Semantic segmentation plays a crucial role in cardiac magnetic resonance (MR) image analysis. Although supervised deep learning methods have made significant performance improvements, they highly rely on a large amount of pixel-wise annotated data, w...
Visualizing dynamic processes over large, three-dimensional fields of view at high speed is essential for many applications in the life sciences. Light-field microscopy (LFM) has emerged as a tool for fast volumetric image acquisition, but its effect...
PURPOSE: To investigate a deep learning approach that enables three-dimensional (3D) segmentation of an arbitrary structure of interest given a user provided two-dimensional (2D) contour for context. Such an approach could decrease delineation times ...
Deformation imaging in echocardiography has been shown to have better diagnostic and prognostic value than conventional anatomical measures such as ejection fraction. However, despite clinical availability and demonstrated efficacy, everyday clinical...
PURPOSE: Cardiac boundary segmentation of echocardiographic images is important for cardiac function assessment and disease diagnosis. However, it is challenging to segment cardiac ventricles due to the low contrast-to-noise ratio and speckle noise o...
Despite recent improvements in microscope technologies, segmenting and tracking cells in three-dimensional time-lapse images (3D + T images) to extract their dynamic positions and activities remains a considerable bottleneck in the field. We develope...
Deep reinforcement learning (DRL) has been utilized in numerous computer vision tasks, such as object detection, autonomous driving, etc. However, relatively few DRL methods have been proposed in the area of image segmentation, particularly in left v...
Magnetic resonance (MR) protocols rely on several sequences to assess pathology and organ status properly. Despite advances in image analysis, we tend to treat each sequence, here termed modality, in isolation. Taking advantage of the common informat...
