IConDiffNet: an unsupervised inverse-consistent diffeomorphic network for medical image registration.

Physics in medicine and biology
Deformable image registration (DIR) is critical in many medical imaging applications. Diffeomorphic transformations, which are smooth invertible mappings with smooth inverses preserve topological properties and are an anatomically plausible means of ...

Impact of pectoral muscle removal on deep-learning-based breast cancer risk prediction.

Physics in medicine and biology
State-of-the-art breast cancer risk (BCR) prediction models have been originally trained on mammograms with pectoral muscle (PM) included. This study investigated whether excluding PM during training/fine-tuning improves the model's BCR discriminatio...

Multi-task learning for automated contouring and dose prediction in radiotherapy.

Physics in medicine and biology
. Deep learning (DL)-based automated contouring and treatment planning has been proven to improve the efficiency and accuracy of radiotherapy. However, conventional radiotherapy treatment planning process has the automated contouring and treatment pl...

Multi-label segmentation of carpal bones in MRI using expansion transfer learning.

Physics in medicine and biology
The purpose of this study was to develop a robust deep learning approach trained with a smallMRI dataset for multi-label segmentation of all eight carpal bones for therapy planning and wrist dynamic analysis.A small dataset of 15 3.0-T MRI scans from...

MLAR-UNet: LDCT image denoising based on U-Net with multiple lightweight attention-based modules and residual reinforcement.

Physics in medicine and biology
Computed tomography (CT) is a crucial medical imaging technique which uses x-ray radiation to identify cancer tissues. Since radiation poses a significant health risk, low dose acquisition procedures need to be adopted. However, low-dose CT (LDCT) ca...

Deep learning-based quick MLC sequencing for MRI-guided online adaptive radiotherapy: a feasibility study for pancreatic cancer patients.

Physics in medicine and biology
One bottleneck of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-guided online adaptive radiotherapy is the time-consuming daily online replanning process. The current leaf sequencing method takes up to 10 min, with potential dosimetric degradation and small segme...

A dual-domain network with division residual connection and feature fusion for CBCT scatter correction.

Physics in medicine and biology
This study aims to propose a dual-domain network that not only reduces scatter artifacts but also retains structure details in cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT).The proposed network comprises a projection-domain sub-network and an image-domain sub...

Continuous implicit neural representation for arbitrary super-resolution of system matrix in magnetic particle imaging.

Physics in medicine and biology
. Magnetic particle imaging (MPI) is a novel imaging technique that uses magnetic fields to detect tracer materials consisting of magnetic nanoparticles. System matrix (SM) based image reconstruction is essential for achieving high image quality in M...

Syn2Real: synthesis of CT image ring artifacts for deep learning-based correction.

Physics in medicine and biology
. We strive to overcome the challenges posed by ring artifacts in x-ray computed tomography (CT) by developing a novel approach for generating training data for deep learning-based methods. Training such networks require large, high quality, datasets...

Self-supervised parametric map estimation for multiplexed PET with a deep image prior.

Physics in medicine and biology
Multiplexed positron emission tomography (mPET) imaging allows simultaneous observation of physiological and pathological information from multiple tracers in a single PET scan. Although supervised deep learning has demonstrated superior performance ...
