Periodontal disease is a significant global oral health problem. Radiographic staging is critical in determining periodontitis severity and treatment requirements. This study aims to automatically stage periodontal bone loss using a deep learning app...
BACKGROUND: Adverse outcomes from moderate aortic stenosis (AS) may be caused by progression to severe AS or by the effects of comorbidities. In the absence of randomized trial evidence favoring aortic valve replacement (AVR) in patients with moderat...
BACKGROUND: Considering the high prevalence of mitral regurgitation (MR) and the highly subjective, variable MR severity reporting, an automated tool that could screen patients for clinically significant MR (≥ moderate) would streamline the diagnosti...
BACKGROUND: Diagnosis of mitral regurgitation (MR) requires careful evaluation by echocardiography with Doppler imaging. This study presents the development and validation of a fully automated deep learning pipeline for identifying apical 4-chamber v...

In this paper, a CNN-MLP model (CMM) is proposed for COVID-19 lesion segmentation and severity grading in CT images. The CMM starts by lung segmentation using UNet, and then segmenting the lesion from the lung region using a multi-scale deep supervis...
A heart-convolutional neural network (heart-CNN) was designed and tested for the automatic classification of chest radiographs in dogs affected by myxomatous mitral valve disease (MMVD) at different stages of disease severity. A retrospective and mul...

OBJECTIVE: The Sunnybrook Facial Grading System (SFGS) is a well-established grading system to assess the severity and progression of a unilateral facial palsy. The automation of the SFGS makes the SFGS more accessible for researchers, students, clin...
Parkinson's disease (PD) exhibits heterogeneity in terms of symptoms and prognosis, likely due to diverse neuroanatomical alterations. This study employs a contrastive deep learning approach to analyze Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) data from 932 P...
