Estimation of the radiation dose in pregnancy: an automated patient-specific model using convolutional neural networks.

European radiology
OBJECTIVES: The conceptus dose during diagnostic imaging procedures for pregnant patients raises health concerns owing to the high radiosensitivity of the developing embryo/fetus. The aim of this work is to develop a methodology for automated constru...

Application of a deep learning algorithm for detection and visualization of hip fractures on plain pelvic radiographs.

European radiology
OBJECTIVE: To identify the feasibility of using a deep convolutional neural network (DCNN) for the detection and localization of hip fractures on plain frontal pelvic radiographs (PXRs). Hip fracture is a leading worldwide health problem for the elde...

Natural language processing to identify ureteric stones in radiology reports.

Journal of medical imaging and radiation oncology
INTRODUCTION: Natural language processing (NLP) is an emerging tool which has the ability to automate data extraction from large volumes of unstructured text. One of the main described uses of NLP in radiology is cohort building for epidemiological s...

Attention gated networks: Learning to leverage salient regions in medical images.

Medical image analysis
We propose a novel attention gate (AG) model for medical image analysis that automatically learns to focus on target structures of varying shapes and sizes. Models trained with AGs implicitly learn to suppress irrelevant regions in an input image whi...

Liver Extraction Using Residual Convolution Neural Networks From Low-Dose CT Images.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
An efficient and precise liver extraction from computed tomography (CT) images is a crucial step for computer-aided hepatic diseases diagnosis and treatment. Considering the possible risk to patient's health due to X-ray radiation of repetitive CT ex...

Automated Abdominal Segmentation of CT Scans for Body Composition Analysis Using Deep Learning.

Radiology
Purpose To develop and evaluate a fully automated algorithm for segmenting the abdomen from CT to quantify body composition. Materials and Methods For this retrospective study, a convolutional neural network based on the U-Net architecture was traine...

Organ Location Determination and Contour Sparse Representation for Multiorgan Segmentation.

IEEE journal of biomedical and health informatics
Organ segmentation on computed tomography (CT) images is of great importance in medical diagnoses and treatment. This paper proposes organ location determination and contour sparse representation methods (OLD-CSR) for multiorgan segmentation (liver, ...
