Tumor budding is a promising and cost-effective biomarker with strong prognostic value in colorectal cancer. However, challenges related to interobserver variability persist. Such variability may be reduced by immunohistochemistry and computer-aided ...
Uncertainty of labels in clinical data resulting from intra-observer variability can have direct impact on the reliability of assessments made by deep neural networks. In this paper, we propose a method for modelling such uncertainty in the context o...

BACKGROUND: Deep learning-based auto-segmented contours (DC) aim to alleviate labour intensive contouring of organs at risk (OAR) and clinical target volumes (CTV). Most previous DC validation studies have a limited number of expert observers for com...
BACKGROUND: Accurate and standardized descriptions of organs at risk (OARs) are essential in radiation therapy for treatment planning and evaluation. Traditionally, physicians have contoured patient images manually, which, is time-consuming and subje...
In this study, a deep learning-based method for developing an automated diagnostic support system that detects periodontal bone loss in the panoramic dental radiographs is proposed. The presented method called DeNTNet not only detects lesions but als...

INTRODUCTION: Probe-based confocal laser endomicroscopy (pCLE) is a promising modality for classifying polyp histology in vivo, but decision making in real-time is hampered by high-magnification targeting and by the learning curve for image interpret...

INTRODUCTION: Adequate head and neck (HN) organ-at-risk (OAR) delineation is crucial for HN radiotherapy and for investigating the relationships between radiation dose to OARs and radiation-induced side effects. The automatic contouring algorithms th...
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Diagnosing esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) depends on individual physician expertise and may be subject to interobserver variability. Therefore, we developed a computerized image-analysis system to detect and differentia...
OBJECTIVES: This study developed a neural network to perform automated pressure waveform analysis and allow real-time accurate identification of damping.
