Lung ultrasound (LUS) is nowadays gaining growing attention from both the clinical and technical world. Of particular interest are several imaging-artifacts, e.g., A- and B- line artifacts. While A-lines are a visual pattern which essentially represe...
A novel method to detect and classify several classes of diseased and healthy lung tissue in CT (Computed Tomography), based on the fusion of Riesz and deep learning features, is presented. First, discriminative parametric lung tissue texture signatu...
PURPOSE: Chest X-ray is one of the most common examinations for diagnosing heart and lung diseases. Due to the existing of a large number of clinical cases, many automated diagnosis algorithms based on chest X-ray images have been proposed. To our kn...
UNLABELLED: Computational Intelligence Re-meets Medical Image Processing A Comparison of Some Nature-Inspired Optimization Metaheuristics Applied in Biomedical Image Registration BACKGROUND:  Diffuse lung diseases (DLDs) are a diverse group of pulmon...

Ankle fractures are common orthopedic injuries with favorable outcomes when managed with open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF). Several patient-related risk factors may contribute to poor short-term outcomes, and machine learning may be a valua...
Due to recent advances in artificial intelligence, there is renewed interest in automating interpretation of imaging tests. Chest radiographs are particularly interesting due to many factors: relatively inexpensive equipment, importance to public hea...
Machine learning approaches hold great potential for the automated detection of lung nodules on chest radiographs, but training algorithms requires very large amounts of manually annotated radiographs, which are difficult to obtain. The increasing av...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Wheezes in pulmonary sounds are anomalies which are often associated with obstructive type of lung diseases. The previous works on wheeze-type classification focused mainly on using fixed time-frequency/scale resolution base...
