Chest X-rays are the most economically viable diagnostic imaging test for active pulmonary tuberculosis screening despite the high sensitivity and low specificity when interpreted by clinicians or radiologists. Computer aided detection (CAD) algorith...
Accurate body weights are not necessarily available in routine clinical practice. This study aimed to investigate whether body weight can be predicted from chest radiographs using deep learning. Deep-learning models with a convolutional neural networ...
BACKGROUND: Medical images have already become an essential tool for the diagnosis of many diseases. Thus a large number of medical images are being generated due to the daily routine inspection. An efficient image-based disease retrieval system will...
BACKGROUND: Interdisciplinary case discussions, especially tumor conferences, represent a large part of the clinical radiologist's daily work. Radiology plays a key role in tumor conferences, since imaging findings have a direct influence on therapy ...
Medical ultrasound imaging relies heavily on high-quality signal processing to provide reliable and interpretable image reconstructions. Conventionally, reconstruction algorithms have been derived from physical principles. These algorithms rely on as...

The complex shape of the foot, consisting of 26 bones, variable ligaments, tendons, and muscles leads to misdiagnosis of foot fractures. Despite the introduction of artificial intelligence (AI) to diagnose fractures, the accuracy of foot fracture dia...
BACKGROUND: Traumatic musculoskeletal injuries are a common presentation to emergency care, the first-line investigation often being plain radiography. The interpretation of this imaging frequently falls to less experienced clinicians despite well-es...
IMPORTANCE: Dual-energy chest radiography exhibits better sensitivity than single-energy chest radiography, partly due to its ability to remove overlying anatomical structures.
We are currently facing extraordinary changes. A harder and harder competition in the field of science is open in each country as well as in continents and worldwide. In this context, what should we teach to young students and doctors? There is a nee...
