OBJECTIVE: To introduce local binary pattern (LBP) texture analysis to cartilage osteoarthritis (OA) research and compare the performance of different classification systems in discrimination of OA subjects from healthy controls using gray-level co-o...
INTRODUCTION: The current technological developments in medical imaging are centred largely on the increasing integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into all equipment modalities. This survey assessed the perspectives of African radiographers on...
BACKGROUND: Identifying individuals at risk for future hospitalization or death has been a major priority of population health management strategies. High-risk individuals are a heterogeneous group, and existing studies describing heterogeneity in hi...
BACKGROUND: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has caused a global pandemic that has raised worldwide concern. This study aims to investigate the correlation between the extent of lung infection and relevant clinical laboratory testing indicators in...

INTRODUCTION: The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) systems into medical imaging is advancing the practice and patient care. It is thought to further revolutionise the entire field in the near future. This study explored Ghanaian radiograph...
PURPOSE: To compare the performance of a novel convolutional neural network (CNN) classifier and human graders in detecting angle closure in EyeCam (Clarity Medical Systems, Pleasanton, California, USA) goniophotographs.
PURPOSE: To develop a deep learning (DL) system that can detect referable diabetic retinopathy (RDR) and vision-threatening diabetic retinopathy (VTDR) from images obtained on ultra-widefield scanning laser ophthalmoscope (UWF-SLO).
PURPOSE: To evaluate the predictive usefulness of quantitative imaging biomarkers, acquired automatically from OCT scans, of cross-sectional and future visual outcomes of patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD) starting anti-...
