A deep learning image-based intrinsic molecular subtype classifier of breast tumors reveals tumor heterogeneity that may affect survival.

Breast cancer research : BCR
BACKGROUND: Breast cancer intrinsic molecular subtype (IMS) as classified by the expression-based PAM50 assay is considered a strong prognostic feature, even when controlled for by standard clinicopathological features such as age, grade, and nodal s...

Automatic versus manual tuning of robot-assisted gait training in people with neurological disorders.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: In clinical practice, therapists choose the amount of assistance for robot-assisted training. This can result in outcomes that are influenced by subjective decisions and tuning of training parameters can be time-consuming. Therefore, vari...

DBT Masses Automatic Segmentation Using U-Net Neural Networks.

Computational and mathematical methods in medicine
To improve the automatic segmentation accuracy of breast masses in digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) images, we propose a DBT mass automatic segmentation algorithm by using a U-Net architecture. Firstly, to suppress the background tissue noise and e...

Assessment of utilization efficiency using machine learning techniques: A study of heterogeneity in preoperative healthcare utilization among super-utilizers.

American journal of surgery
INTRODUCTION: In the United States, 5% of patients represent up to 55% of all health care costs. This study sought to define healthcare utilization patterns among super-utilizers, as well as assess possible variation in patient outcomes.

Caring About the Human Operator: Haptic Shared Control for Enhanced User Comfort in Robotic Telemanipulation.

IEEE transactions on haptics
Haptic shared control enables a human operator and an autonomous controller to share the control of a robotic system using haptic active constraints. It has been used in robotic teleoperation for different purposes, such as navigating along paths min...

Modelling prognostic trajectories of cognitive decline due to Alzheimer's disease.

NeuroImage. Clinical
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterised by a dynamic process of neurocognitive changes from normal cognition to mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and progression to dementia. However, not all individuals with MCI develop dementia. Predicting whether ...

Computer-aided diagnosis of breast ultrasound images using ensemble learning from convolutional neural networks.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
Breast ultrasound and computer aided diagnosis (CAD) has been used to classify tumors into benignancy or malignancy. However, conventional CAD software has some problems (such as handcrafted features are hard to design; conventional CAD systems are d...

Computer-aided tumor detection in automated breast ultrasound using a 3-D convolutional neural network.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Automated breast ultrasound (ABUS) is a widely used screening modality for breast cancer detection and diagnosis. In this study, an effective and fast computer-aided detection (CADe) system based on a 3-D convolutional neur...

Segmentation of breast ultrasound image with semantic classification of superpixels.

Medical image analysis
Breast cancer is a great threat to females. Ultrasound imaging has been applied extensively in diagnosis of breast cancer. Due to the poor image quality, segmentation of breast ultrasound (BUS) image remains a very challenging task. Besides, BUS imag...
