OBJECTIVES: To realize the automated bone age assessment by applying deep learning to digital radiography (DR) image recognition of left wrist joint in Uyghur teenagers, and explore its practical application value in forensic medicine bone age assess...
Methods for aligning 3D fetal neurosonography images must be robust to (i) intensity variations, (ii) anatomical and age-specific differences within the fetal population, and (iii) the variations in fetal position. To this end, we propose a multi-tas...

In recent years, artificial vision research has moved from focusing on the use of only intensity images to include using depth images, or RGB-D combinations due to the recent development of low-cost depth cameras. However, depth images require a lot ...
BACKGROUND: Clustering approaches used in functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) research use brain activity to divide the brain into various parcels with some degree of homogeneous characteristics, but choosing the appropriate clustering algor...

We propose an adaptation of a convolutional neural network (CNN) scheme proposed for segmenting brain lesions with considerable mass-effect, to segment white matter hyperintensities (WMH) characteristic of brains with none or mild vascular pathology ...
Obesity is increasing worldwide and can cause many chronic conditions such as type-2 diabetes, heart disease, sleep apnea, and some cancers. Monitoring dietary intake through food logging is a key method to maintain a healthy lifestyle to prevent and...
Blood leucocytes segmentation in medical images is viewed as difficult process due to the variability of blood cells concerning their shape and size and the difficulty towards determining location of Blood Leucocytes. Physical analysis of blood tests...
