PURPOSE: This work aims to facilitate a fast magnetic resonance (MR)-only workflow for radiation therapy of intracranial tumors. Here, we evaluate whether synthetic computed tomography (sCT) images generated with a dilated convolutional neural networ...
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis & frontotemporal degeneration
Jun 4, 2018
OBJECTIVE: F-Fluorodeoxyglucose (F-FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) single-center studies using support vector machine (SVM) approach to differentiate amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) from controls have shown high overall accuracy on an ind...
The widely used American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status (ASA PS) classification is subjective, requires manual clinician review to score, and has limited granularity. Our objective was to develop a system that automatically generates an...

PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to use machine learning to predict abdominal recurrence on CT on the basis of serial cancer antigen 125 (CA125) levels in patients with advanced high-grade serous ovarian cancer on surveillance.
Magnetic resonance in medical sciences : MRMS : an official journal of Japan Society of Magnetic Resonance in Medicine
May 16, 2018
PURPOSE: Although advanced MRI techniques are increasingly available, imaging differentiation between glioblastoma and primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) is sometimes confusing. We aimed to evaluate the performance of image classificatio...
INTRODUCTION: Machine learning methods have been introduced as a computer aided diagnostic tool, with applications to glioma characterisation on MRI. Such an algorithmic approach may provide a useful adjunct for a rapid and accurate diagnosis of a gl...
