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...

Automated opportunistic screening for osteoporosis using deep learning-based automatic segmentation and radiomics on proximal femur images from low-dose abdominal CT.

BMC musculoskeletal disorders
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: To establish an automated osteoporosis detection model based on low-dose abdominal CT (LDCT). This model combined a deep learning-based automatic segmentation of the proximal femur with a radiomics-based bone status classifi...

An artificial intelligence model for predicting an appropriate mAs with target exposure indicator for chest digital radiography.

Scientific reports
In digital radiography, image quality is synergistically affected by anatomy-specific examinations, exposure factors, body parameters, detector types, and vendors/systems. However, estimating appropriate exposure factors before radiography with optim...

Phantom-based evaluation of image quality in Transformer-enhanced 2048-matrix CT imaging at low and ultralow doses.

Japanese journal of radiology
PURPOSE: To compare the quality of standard 512-matrix, standard 1024-matrix, and Swin2SR-based 2048-matrix phantom images under different scanning protocols.

An isodose-constrained automatic treatment planning strategy using a multicriteria predicted dose rating.

Medical physics
BACKGROUND: Previous knowledge-based planning studies have demonstrated the feasibility of predicting three-dimensional photon dose distributions and subsequently generating treatment plans. The steepness of dose fall-off represents a critical metric...

Improved unsupervised 3D lung lesion detection and localization by fusing global and local features: Validation in 3D low-dose computed tomography.

Medical image analysis
Unsupervised anomaly detection (UAD) is crucial in low-dose computed tomography (LDCT). Recent AI technologies, leveraging global features, have enabled effective UAD with minimal training data of normal patients. However, this approach, devoid of ut...

Uncertainty quantification for CT dosimetry based on 10 281 subjects using automatic image segmentation and fast Monte Carlo calculations.

Medical physics
BACKGROUND: Computed tomography (CT) scans are a major source of medical radiation exposure worldwide. In countries like China, the frequency of CT scans has grown rapidly, thus making available a large volume of organ dose information. With modern c...
