PURPOSE: Cardiac boundary segmentation of echocardiographic images is important for cardiac function assessment and disease diagnosis. However, it is challenging to segment cardiac ventricles due to the low contrast-to-noise ratio and speckle noise o...
PURPOSE: Iterative convolutional neural networks (CNNs) which resemble unrolled learned iterative schemes have shown to consistently deliver state-of-the-art results for image reconstruction problems across different imaging modalities. However, beca...
PURPOSE: The present study assessed the predictive value of peritumoral regions on three tumor tasks, and further explored the influence of peritumors with different sizes.
PURPOSE: The worldwide spread of the SARS-CoV-2 virus poses unprecedented challenges to medical resources and infection prevention and control measures around the world. In this case, a rapid and effective detection method for COVID-19 can not only r...
PURPOSE: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-guided transperineal prostate biopsy has been practiced since the early 2000s. The technique often suffers from targeting error due to deviation of the needle as a result of physical interaction between the n...
The era of real-time radiotherapy is upon us. Robotic and gimbaled linac tracking are clinically established technologies with the clinical realization of couch tracking in development. Multileaf collimators (MLCs) are a standard equipment for most c...
PURPOSE: To develop a two-stage three-dimensional (3D) convolutional neural networks (CNNs) for fully automated volumetric segmentation of pancreas on computed tomography (CT) and to further evaluate its performance in the context of intra-reader and...
PURPOSE: External beam radiotherapy (EBRT) treatment planning requires a fast and accurate method of calculating the dose delivered by a clinical treatment plan. However, existing methods of calculating dose distributions have limitations. Monte Carl...
OBJECTIVE: Computed tomography (CT) provides rich diagnosis and severity information of COVID-19 in clinical practice. However, there is no computerized tool to automatically delineate COVID-19 infection regions in chest CT scans for quantitative ass...
PURPOSE: Automatic liver segmentation from abdominal computed tomography (CT) images is a fundamental task in computer-assisted liver surgery programs. Many liver segmentation algorithms are very sensitive to fuzzy boundaries and heterogeneous pathol...
