PURPOSE: We accelerate a pathline-based cardiovascular model building method by training machine learning models to directly predict vessel lumen surface points from computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR) medical image data.
Deep ultrasound localization microscopy (deep-ULM) allows sub-wavelength resolution imaging with deep learning. However, the injection of contrast agents (CAs) in deep-ULM is debatable because of their potential risk. In this study, we propose a deep...

Motivated by the search for new strategies for fitting a material model, a new approach is explored in the present work. The use of numerical and complex algorithms based on machine learning techniques such as support vector machines for regression, ...
Black-blood (BB) imaging is used to complement contrast-enhanced 3D gradient-echo (CE 3D-GRE) imaging for detecting brain metastases, requiring additional scan time. In this study, we proposed deep-learned 3D BB imaging with an auto-labelling techniq...
BACKGROUND: The emergence and development of robot assistant interventional vascular surgery technologies have benefited many patients with cardiovascular or cerebrovascular diseases. Due to the absence of effective training measures, these new advan...
