Sulci are a fundamental part of brain morphology, closely linked to brain function, cognition, and behavior. Tertiary sulci, characterized as the shallowest and smallest subtype, pose a challenging task for detection. The diagonal sulcus (ds), locate...
Deep learning techniques are increasingly being used to classify medical imaging data with high accuracy. Despite this, due to often limited training data, these models can lack sufficient generalizability to predict unseen test data, produced in dif...

A brain tumor (BT) is considered one of the most crucial and deadly diseases in the world, as it affects the central nervous system and its main functions. Headaches, nausea, and balance problems are caused by tumors pressing on nearby brain tissue a...
Multimodal data, while being information-rich, contains complementary as well as redundant information. Depending on the target problem some modalities are more informative and thus relevant for decision-making. Identifying the optimal subset of moda...

PURPOSE: We investigate the feasibility of using a biophysically guided approach for delineating the Clinical Target Volume (CTV) in Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM) by evaluating its impact on the treatment outcomes, specifically Overall Survival (OS) ...
Megavoltage computed tomography (MVCT) plays a crucial role in patient positioning and dose reconstruction during tomotherapy. However, due to the limited scan field of view (sFOV), the entire cross-section of certain patients may not be fully covere...
Variations in hue and contrast are common in H&E-stained pathology images due to differences in slide preparation across various institutions. Such stain variations, while not affecting pathologists much in diagnosing the biopsy, pose significant cha...
Modeling Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) images is crucial for numerous image processing applications and aids ophthalmologists in the early detection of macular abnormalities. Sparse representation-based models, particularly dictionary learning (...
BACKGROUND: Cervical canal stenosis is one of the important pathogenic factors of cervical spondylosis. The accuracy of the Pavlov ratio measurement is crucial for the diagnosis and treatment of cervical spinal stenosis. Manual measurement is influen...
BACKGROUND: Measurement noise often leads to inaccurate shear wave phase velocity estimation in ultrasound shear wave elastography. Filtering techniques are commonly used for denoising the shear wavefields. However, these filters are often not suffic...
