BACKGROUND: Over the past decade, new technologies, devices, and methods have been developed to assist in the diagnosis of cutaneous melanocytic lesions.
Multi-atlas segmentation approach is one of the most widely-used image segmentation techniques in biomedical applications. There are two major challenges in this category of methods, i.e., atlas selection and label fusion. In this paper, we propose a...
Purpose To determine the feasibility of using a deep learning approach to detect cartilage lesions (including cartilage softening, fibrillation, fissuring, focal defects, diffuse thinning due to cartilage degeneration, and acute cartilage injury) wit...
Purpose To compare biparametric contrast-free radiomic machine learning (RML), mean apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC), and radiologist assessment for characterization of prostate lesions detected during prospective MRI interpretation. Materials an...
Automated whole breast ultrasound (ABUS) has been widely used as a screening modality for examination of breast abnormalities. Reviewing hundreds of slices produced by ABUS, however, is time consuming. Therefore, in this paper, a fast and effective c...

Automatic delineation of skin lesion contours from dermoscopy images is a basic step in the process of diagnosis and treatment of skin lesions. However, it is a challenging task due to the high variation of appearances and sizes of skin lesions. In o...
BACKGROUND: Manual contouring remains the most laborious task in radiation therapy planning and is a major barrier to implementing routine Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Guided Adaptive Radiation Therapy (MR-ART). To address this, we propose a new ...

Using a single imaging modality to diagnose Alzheimer's disease (AD) or mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is a challenging task. FluoroDeoxyGlucose Positron Emission Tomography (FDG-PET) is an important and effective modality used for that purpose. In ...
Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer, which alone accounts for 30% all new cancer diagnoses for women, posing a threat to women's health. Segmentation of breast ultrasound images into functional tissues can aid tumor localization, brea...
