OBJECTIVE: Differentiating between follicular thyroid adenoma (FTA), carcinoma (FTC), and follicular tumor with uncertain malignant potential (FT-UMP) remains challenging due to their overlapping ultrasound characteristics. This retrospective study a...
OBJECTIVE: Scoliosis, a 3-D spinal deformity, requires early detection and intervention. Ultrasound curve angle (UCA) measurement using ultrasound images has emerged as a promising diagnostic tool. However, calculating the UCA directly from ultrasoun...
Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is a painful orthopedic malformation diagnosed at birth in 1-3% of all newborns. Left untreated, DDH can lead to significant morbidity including long-term disability. Currently the condition is clinically diag...
OBJECTIVE: To develop and validate an automated deep learning-based model for focal liver lesion (FLL) segmentation in a dynamic contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) video.
OBJECTIVE: To construct and select a better model based on ultrasonic-based radiomics features and clinical characteristics for prognostic subsets of pediatric neuroblastic tumors.
OBJECTIVE: To develop and compare methods to automatically estimate regional ultrasound image quality for echocardiography separate from view correctness.
Vulnerable atherosclerotic plaque is a type of plaque that poses a significant risk of high mortality in patients with cardiovascular disease. Ultrasound has long been used for carotid atherosclerosis screening and plaque assessment due to its safety...
OBJECTIVE: Breast ultrasound (BUS) is used to classify benign and malignant breast tumors, and its automatic classification can reduce subjectivity. However, current convolutional neural networks (CNNs) face challenges in capturing global features, w...
OBJECTIVE: Breast cancer is one of the most commonly occurring cancers in women. Thus, early detection and treatment of cancer lead to a better outcome for the patient. Ultrasound (US) imaging plays a crucial role in the early detection of breast can...
OBJECTIVE: Segmentation of brain sulci in pre-term infants is crucial for monitoring their development. While magnetic resonance imaging has been used for this purpose, cranial ultrasound (cUS) is the primary imaging technique used in clinical practi...
