TUnet-LBF: Retinal fundus image fine segmentation model based on transformer Unet network and LBF.

Computers in biology and medicine
Segmentation of retinal fundus images is a crucial part of medical diagnosis. Automatic extraction of blood vessels in low-quality retinal images remains a challenging problem. In this paper, we propose a novel two-stage model combining Transformer U...

Rema-Net: An efficient multi-attention convolutional neural network for rapid skin lesion segmentation.

Computers in biology and medicine
For clinical treatment, the accurate segmentation of lesions from dermoscopic images is extremely valuable. Convolutional neural networks (such as U-Net and its numerous variants) have become the main methods for skin lesion segmentation in recent ye...

Single-cell segmentation in bacterial biofilms with an optimized deep learning method enables tracking of cell lineages and measurements of growth rates.

Molecular microbiology
Bacteria often grow into matrix-encased three-dimensional (3D) biofilm communities, which can be imaged at cellular resolution using confocal microscopy. From these 3D images, measurements of single-cell properties with high spatiotemporal resolution...

Image preprocessing with contrast-limited adaptive histogram equalization improves the segmentation performance of deep learning for the articular disk of the temporomandibular joint on magnetic resonance images.

Oral surgery, oral medicine, oral pathology and oral radiology
OBJECTIVES: The objective was to evaluate the robustness of deep learning (DL)-based encoder-decoder convolutional neural networks (ED-CNNs) for segmenting temporomandibular joint (TMJ) articular disks using data sets acquired from 2 different 3.0-T ...

Segmentation of thyroid glands and nodules in ultrasound images using the improved U-Net architecture.

BMC medical imaging
BACKGROUND: Identifying thyroid nodules' boundaries is crucial for making an accurate clinical assessment. However, manual segmentation is time-consuming. This paper utilized U-Net and its improved methods to automatically segment thyroid nodules and...

Morphological feature recognition of different differentiation stages of induced ADSCs based on deep learning.

Computers in biology and medicine
In order to accurately identify the morphological features of different differentiation stages of induced Adipose Derived Stem Cells (ADSCs) and judge the differentiation types of induced ADSCs, a morphological feature recognition method of different...

Deep learning synthesis of cone-beam computed tomography from zero echo time magnetic resonance imaging.

Scientific reports
Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) produces high-resolution of hard tissue even in small voxel size, but the process is associated with radiation exposure and poor soft tissue imaging. Thus, we synthesized a CBCT image from the magnetic resonance i...

Inter-fraction deformable image registration using unsupervised deep learning for CBCT-guided abdominal radiotherapy.

Physics in medicine and biology
. CBCTs in image-guided radiotherapy provide crucial anatomy information for patient setup and plan evaluation. Longitudinal CBCT image registration could quantify the inter-fractional anatomic changes, e.g. tumor shrinkage, and daily OAR variation t...

Explainability and causability in digital pathology.

The journal of pathology. Clinical research
The current move towards digital pathology enables pathologists to use artificial intelligence (AI)-based computer programmes for the advanced analysis of whole slide images. However, currently, the best-performing AI algorithms for image analysis ar...

Deep-learning-based denoising of X-ray differential phase and dark-field images.

European journal of radiology
PURPOSE: Statistical photon noise has always been a common problem in X-ray multi-contrast imaging and significantly influenced the quality of retrieved differential phase and dark-field images. We intend to develop a deep learning-based denoising al...
