3-D Convolutional Encoder-Decoder Network for Low-Dose CT via Transfer Learning From a 2-D Trained Network.

IEEE transactions on medical imaging
Low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) has attracted major attention in the medical imaging field, since CT-associated X-ray radiation carries health risks for patients. The reduction of the CT radiation dose, however, compromises the signal-to-noise ra...

Penalized PET Reconstruction Using Deep Learning Prior and Local Linear Fitting.

IEEE transactions on medical imaging
Motivated by the great potential of deep learning in medical imaging, we propose an iterative positron emission tomography reconstruction framework using a deep learning-based prior. We utilized the denoising convolutional neural network (DnCNN) meth...

Intelligent Parameter Tuning in Optimization-Based Iterative CT Reconstruction via Deep Reinforcement Learning.

IEEE transactions on medical imaging
A number of image-processing problems can be formulated as optimization problems. The objective function typically contains several terms specifically designed for different purposes. Parameters in front of these terms are used to control the relativ...

Model-Based Learning for Accelerated, Limited-View 3-D Photoacoustic Tomography.

IEEE transactions on medical imaging
Recent advances in deep learning for tomographic reconstructions have shown great potential to create accurate and high quality images with a considerable speed up. In this paper, we present a deep neural network that is specifically designed to prov...

Deep Convolutional Framelet Denosing for Low-Dose CT via Wavelet Residual Network.

IEEE transactions on medical imaging
Model-based iterative reconstruction algorithms for low-dose X-ray computed tomography (CT) are computationally expensive. To address this problem, we recently proposed a deep convolutional neural network (CNN) for low-dose X-ray CT and won the secon...

Learned Primal-Dual Reconstruction.

IEEE transactions on medical imaging
We propose the Learned Primal-Dual algorithm for tomographic reconstruction. The algorithm accounts for a (possibly non-linear) forward operator in a deep neural network by unrolling a proximal primal-dual optimization method, but where the proximal ...

Artificial Neural Network Enhanced Bayesian PET Image Reconstruction.

IEEE transactions on medical imaging
In positron emission tomography (PET) image reconstruction, the Bayesian framework with various regularization terms has been implemented to constrain the radio tracer distribution. Varying the regularizing weight of a maximum a posteriori (MAP) algo...

Low dose CT reconstruction via L1 norm dictionary learning using alternating minimization algorithm and balancing principle.

Journal of X-ray science and technology
Excessive radiation exposure in computed tomography (CT) scans increases the chance of developing cancer and has become a major clinical concern. Recently, statistical iterative reconstruction (SIR) with l0-norm dictionary learning regularization has...

Projection decomposition algorithm for dual-energy computed tomography via deep neural network.

Journal of X-ray science and technology
BACKGROUND: Dual-energy computed tomography (DECT) has been widely used to improve identification of substances from different spectral information. Decomposition of the mixed test samples into two materials relies on a well-calibrated material decom...

Hybrid piezoresistive-optical tactile sensor for simultaneous measurement of tissue stiffness and detection of tissue discontinuity in robot-assisted minimally invasive surgery.

Journal of biomedical optics
To compensate for the lack of touch during minimally invasive and robotic surgeries, tactile sensors are integrated with surgical instruments. Surgical tools with tactile sensors have been used mainly for distinguishing among different tissues and de...
