in DIR.
PURPOSE: Radiation therapy treatment planning is a trial-and-error, often time-consuming process. An approximately optimal dose distribution corresponding to a specific patient's anatomy can be predicted by using pre-trained deep learning (DL) models...
PURPOSE: Breast mass segmentation in mammograms remains a crucial yet challenging topic in computer-aided diagnosis systems. Existing algorithms mainly used mass-centered patches to achieve mass segmentation, which is time-consuming and unstable in c...
PURPOSE: Deformable image registration is a fundamental task in medical imaging. Due to the large computational complexity of deformable registration of volumetric images, conventional iterative methods usually face the tradeoff between the registrat...
PURPOSE: Computed tomography (CT)-based attenuation correction (CTAC) in single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) is highly accurate, but it requires hybrid SPECT/CT instruments and additional radiation exposure. To obtain attenuation corre...
PURPOSE: Radiation therapy treatment planning is a time-consuming and iterative manual process. Consequently, plan quality varies greatly between and within institutions. Artificial intelligence shows great promise in improving plan quality and reduc...
