Artificial Intelligence Iterative Reconstruction for Dose Reduction in Pediatric Chest CT: A Clinical Assessment via Below 3 Years Patients With Congenital Heart Disease.

Journal of thoracic imaging
PURPOSE: To assess the performance of a newly introduced deep learning-based reconstruction algorithm, namely the artificial intelligence iterative reconstruction (AIIR), in reducing the dose of pediatric chest CT by using the image data of below 3-y...

Inconsistency of AI in intracranial aneurysm detection with varying dose and image reconstruction.

Scientific reports
Scanner-related changes in data quality are common in medical imaging, yet monitoring their impact on diagnostic AI performance remains challenging. In this study, we performed standardized consistency testing of an FDA-cleared and CE-marked AI for t...

Deep learning-based applicator selection between Syed and T&O in high-dose-rate brachytherapy for locally advanced cervical cancer: a retrospective study.

Physics in medicine and biology
High-dose-rate (HDR) brachytherapy is integral to the standard-of-care for locally advanced cervical cancer (LACC). Currently, selection of brachytherapy applicators relies on physician's clinical experience, which can lead to variability in treatmen...

Improving lower-extremity artery depiction and diagnostic confidence using dual-energy technique and popliteal artery monitoring in dual-low dose CT angiography.

Scientific reports
To assess the utility of dual-energy CT scanning (DECTs) with popliteal artery (PA) monitoring in dual low-dose (radiation and contrast) lower-extremity CT angiography (LE-CTA). 135 patients undergoing LE-CTA were prospectively included and divided i...

The impact of a simple positioning aid device on the diagnostic performance of thyroid cancer in CT scans: a randomized controlled trial.

Cancer imaging : the official publication of the International Cancer Imaging Society
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effectiveness of a simple positioning aid device in neck CT scans for the diagnosis of thyroid cancer, with a focus on its influence on image quality and diagnostic accuracy.

Unsupervised Domain Adaptation for Low-Dose CT Reconstruction via Bayesian Uncertainty Alignment.

IEEE transactions on neural networks and learning systems
Low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) image reconstruction techniques can reduce patient radiation exposure while maintaining acceptable imaging quality. Deep learning (DL) is widely used in this problem, but the performance of testing data (also known...

Application of deep learning reconstruction combined with time-resolved post-processing method to improve image quality in CTA derived from low-dose cerebral CT perfusion data.

BMC medical imaging
BACKGROUND: To assess the effect of the combination of deep learning reconstruction (DLR) and time-resolved maximum intensity projection (tMIP) or time-resolved average (tAve) post-processing method on image quality of CTA derived from low-dose cereb...

Reduction of radiation exposure in chest radiography using deep learning-based noise reduction processing: A phantom and retrospective clinical study.

Radiography (London, England : 1995)
INTRODUCTION: Intelligent noise reduction (INR), a deep learning-based noise reduction developed by Canon, is used in planar radiography to improve image quality and reduce patient exposure dose. This study aimed to evaluate the reduction of patient ...

Feasibility of U-Net model for cerebral arteries segmentation with low-dose computed tomography angiographic images with pre-processing methods.

Scientific reports
Subtraction computed tomography angiography (sCTA) can effectively separate enhanced cerebral arteries from similar signal intensity and proximity (i.e., vertebrae and skull). However, sCTA is not considered mainstream because of the high radiation d...
