Cancer taxonomy: pathology beyond pathology.

European journal of cancer (Oxford, England : 1990)
The way we categorise and classify cancer types dictates not only the way we diagnose and treat patients but also many of our decisions on biomarker and drug development. In addition, cancer taxonomy proves the ground truth for future discoveries in ...

Deep learning for automatic Gleason pattern classification for grade group determination of prostate biopsies.

Virchows Archiv : an international journal of pathology
Histopathologic grading of prostate cancer using Gleason patterns (GPs) is subject to a large inter-observer variability, which may result in suboptimal treatment of patients. With the introduction of digitization and whole-slide images of prostate b...

A Deep Learning Approach for Assessment of Regional Wall Motion Abnormality From Echocardiographic Images.

JACC. Cardiovascular imaging
OBJECTIVES: This study investigated whether a deep convolutional neural network (DCNN) could provide improved detection of regional wall motion abnormalities (RWMAs) and differentiate among groups of coronary infarction territories from conventional ...

A deep learning- and partial least square regression-based model observer for a low-contrast lesion detection task in CT.

Medical physics
PURPOSE: This work aims to develop a new framework of image quality assessment using deep learning-based model observer (DL-MO) and to validate it in a low-contrast lesion detection task that involves CT images with patient anatomical background.

Automatic classification of ultrasound breast lesions using a deep convolutional neural network mimicking human decision-making.

European radiology
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate a deep convolutional neural network (dCNN) for detection, highlighting, and classification of ultrasound (US) breast lesions mimicking human decision-making according to the Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS).

A deep neural network improves endoscopic detection of early gastric cancer without blind spots.

Endoscopy
BACKGROUND: Gastric cancer is the third most lethal malignancy worldwide. A novel deep convolution neural network (DCNN) to perform visual tasks has been recently developed. The aim of this study was to build a system using the DCNN to detect early g...

Automated pectoral muscle identification on MLO-view mammograms: Comparison of deep neural network to conventional computer vision.

Medical physics
OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to develop a fully automated deep learning approach for identification of the pectoral muscle on mediolateral oblique (MLO) view mammograms and evaluate its performance in comparison to our previously developed t...

Multi-organ segmentation of the head and neck area: an efficient hierarchical neural networks approach.

International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery
PURPOSE: In radiation therapy, a key step for a successful cancer treatment is image-based treatment planning. One objective of the planning phase is the fast and accurate segmentation of organs at risk and target structures from medical images. Howe...

Qualitative versus quantitative lumbar spinal stenosis grading by machine learning supported texture analysis-Experience from the LSOS study cohort.

European journal of radiology
PURPOSE: To investigate and compare the reproducibility and accuracy of qualitative ratings and quantitative texture analysis (TA) in detection and grading of lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) in magnetic resonance imaging (MR) scans of the lumbar spine.

Deeply supervised 3D fully convolutional networks with group dilated convolution for automatic MRI prostate segmentation.

Medical physics
PURPOSE: Reliable automated segmentation of the prostate is indispensable for image-guided prostate interventions. However, the segmentation task is challenging due to inhomogeneous intensity distributions, variation in prostate anatomy, among other ...
