PET image denoising using unsupervised deep learning.

European journal of nuclear medicine and molecular imaging
PURPOSE: Image quality of positron emission tomography (PET) is limited by various physical degradation factors. Our study aims to perform PET image denoising by utilizing prior information from the same patient. The proposed method is based on unsup...

An investigation of quantitative accuracy for deep learning based denoising in oncological PET.

Physics in medicine and biology
Reducing radiation dose is important for PET imaging. However, reducing injection doses causes increased image noise and low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), subsequently affecting diagnostic and quantitative accuracies. Deep learning methods have shown ...

Multiscale brain MRI super-resolution using deep 3D convolutional networks.

Computerized medical imaging and graphics : the official journal of the Computerized Medical Imaging Society
The purpose of super-resolution approaches is to overcome the hardware limitations and the clinical requirements of imaging procedures by reconstructing high-resolution images from low-resolution acquisitions using post-processing methods. Super-reso...

Accurate automated Cobb angles estimation using multi-view extrapolation net.

Medical image analysis
Accurate automated quantitative Cobb angle estimation that quantitatively evaluates scoliosis plays an important role in scoliosis diagnosis and treatment. It solves the problem of the traditional manual method, which is the current clinical standard...

k-Space deep learning for reference-free EPI ghost correction.

Magnetic resonance in medicine
PURPOSE: Nyquist ghost artifacts in echo planar imaging (EPI) are originated from phase mismatch between the even and odd echoes. However, conventional correction methods using reference scans often produce erroneous results especially in high-field ...

A convolutional neural network for ultra-low-dose CT denoising and emphysema screening.

Medical physics
PURPOSE: Reducing dose level to achieve ALARA is an important task in diagnostic and therapeutic applications of computed tomography (CT) imaging. Effective image quality enhancement strategies are crucial to compensate for the degradation caused by ...

Enhancing images of shale formations by a hybrid stochastic and deep learning algorithm.

Neural networks : the official journal of the International Neural Network Society
Accounting for the morphology of shale formations, which represent highly heterogeneous porous media, is a difficult problem. Although two- or three-dimensional images of such formations may be obtained and analyzed, they either do not capture the na...

Cell mitosis event analysis in phase contrast microscopy images using deep learning.

Medical image analysis
In this paper, we solve the problem of mitosis event localization and its stage localization in time-lapse phase-contrast microscopy images. Our method contains three steps: first, we formulate a Low-Rank Matrix Recovery (LRMR) model to find salient ...

Extraction of the cardiac waveform from simultaneous multislice fMRI data using slice sorted averaging and a deep learning reconstruction filter.

NeuroImage
Cardiac signal contamination has long confounded the analysis of blood-oxygenation-level-dependent (BOLD) functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). Cardiac pulsation results in significant BOLD signal changes, especially in and around blood vesse...
