Spinal cord tumors lead to neurological morbidity and mortality. Being able to obtain morphometric quantification (size, location, growth rate) of the tumor, edema, and cavity can result in improved monitoring and treatment planning. Such quantificat...
In this paper, we propose an automatic cell counting framework for stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) images, which can assist tumor tissue characteristic analysis, cancer diagnosis, and surgery planning processes. SRS microscopy has promoted tumor di...
Tumor types are classically distinguished based on biopsies of the tumor itself, as well as a radiological interpretation using diverse MRI modalities. In the current study, the overarching goal is to demonstrate that primary (glioblastomas) and seco...
BACKGROUND: In medical diagnosis of brain, the role of multi-modal medical image fusion is becoming more prominent. Among them, there is no lack of filtering layered fusion and newly emerging deep learning algorithms. The former has a fast fusion spe...
Brain tumors are among the most serious cancers that can have a negative impact on a person's quality of life. The magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) analysis detects abnormal cell growth in the skull. Recently, machine learning models such as artifici...
BACKGROUND: Glioma is a malignant brain tumor; its location is complex and is difficult to remove surgically. To diagnosis the brain tumor, doctors can precisely diagnose and localize the disease using medical images. However, the computer-assisted d...
Precise methods for quantifying drug accumulation in brain tissue are currently very limited, challenging the development of new therapeutics for brain disorders. Transcardial perfusion is instrumental for removing the intravascular fraction of an in...
BACKGROUND: Laser-interstitial thermal therapy (LITT) is an ablative treatment based on a surgically implanted laser-emitting catheter to induce a focal ablation of the pathological tissue. The main indications in neurosurgery are primary brain tumor...
BACKGROUND: Although biopsy is the gold standard for tumour grading, being invasive, this procedure also proves fatal to the brain. Thus, non-invasive methods for brain tumour grading are urgently needed. Here, a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-base...
Brain tumor is not most common, but truculent type of cancer. Therefore, correct prediction of its aggressiveness nature at an early stage would influence the treatment strategy. Although several diagnostic methods based on different modalities exist...
