BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to evaluate the hypothesis that a deep convolutional neural network (DCNN) model could facilitate automated Brasfield scoring of chest radiographs (CXRs) for patients with cystic fibrosis (CF), performing similar...
PURPOSE: Chest X-ray is one of the most common examinations for diagnosing heart and lung diseases. Due to the existing of a large number of clinical cases, many automated diagnosis algorithms based on chest X-ray images have been proposed. To our kn...
Computed tomography (CT) is widely used in medical diagnosis and non-destructive detection. Image reconstruction in CT aims to accurately recover pixel values from measured line integrals, i.e., the summed pixel values along straight lines. Provided ...
PURPOSE: Lung nodules that are missed by radiologists as well as by computer-aided detection (CAD) systems mostly overlap with ribs and clavicles. Removing the bony structures would result in better visualization of undetectable lesions. Our purpose ...
OBJECTIVES: This paper reports the development, validation, and public availability of a new neural network-based system which attempts to identify the manufacturer and even the model group of a pacemaker or defibrillator from a chest radiograph.
