DBT Masses Automatic Segmentation Using U-Net Neural Networks.

Computational and mathematical methods in medicine
To improve the automatic segmentation accuracy of breast masses in digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) images, we propose a DBT mass automatic segmentation algorithm by using a U-Net architecture. Firstly, to suppress the background tissue noise and e...

Deep learning-based virtual noncontrast CT for volumetric modulated arc therapy planning: Comparison with a dual-energy CT-based approach.

Medical physics
PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to develop a deep learning (DL) method for generating virtual noncontrast (VNC) computed tomography (CT) images from contrast-enhanced (CE) CT images (VNC ) and to evaluate its performance in dose calculations for h...

Artificial Intelligence for Mammography and Digital Breast Tomosynthesis: Current Concepts and Future Perspectives.

Radiology
Although computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) is widely used in mammography, conventional CAD programs that use prompts to indicate potential cancers on the mammograms have not led to an improvement in diagnostic accuracy. Because of the advances in machin...

Metal artifact reduction for the segmentation of the intra cochlear anatomy in CT images of the ear with 3D-conditional GANs.

Medical image analysis
Cochlear implants (CIs) are surgically implanted neural prosthetic devices that are used to treat severe-to-profound hearing loss. These devices are programmed post implantation and precise knowledge of the implant position with respect to the intra ...

A Hybridized ELM for Automatic Micro Calcification Detection in Mammogram Images Based on Multi-Scale Features.

Journal of medical systems
Detection of masses and micro calcifications are a stimulating task for radiologists in digital mammogram images. Radiologists using Computer Aided Detection (CAD) frameworks to find the breast lesion. Micro calcification may be the early sign of bre...

Convolutional Neural Networks for the Segmentation of Microcalcification in Mammography Imaging.

Journal of healthcare engineering
Cluster of microcalcifications can be an early sign of breast cancer. In this paper, we propose a novel approach based on convolutional neural networks for the detection and segmentation of microcalcification clusters. In this work, we used 283 mammo...

Contrast enhancement is a prognostic factor in IDH1/2 mutant, but not in wild-type WHO grade II/III glioma as confirmed by machine learning.

European journal of cancer (Oxford, England : 1990)
BACKGROUND: Mutation of the isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) gene and co-deletion on chromosome 1p/19q is becoming increasingly relevant for the evaluation of clinical outcome in glioma. Among the imaging parameters, contrast enhancement (CE) in WHO II...

Detection of Breast Cancer with Mammography: Effect of an Artificial Intelligence Support System.

Radiology
Purpose To compare breast cancer detection performance of radiologists reading mammographic examinations unaided versus supported by an artificial intelligence (AI) system. Materials and Methods An enriched retrospective, fully crossed, multireader, ...
