Liver cancer is a leading cause of cancer deaths worldwide due to its high morbidity and mortality. Histopathological image analysis (HIA) is a crucial step in the early diagnosis of liver cancer and is routinely performed manually. However, this pro...
BACKGROUND: Liver alignment between series/exams is challenged by dynamic morphology or variability in patient positioning or motion. Image registration can improve image interpretation and lesion co-localization. We assessed the performance of a con...
The finite element method (FEM) is among the most commonly used numerical methods for solving engineering problems. Due to its computational cost, various ideas have been introduced to reduce computation times, such as domain decomposition, parallel ...

Microwave ablation (MWA) for cancer treatment is frequently monitored by ultrasound (US) B-mode imaging in the clinic, which often fails due to the low intrinsic contrast between the thermal lesion and normal tissue. Deep learning, especially convolu...
PURPOSE: To enhance clinician's decision-making by diagnosing hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in cirrhotic patients with indeterminate liver nodules using quantitative imaging features extracted from triphasic CT scans.
