OBJECTIVE: The aim of our study was to develop and validate a convolutional neural network (CNN) architecture to convert CT images reconstructed with one kernel to images with different reconstruction kernels without using a sinogram.
BACKGROUND: Histology-based methods are commonly used in osteoarthritis (OA) research because they provide detailed information about cartilage health at the cellular and tissue level. Computer-based cartilage scoring systems have previously been dev...
BACKGROUND: An accurate detection of tumor from the Magnetic Resonance Images (MRIs) is a critical and demanding task in medical image processing, due to the varying shape and structure of brain. So, different segmentation approaches such as manual, ...
BACKGROUND: We propose a classification method for Alzheimer's disease (AD) based on the texture of the hippocampus, which is the organ that is most affected by the onset of AD.
