RS-Net: An end-to-end deep learning framework for rodent skull stripping in multi-center brain MRI.

NeuroImage
Skull stripping is a crucial preprocessing step in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), where experts manually create brain masks. This labor-intensive process heavily relies on the annotator's expertise, as automation faces challenges such as low tissu...

Estimating infant age from skull X-ray images using deep learning.

Scientific reports
This study constructed deep learning models using plain skull radiograph images to predict the accurate postnatal age of infants under 12 months. Utilizing the results of the trained deep learning models, it aimed to evaluate the feasibility of emplo...

Functional data geometric morphometrics with machine learning for craniodental shape classification in shrews.

Scientific reports
This work proposes a functional data analysis approach for morphometrics in classifying three shrew species (S. murinus, C. monticola, and C. malayana) from Peninsular Malaysia. Functional data geometric morphometrics (FDGM) for 2D landmark data is i...

Sex classification of 3D skull images using deep neural networks.

Scientific reports
Determining the fundamental characteristics that define a face as "feminine" or "masculine" has long fascinated anatomists and plastic surgeons, particularly those involved in aesthetic and gender-affirming surgery. Previous studies in this area have...

Back to the Roots: Reconstructing Large and Complex Cranial Defects using an Image-based Statistical Shape Model.

Journal of medical systems
Designing implants for large and complex cranial defects is a challenging task, even for professional designers. Current efforts on automating the design process focused mainly on convolutional neural networks (CNN), which have produced state-of-the-...

Quantifying dysmorphologies of the neurocranium using artificial neural networks.

Journal of anatomy
BACKGROUND: Craniosynostosis, a congenital condition characterized by the premature fusion of cranial sutures, necessitates objective methods for evaluating cranial morphology to enhance patient treatment. Current subjective assessments often lead to...

Phase Aberration Correction for In Vivo Ultrasound Localization Microscopy Using a Spatiotemporal Complex-Valued Neural Network.

IEEE transactions on medical imaging
Ultrasound Localization Microscopy (ULM) can map microvessels at a resolution of a few micrometers ( [Formula: see text]). Transcranial ULM remains challenging in presence of aberrations caused by the skull, which lead to localization errors. Herein,...

Assessment of accuracy and reproducibility of cephalometric identification performed by 2 artificial intelligence-driven tracing applications and human examiners.

Oral surgery, oral medicine, oral pathology and oral radiology
OBJECTIVE: To assess the accuracy and reproducibility of cephalometric landmark identification performed by 2 artificial intelligence (AI)-driven applications (CefBot and WebCeph) and human examiners.
