PURPOSE: Among the different available methods for synthetic CT generation from MR images for the task of MR-guided radiation planning, the deep learning algorithms have and do outperform their conventional counterparts. In this study, we investigate...
Epiretinal membrane (ERM) is a common ophthalmological disorder of high prevalence. Its symptoms include metamorphopsia, blurred vision, and decreased visual acuity. Early diagnosis and timely treatment of ERM is crucial to preventing vision loss. Al...
Exoskeletons can enhance human mobility, but we still know little about why they are effective. For example, we do not know the relative importance of training, how much is required, or what type is most effective; how people adapt with the device; o...
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: Prostate MRI improves detection of clinically significant prostate cancer; however, its diagnostic performance has wide variation. Artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to assist radiologists in the detection and cl...
Background Previous studies suggest that use of artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms as diagnostic aids may improve the quality of skeletal age assessment, though these studies lack evidence from clinical practice. Purpose To compare the accuracy ...
The tumor-stroma ratio (TSR) determined by pathologists is subject to intra- and inter-observer variability. We aimed to develop a computational quantification method of TSR using deep learning-based virtual cytokeratin staining algorithms. Patients ...
Computations of placebo effects are essential in randomized controlled trials (RCTs) for separating the specific effects of treatments from unspecific effects associated with the therapeutic intervention. Thus, the identification of placebo responder...
BACKGROUND: To estimate median liver iron concentration (LIC) calculated from magnetic resonance imaging, excluded vessels of the liver parenchyma region were defined manually. Previous works proposed the automated method for excluding vessels from t...
Volume delineation quality assurance (QA) is particularly important in clinical trial settings where consistent protocol implementation is required, as outcomes will affect future as well current patients. Currently, where feasible, this is conducted...
