Automatic segmentation of airway tree based on local intensity filter and machine learning technique in 3D chest CT volume.

International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery
PURPOSE: Airway segmentation plays an important role in analyzing chest computed tomography (CT) volumes for computerized lung cancer detection, emphysema diagnosis and pre- and intra-operative bronchoscope navigation. However, obtaining a complete 3...

Automatic 3D liver location and segmentation via convolutional neural network and graph cut.

International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery
PURPOSE: Segmentation of the liver from abdominal computed tomography (CT) images is an essential step in some computer-assisted clinical interventions, such as surgery planning for living donor liver transplant, radiotherapy and volume measurement. ...

Machine learning classification of mesial temporal sclerosis in epilepsy patients.

Epilepsy research
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Novel approaches applying machine-learning methods to neuroimaging data seek to develop individualized measures that will aid in the diagnosis and treatment of brain-based disorders such as temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE). Using ...

Multi-scale deep networks and regression forests for direct bi-ventricular volume estimation.

Medical image analysis
Direct estimation of cardiac ventricular volumes has become increasingly popular and important in cardiac function analysis due to its effectiveness and efficiency by avoiding an intermediate segmentation step. However, existing methods rely on eithe...

Supervised machine learning-based classification scheme to segment the brainstem on MRI in multicenter brain tumor treatment context.

International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery
PURPOSE: To constrain the risk of severe toxicity in radiotherapy and radiosurgery, precise volume delineation of organs at risk is required. This task is still manually performed, which is time-consuming and prone to observer variability. To address...

Effect of uterine size on fertility of lactating dairy cows.

Theriogenology
There are multiple reasons for reduced fertility in lactating dairy cows. We hypothesized that one cause of reduced fertility could be the overall size of the reproductive tract, particularly the uterus, given well-established uterine functions in ma...

Continence outcomes of robot-assisted radical prostatectomy in patients with adverse urinary continence risk factors.

BJU international
OBJECTIVE: To analyse the continence outcomes of robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) in suboptimal patients that have challenging continence recovery factors such as enlarged prostates, elderly patients, higher body mass index (BMI), salvage ...

Evaluation of artificial-intelligence-based liver segmentation and its application for longitudinal liver volume measurement.

Abdominal radiology (New York)
BACKGROUND: Accurate liver-volume measurements from CT scans are essential for treatment planning, particularly in liver resection cases, to avoid postoperative liver failure. However, manual segmentation is time-consuming and prone to variability. A...

Relationship between spleen volume and diameter for assessment of response to treatment on CT in patients with hematologic malignancies enrolled in clinical trials.

Abdominal radiology (New York)
PURPOSE: Investigate spleen diameter (d) and volume (v) relationship in patients with hematologic malignancies (HM) by determining volumetric thresholds that best correlate to established diameter thresholds for assessing response to treatment. Explo...
