Deep learning for World Health Organization grades of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors on contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance images: a preliminary study.

International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery
PURPOSE: The World Health Organization (WHO) grading system of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor (PNET) plays an important role in the clinical decision. The rarity of PNET often negatively affects the radiological application of deep learning algorith...

Preoperative Prediction of Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Neoplasms Grading Based on Enhanced Computed Tomography Imaging: Validation of Deep Learning with a Convolutional Neural Network.

Neuroendocrinology
INTRODUCTION: The pathological grading of pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (pNENs) is an independent predictor of survival and indicator for treatment. Deep learning (DL) with a convolutional neural network (CNN) may improve the preoperative predi...

Pixel-to-Pixel Learning With Weak Supervision for Single-Stage Nucleus Recognition in Ki67 Images.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
OBJECTIVE: Nucleus recognition is a critical yet challenging step in histopathology image analysis, for example, in Ki67 immunohistochemistry stained images. Although many automated methods have been proposed, most use a multi-stage processing pipeli...

Identifying tumor in pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms from Ki67 images using transfer learning.

PloS one
The World Health Organization (WHO) has clear guidelines regarding the use of Ki67 index in defining the proliferative rate and assigning grade for pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor (NET). WHO mandates the quantification of Ki67 index by counting at le...

Efficient and robust cell detection: A structured regression approach.

Medical image analysis
Efficient and robust cell detection serves as a critical prerequisite for many subsequent biomedical image analysis methods and computer-aided diagnosis (CAD). It remains a challenging task due to touching cells, inhomogeneous background noise, and l...

Impact of chromogranin A, differentiation, and mitoses in nonfunctional pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors ≤ 2 cm.

The Journal of surgical research
BACKGROUND: Small pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNETs) are a unique subset of pancreatic neoplasms. Chromogranin A (CgA) levels, mitotic rate, and histologic differentiation are often used to characterize PNET behavior. This study evaluates the i...

Deep Voting: A Robust Approach Toward Nucleus Localization in Microscopy Images.

Medical image computing and computer-assisted intervention : MICCAI ... International Conference on Medical Image Computing and Computer-Assisted Intervention
Robust and accurate nuclei localization in microscopy image can provide crucial clues for accurate computer-aid diagnosis. In this paper, we propose a convolutional neural network (CNN) based hough voting method to localize nucleus centroids with hea...

Fast Cell Segmentation Using Scalable Sparse Manifold Learning and Affine Transform-approximated Active Contour.

Medical image computing and computer-assisted intervention : MICCAI ... International Conference on Medical Image Computing and Computer-Assisted Intervention
Efficient and effective cell segmentation of neuroendocrine tumor (NET) in whole slide scanned images is a difficult task due to a large number of cells. The weak or misleading cell boundaries also present significant challenges. In this paper, we pr...

Uncertainty quantification for deep learning-based metastatic lesion segmentation on whole body PET/CT.

Physics in medicine and biology
Deep learning models are increasingly being implemented for automated medical image analysis to inform patient care. Most models, however, lack uncertainty information, without which the reliability of model outputs cannot be ensured. Several uncerta...

Selection of neuroendocrine markers in diagnostic workup of neuroendocrine neoplasms: The real-world data and machine learning model algorithms.

Cancer cytopathology
BACKGROUND: Accurate diagnosis of neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) is challenging, especially in poorly differentiated neuroendocrine carcinomas (NECs). This study was aimed to search the best or best combination of neuroendocrine markers in the diagn...
