We studied the dosimetry of single-isocenter treatment plans generated to treat a solitary intracranial lesion using linac-based stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS). A common metric for evaluating SRS plan quality is the volume of normal brain tissue irr...
Automatic decision support systems have gained importance in health sector in recent years. In parallel with recent developments in the fields of artificial intelligence and image processing, embedded systems are also used in decision support systems...
PURPOSE: To assess the performance of texture analysis of conventional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) maps in predicting IDH1 status in high-grade gliomas (HGG).
BACKGROUND AND AIM: In deep learning, the sigmoid function is unsuccessfully used for the multiclass classification of the brain tumour due to its limit of binary classification. This study aims to increase the classification accuracy by reducing the...

Computer aided diagnostic (CAD) has become a significant tool in expanding patient quality-of-life by reducing human errors in diagnosis. CAD can expedite decision-making on complex clinical data automatically. Since brain diseases can be fatal, rapi...
BACKGROUND: Significant amounts of health data are stored as free-text within clinical reports, letters, discharge summaries and notes. Busy clinicians have limited time to read such large amounts of free-text and are at risk of information overload ...
BACKGROUND: Glioblastoma (GBM) is a highly aggressive primary brain tumor. Currently, the suggested line of action is the surgical resection followed by radiotherapy and treatment with the adjuvant temozolomide, a DNA alkylating agent. However, the a...
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the potential value of the machine learning (ML)-based MRI texture analysis for predicting 1p/19q codeletion status of lower-grade gliomas (LGG), using various state-of-the-art ML algorithms.
Brain tumor is one of the most death defying diseases nowadays. The tumor contains a cluster of abnormal cells grouped around the inner portion of human brain. It affects the brain by squeezing/ damaging healthy tissues. It also amplifies intra crani...
