BACKGROUND: Late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging is the gold standard for noninvasive myocardial tissue characterization but requires intravenous contrast agent administration. It is highly desired to deve...
Medical image segmentation has seen positive developments in recent years but remains challenging with many practical obstacles to overcome. The applications of this task are wide-ranging in many fields of medicine, and used in several imaging modali...
This study set out to investigate various deep learning frameworks for PET attenuation correction in the sinogram domain. Different models for both time-of-flight (TOF) and non-TOF PET emission data were implemented, including direct estimation of th...
PURPOSE: Deformable image registration is a fundamental task in medical imaging. Due to the large computational complexity of deformable registration of volumetric images, conventional iterative methods usually face the tradeoff between the registrat...

PURPOSE: We present the validation of PROST, a robotic device for prostate biopsy. PROST is designed to minimize human error by introducing some autonomy in the execution of the key steps of the procedure, i.e., target selection, image fusion and nee...
The purpose of this study was to propose a machine learning model and assess its ability to classify TMJ pathologies on magnetic resonance (MR) images. This retrospective cohort study included 214 TMJs from 107 patients with TMJ signs and symptoms. A...

PURPOSE: We developed a software program that automatically extracts a three-dimensional (3D) lumbar nerve root image from magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) lumbar nerve volume data using artificial intelligence. The aim of this study is to evaluate t...
Human brain atlases provide spatial reference systems for data characterizing brain organization at different levels, coming from different brains. Cytoarchitecture is a basic principle of the microstructural organization of the brain, as regional di...
