PURPOSE: Accurate segmentation of rectal tumors is a basic and crucial task for diagnosis and treatment of rectal cancer. To avoid tedious manual delineation, an automatic rectal tumor segmentation model is proposed.
PURPOSE: One of the promising options for motion management in radiation therapy (RT) is the use of LINAC-compatible robotic-arm-mounted ultrasound imaging system due to its high soft tissue contrast, real-time capability, absence of ionizing radiati...
PURPOSE: To automatically detect and isolate areas of low and high stiffness temporal stability in shear wave elastography (SWE) image sequences and define their impact in chronic liver disease (CLD) diagnosis improvement by means of clinical examina...
PURPOSE: Real-time image-guided adaptive radiation therapy (IGART) requires accurate marker segmentation to resolve three-dimensional (3D) motion based on two-dimensional (2D) fluoroscopic images. Most common marker segmentation methods require prior...
PURPOSE: Chest X-ray is one of the most common examinations for diagnosing heart and lung diseases. Due to the existing of a large number of clinical cases, many automated diagnosis algorithms based on chest X-ray images have been proposed. To our kn...
PURPOSE: There has been burgeoning interest in applying machine learning methods for predicting radiotherapy outcomes. However, the imbalanced ratio of a large number of variables to a limited sample size in radiation oncology constitutes a major cha...
PURPOSE: This study suggests a lifelong learning-based convolutional neural network (LL-CNN) algorithm as a superior alternative to single-task learning approaches for automatic segmentation of head and neck (OARs) organs at risk.
PURPOSE: This work aims to develop a new framework of image quality assessment using deep learning-based model observer (DL-MO) and to validate it in a low-contrast lesion detection task that involves CT images with patient anatomical background.
PURPOSE: Dual-energy CT (DECT) has been increasingly used in imaging applications because of its capability for material differentiation. However, material decomposition suffers from magnified noise from two CT images of independent scans, leading to...
