PURPOSE: Attenuation correction and scatter compensation (AC/SC) are two main steps toward quantitative PET imaging, which remain challenging in PET-only and PET/MRI systems. These can be effectively tackled via deep learning (DL) methods. However, t...
PURPOSE: To compare performance of 1-mm deep learning reconstruction (DLR) with 3-mm routine MRI imaging for the delineation of pituitary axis and identification of cavernous sinus invasion for pituitary macroadenoma.
Accurate-staging is important when planning personalized radiotherapy. However,-staging via manual slice-by-slice inspection is time-consuming while tumor sizes and shapes are heterogeneous, and junior physicians find such inspection challenging. Wit...
Increasing the accuracy and reproducibility of subcortical brain segmentation is advantageous in various related clinical applications. In this study, we derived a segmentation method based on a convolutional neural network (i.e., U-Net) and a large-...

Multi-contrast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can provide richer diagnosis information. The data acquisition time, however, is increased than single-contrast imaging. To reduce this time, k-space undersampling is an effective way but a smart recons...
PURPOSE: Cardiac ventricle segmentation from cine magnetic resonance imaging (CMRI) is a recognized modality for the noninvasive assessment of cardiovascular pathologies. Deep learning based algorithms achieved state-of-the-art result performance fro...
BACKGROUND: Brain cancer is a destructive and life-threatening disease that imposes immense negative effects on patients' lives. Therefore, the detection of brain tumors at an early stage improves the impact of treatments and increases the patients s...

Localization of lumbar discs in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a challenging task, due to a vast range of shape, size, number, and appearance of discs and vertebrae. Based on a review of the cutting-edge methods, the majority of applied techniqu...
OBJECTIVES: No method is available to determine the non-perfused volume (NPV) repeatedly during magnetic resonance-guided high-intensity focused ultrasound (MR-HIFU) ablations of uterine fibroids, as repeated acquisition of contrast-enhanced T1-weigh...
