Biomedical image segmentation is lately dominated by deep neural networks (DNNs) due to their surpassing expert-level performance. However, the existing DNN models for biomedical image segmentation are generally highly parameterized, which severely i...
We propose a novel deep learning based system for vessel segmentation. Existing methods using CNNs have mostly relied on local appearances learned on the regular image grid, without consideration of the graphical structure of vessel shape. Effective ...
Retinal oximetry is a non-invasive technique to investigate the hemodynamics, vasculature and health of the eye. Current techniques for retinal oximetry have been plagued by quantitatively inconsistent measurements and this has greatly limited their ...
OBJECTIVE: A novel supervised method that is based on the Multi-Proportion Channel Ensemble Model (MPC-EM) is proposed to obtain more vessel details with reduced computational complexity.
Optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) is a relatively new imaging modality that generates microvasculature map. Meanwhile, deep learning has been recently attracting considerable attention in image-to-image translation, such as image denois...
