PURPOSE: In this study, we aimed to develop a novel prediction model to identify patients in need of a non-contrast head CT exam during emergency department (ED) triage.
Dual-energy computed tomography (DECT) imaging plays an important role in advanced imaging applications due to its material decomposition capability. Image-domain decomposition operates directly on CT images using linear matrix inversion, but the dec...

This paper presents an advanced approach for foetal brain abnormalities diagnostic by integrating significant biometric features in the identification process. In foetal anomaly diagnosis, manual evaluation of foetal behaviour in ultrasound images is...
It is essential to measure anatomical parameters in prenatal ultrasound images for the growth and development of the fetus, which is highly relied on obtaining a standard plane. However, the acquisition of a standard plane is, in turn, highly subject...
Many medical image processing and analysis operations can benefit a great deal from prior information encoded in the form of models/atlases to capture variations over a population in form, shape, anatomic layout, and image appearance of objects. Howe...
The development of personalized human head models from medical images has become an important topic in the electromagnetic dosimetry field, including the optimization of electrostimulation, safety assessments, etc. Human head models are commonly gene...

PURPOSE: The first aim of this work is to present a novel deep convolution neural network (DCNN) multiplane approach and compare it to single-plane prediction of synthetic computed tomography (sCT) by using the real computed tomography (CT) as ground...
OBJECTIVE: Ultrasound-based fetal biometric measurements, such as head circumference (HC) and biparietal diameter (BPD), are frequently used to evaluate gestational age and diagnose fetal central nervous system pathology. Because manual measurements ...
Within this work we present AMiCUS, a Human-Robot Interface that enables tetraplegics to control a multi-degree of freedom robot arm in real-time using solely head motion, empowering them to perform simple manipulation tasks independently. The articl...
Advances in computer vision and machine learning algorithms have enabled researchers to extract facial expression data from face video recordings with greater ease and speed than standard manual coding methods, which has led to a dramatic increase in...
