PURPOSE: Severity of white matter lesion (WML) is typically evaluated on magnetic resonance images (MRI), yet the more accessible, faster, and less expensive method is computed tomography (CT). Our objective was to study whether WML can be automatica...
Accurate segmentation of brain tumors from magnetic resonance (MR) images play a pivot role in assisting diagnoses, treatments and postoperative evaluations. However, due to its structural complexities, e.g., fuzzy tumor boundaries with irregular sha...
Segmentation of normal organs is a critical and time-consuming process in radiotherapy. Auto-segmentation of abdominal organs has been made possible by the advent of the convolutional neural network. We utilized the U-Net, a 3D-patch-based convolutio...
Accurate segmentation of myocardial in cardiac MRI (magnetic resonance image) is key to effective rapid diagnosis and quantitative pathology analysis. However, a low-quality CMR (cardiac magnetic resonance) image with a large amount of noise makes it...
PURPOSE: Needle-based procedures for diagnosing and treating prostate cancer, such as biopsy and brachytherapy, have incorporated three-dimensional (3D) transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) imaging to improve needle guidance. Using these images effectively ...

Hemiplegia is a type of paralysis that affects one side of the body due to stroke, characterizing severe weakness or rigid movement. Many people of different age groups are affected by this condition which cannot be completely cured but can be minimi...
Accurate localisation of mandibular canals in lower jaws is important in dental implantology, in which the implant position and dimensions are currently determined manually from 3D CT images by medical experts to avoid damaging the mandibular nerve i...
The practicability of deep learning techniques has been demonstrated by their successful implementation in varied fields, including diagnostic imaging for clinicians. In accordance with the increasing demands in the healthcare industry, techniques fo...
