Semi-supervised learning based on consistency learning offers significant promise for enhancing medical image segmentation. Current approaches use copy-paste as an effective data perturbation technique to facilitate weak-to-strong consistency learnin...
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the use of deep learning (DL) T2-weighted turbo spin echo (TSE) imaging sequence with deep learning acceleration (T2DL) in prostate MRI regarding the necessity of hyoscine butylbromide (HBB) administration for high image qua...
In prostate cancer (PCa), risk calculators have been proposed, relying on clinical parameters and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) enable early prediction of clinically significant cancer (CsPCa). The prostate imaging-reporting and data system (PI-RA...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: To assess whether conventional brightness-mode (B-mode) transrectal ultrasound images of the prostate reveal clinically significant cancers with the help of artificial intelligence methods.
PURPOSE: Conventional prostate magnetic resonance imaging has limited accuracy for clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa). We performed diffusion basis spectrum imaging (DBSI) before biopsy and applied artificial intelligence models to these ...
OBJECTIVE: To explore new metrics for assessing radical prostatectomy difficulty through a two-stage deep learning method from preoperative magnetic resonance imaging.
