Computer-aided diagnosis system for lung nodules based on computed tomography using shape analysis, a genetic algorithm, and SVM.

Medical & biological engineering & computing
Lung cancer is the major cause of death among patients with cancer worldwide. This work is intended to develop a methodology for the diagnosis of lung nodules using images from the Image Database Consortium and Image Database Resource Initiative (LID...

Multilevel Contextual 3-D CNNs for False Positive Reduction in Pulmonary Nodule Detection.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
OBJECTIVE: False positive reduction is one of the most crucial components in an automated pulmonary nodule detection system, which plays an important role in lung cancer diagnosis and early treatment. The objective of this paper is to effectively add...

Efficient Descriptor-Based Segmentation of Parotid Glands With Nonlocal Means.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
OBJECTIVE: We introduce descriptor-based segmentation that extends existing patch-based methods by combining intensities, features, and location information. Since it is unclear which image features are best suited for patch selection, we perform a b...

Computer-assisted framework for machine-learning-based delineation of GTV regions on datasets of planning CT and PET/CT images.

Journal of radiation research
We have proposed a computer-assisted framework for machine-learning-based delineation of gross tumor volumes (GTVs) following an optimum contour selection (OCS) method. The key idea of the proposed framework was to feed image features around GTV cont...

Automatic Liver Segmentation from CT Images Using Single-Block Linear Detection.

BioMed research international
Automatic liver segmentation not only plays an important role in the analysis of liver disease, but also reduces the cost and humanity's impact in segmentation. In addition, liver segmentation is a very challenging task due to countless anatomical va...

Large scale deep learning for computer aided detection of mammographic lesions.

Medical image analysis
Recent advances in machine learning yielded new techniques to train deep neural networks, which resulted in highly successful applications in many pattern recognition tasks such as object detection and speech recognition. In this paper we provide a h...

A neural network-based method for spectral distortion correction in photon counting x-ray CT.

Physics in medicine and biology
Spectral CT using a photon counting x-ray detector (PCXD) shows great potential for measuring material composition based on energy dependent x-ray attenuation. Spectral CT is especially suited for imaging with K-edge contrast agents to address the ot...

Adapting content-based image retrieval techniques for the semantic annotation of medical images.

Computerized medical imaging and graphics : the official journal of the Computerized Medical Imaging Society
The automatic annotation of medical images is a prerequisite for building comprehensive semantic archives that can be used to enhance evidence-based diagnosis, physician education, and biomedical research. Annotation also has important applications i...
