A Deep Learning Model for Automatically Quantifying the Anterior Segment in Ultrasound Biomicroscopy Images of Implantable Collamer Lens Candidates.

Ultrasound in medicine & biology
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to develop and evaluate a deep learning-based model that could automatically measure anterior segment (AS) parameters on preoperative ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM) images of implantable Collamer lens (ICL) surgery candida...

An Artificial Intelligence-Driven Approach for Automatic Evaluation of Right-to-Left Shunt Grades in Saline-Contrasted Transthoracic Echocardiography.

Ultrasound in medicine & biology
BACKGROUND: Intracardiac or pulmonary right-to-left shunt (RLS) is a common cardiac anomaly associated with an increased risk of neurological disorders, specifically cryptogenic stroke. Saline-contrasted transthoracic echocardiography (scTTE) is ofte...

Computer-Aided Diagnosis of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy Based on Texture Pattern Recognition on Ultrasound Images Using Unsupervised Clustering Algorithms and Deep Learning.

Ultrasound in medicine & biology
OBJECTIVE: The feasibility of using deep learning in ultrasound imaging to predict the ambulatory status of patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) was previously explored for the first time. The present study further used clustering algorith...

Localization and Risk Stratification of Thyroid Nodules in Ultrasound Images Through Deep Learning.

Ultrasound in medicine & biology
OBJECTIVE: Deep learning algorithms have commonly been used for the differential diagnosis between benign and malignant thyroid nodules. The aim of the study described here was to develop an integrated system that combines a deep learning model and a...

Automated Spontaneous Echo Contrast Detection Using a Multisequence Attention Convolutional Neural Network.

Ultrasound in medicine & biology
OBJECTIVE: Spontaneous echo contrast (SEC) is a vascular ultrasound finding associated with increased thromboembolism risk. However, identification requires expert determination and clinician time to report. We developed a deep learning model that ca...

Diagnostic Performance of Deep Learning in Video-Based Ultrasonography for Breast Cancer: A Retrospective Multicentre Study.

Ultrasound in medicine & biology
OBJECTIVE: Although ultrasound is a common tool for breast cancer screening, its accuracy is often operator-dependent. In this study, we proposed a new automated deep-learning framework that extracts video-based ultrasound data for breast cancer scre...

Mitral Valve Segmentation and Tracking from Transthoracic Echocardiography Using Deep Learning.

Ultrasound in medicine & biology
OBJECTIVE: Valvular heart diseases (VHDs) pose a significant public health burden, and deciding the best treatment strategy necessitates accurate assessment of heart valve function. Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) is the key modality to evaluate...

Automated Measurement of Ovary Development in Atlantic Salmon Using Deep Learning.

Ultrasound in medicine & biology
OBJECTIVE: Salmon breeding companies control the egg stripping period through environmental change, which triggers the need to identify the state of maturation. Ultrasound imaging of the salmon ovary is a proven non-invasive tool for this purpose; ho...

BPSegSys: A Brachial Plexus Nerve Trunk Segmentation System Using Deep Learning.

Ultrasound in medicine & biology
OBJECTIVE: Ultrasound-guided nerve block anesthesia (UGNB) is a high-tech visual nerve block anesthesia method that can be used to observe the target nerve and its surrounding structures, the puncture needle's advancement and local anesthetics spread...
