Diagnostic accuracy of texture analysis and machine learning for quantification of liver fibrosis in MRI: correlation with MR elastography and histopathology.

European radiology
OBJECTIVES: To compare the diagnostic accuracy of texture analysis (TA)-derived parameters combined with machine learning (ML) of non-contrast-enhanced T1w and T2w fat-saturated (fs) images with MR elastography (MRE) for liver fibrosis quantification...

Physics-guided machine learning for 3-D quantitative quasi-static elasticity imaging.

Physics in medicine and biology
We present a 3D extension of the Autoprogressive Method (AutoP) for quantitative quasi-static ultrasonic elastography (QUSE) based on sparse sampling of force-displacement measurements. Compared to current model-based inverse methods, our approach re...

Deep learning radiomics can predict axillary lymph node status in early-stage breast cancer.

Nature communications
Accurate identification of axillary lymph node (ALN) involvement in patients with early-stage breast cancer is important for determining appropriate axillary treatment options and therefore avoiding unnecessary axillary surgery and complications. Her...

Neural-network-based Motion Tracking for Breast Ultrasound Strain Elastography: An Initial Assessment of Performance and Feasibility.

Ultrasonic imaging
Accurate tracking of tissue motion is critically important for several ultrasound elastography methods. In this study, we investigate the feasibility of using three published convolution neural network (CNN) models built for optical flow (hereafter r...

Transfer learning radiomics based on multimodal ultrasound imaging for staging liver fibrosis.

European radiology
OBJECTIVES: To propose a transfer learning (TL) radiomics model that efficiently combines the information from gray scale and elastogram ultrasound images for accurate liver fibrosis grading.

A New Multimodel Machine Learning Framework to Improve Hepatic Fibrosis Grading Using Ultrasound Elastography Systems from Different Vendors.

Ultrasound in medicine & biology
The purpose of the work described here was to determine if the diagnostic performance of point and 2-D shear wave elastography (pSWE; 2-DSWE) using shear wave velocity (SWV) with a new machine learning (ML) technique applied to systems from different...

A Deep Learning Framework for Single-Sided Sound Speed Inversion in Medical Ultrasound.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
OBJECTIVE: Ultrasound elastography is gaining traction as an accessible and useful diagnostic tool for things such as, cancer detection and differentiation and thyroid disease diagnostics. Unfortunately, state-of-the-art shear wave imaging techniques...

Learning the implicit strain reconstruction in ultrasound elastography using privileged information.

Medical image analysis
Quasi-static ultrasound elastography is an importance imaging technology to assess the conditions of various diseases through reconstructing the tissue strain from radio frequency data. State-of-the-art strain reconstruction techniques suffer from th...
