OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to evaluate the reliability of liver and spleen Hounsfield units (HU) measurements in reduced radiation computed tomography (RRCT) of the chest within the sub-millisievert range.
Diagnosing liver steatosis is an essential precaution for detecting hepatocirrhosis and liver cancer in the early stages. However, automatic diagnosis of liver steatosis from ultrasound (US) images remains challenging due to poor visual quality from ...
BACKGROUND: Fatty liver disease (FLD) has become a rampant condition. It is associated with a high rate of morbidity and mortality in a population. The condition is commonly referred as FLD. Early prediction of FLD would allow patients to take necess...
AIM: In this paper we proposed different architectures of convolutional neural network (CNN) to classify fatty liver disease in images using only pixels and diagnosis labels as input. We trained and validated our models using a dataset of 629 images ...
Quantitative ultrasound (QUS) was used to classify rabbits that were induced to have liver disease by placing them on a fatty diet for a defined duration and/or periodically injecting them with CCl. The ground truth of the liver state was based on li...
Hepatic steatosis (fatty liver) is a severe liver disease induced by the excessive accumulation of fatty acids in hepatocytes. In this study, we developed reliable models for predicting hepatic steatosis on the basis of an data set of 1041 compound...
The homodyned K (HK) distribution allows a general description of ultrasound backscatter envelope statistics with specific physical meanings. In this study, we proposed a new artificial neural network (ANN) based parameter estimation method of the HK...
BACKGROUND: Pathologist evaluation of donor liver biopsies provides information for accepting or discarding potential donor livers. Due to the urgent nature of the decision process, this is regularly performed using frozen sectioning at the time of b...
