Craniofacial anomaly including deformational plagiocephaly as a result of deformities in head and facial bones evolution is a serious health problem in newbies. The impact of such condition on the affected infants is profound from both medical and so...
Correct virtual reconstruction of a defective skull is a prerequisite for successful cranioplasty and its automatization has the potential for accelerating and standardizing the clinical workflow. This work provides a deep learning-based method for t...
BACKGROUND: The image segmentation of skull CT is the cornerstone for the computer-assisted craniomaxillofacial surgery in multiple aspects. This study aims to introduce an AI-enabled automatic segmentation and propose its prospect in facilitating th...
Skull-stripping and region segmentation are fundamental steps in preclinical magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies, and these common procedures are usually performed manually. We present Multi-task U-Net (MU-Net), a convolutional neural network de...
BACKGROUND: No large dataset-derived standard has been established for normal or pathologic human cerebral ventricular and cranial vault volumes. Automated volumetric measurements could be used to assist in diagnosis and follow-up of hydrocephalus or...

The aim of the present study is to apply support vector machines (SVM) and artificial neural network (ANN) as sex classifiers and to generate useful classification models for sex estimation based on cranial measurements. Besides, the performance of t...
The study of morphological modularity using anatomical networks is growing in recent years. A common strategy to find the best network partition uses community detection algorithms that optimize the modularity Q function. Because anatomical networks ...
Intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) occurs when a blood vessel ruptures in the brain. This leads to significant morbidity and mortality, the likelihood of which is predicated on the size of the bleeding event. X-ray computed tomography (CT) scans allow cli...
The successful development of the image denoising techniques for low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) was largely owing to the public-domain availability of spatially-aligned high- and low-dose CT image pairs. Even though low-dose CT scans are also hi...
