Neovascularization (NV) is a definitive indicator for the onset of Proliferative Diabetic Retinopathy (PDR). The new vessels are fragile and prone to bleed, leading to high risk of sudden vision loss. Automatic detection of NV is an important task in...
Structural abnormalities in schizophrenia (SZ) patients have been well documented with structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data using voxel-based morphometry (VBM) and region of interest (ROI) analyses. However, these analyses can only detect...

BACKGROUND: Decreasing the number of projections is an effective way to reduce the radiation dose exposed to patients in medical computed tomography (CT) imaging. However, incomplete projection data for CT reconstruction will result in artifacts and ...
BACKGROUND: Patients with the postural instability and gait difficulty subtype (PIGD) of Parkinson's disease (PD) are a refractory challenge in clinical practice. Despite previous attempts that have been made at studying subtype-specific brain altera...
