Automatic lesion segmentation in breast ultrasound (BUS) images aids in the diagnosis of breast cancer, the most common type of cancer in women. Accurate lesion segmentation in ultrasound images is a challenging task due to speckle noise, artifacts, ...
PURPOSE: Electronic medical records are a valuable source of information about patients' clinical status but are often free-text documents that require laborious manual review to be exploited. Techniques from computer science have been investigated, ...
SIGNIFICANCE: Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are important biomarkers for cancer management. Isolated CTCs from blood are stained to detect and enumerate CTCs. However, the staining process is laborious and moreover makes CTCs unsuitable for drug tes...
