CDT-CAD: Context-Aware Deformable Transformers for End-to-End Chest Abnormality Detection on X-Ray Images.

IEEE/ACM transactions on computational biology and bioinformatics
Deep learning methods have achieved great success in medical image analysis domain. However, most of them suffer from slow convergency and high computing cost, which prevents their further widely usage in practical scenarios. Moreover, it has been pr...

A lightweight deep learning approach for detecting electrocardiographic lead misplacement.

Physiological measurement
. Electrocardiographic (ECG) lead misplacement can result in distorted waveforms and amplitudes, significantly impacting accurate interpretation. Although lead misplacement is a relatively low-probability event, with an incidence ranging from 0.4% to...

Influence of deep learning image reconstruction algorithm for reducing radiation dose and image noise compared to iterative reconstruction and filtered back projection for head and chest computed tomography examinations: a systematic review.

F1000Research
BACKGROUND: The most recent advances in Computed Tomography (CT) image reconstruction technology are Deep learning image reconstruction (DLIR) algorithms. Due to drawbacks in Iterative reconstruction (IR) techniques such as negative image texture and...

HGCMorph: joint discontinuity-preserving and pose-learning via GNN and capsule networks for deformable medical images registration.

Physics in medicine and biology
This study aims to enhance medical image registration by addressing the limitations of existing approaches that rely on spatial transformations through U-Net, ConvNets, or Transformers. The objective is to develop a novel architecture that combines C...

Screening and staging of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease with deep learning based on chest X-ray images and clinical parameters.

BMC pulmonary medicine
BACKGROUND: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is underdiagnosed with the current gold standard measure pulmonary function test (PFT). A more sensitive and simple option for early detection and severity evaluation of COPD could benefit prac...

Hierarchical medical image report adversarial generation with hybrid discriminator.

Artificial intelligence in medicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Generating coherent reports from medical images is an important task for reducing doctors' workload. Unlike traditional image captioning tasks, the task of medical image report generation faces more challenges. Current mode...

Coarse-to-fine visual representation learning for medical images via class activation maps.

Computers in biology and medicine
The value of coarsely labeled datasets in learning transferable representations for medical images is investigated in this work. Compared to fine labels which require meticulous effort to annotate, coarse labels can be acquired at a significantly low...

Artificial intelligence-based model for predicting pulmonary arterial hypertension on chest x-ray images.

BMC pulmonary medicine
BACKGROUND: Pulmonary arterial hypertension is a serious medical condition. However, the condition is often misdiagnosed or a rather long delay occurs from symptom onset to diagnosis, associated with decreased 5-year survival. In this study, we devel...

Lung-DT: An AI-Powered Digital Twin Framework for Thoracic Health Monitoring and Diagnosis.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) with Digital Twins (DTs) has emerged as a promising approach to revolutionize healthcare, particularly in terms of diagnosis and management of thoracic disorders. This study proposes a comprehensive fra...

Edge roughness quantifies impact of physician variation on training and performance of deep learning auto-segmentation models for the esophagus.

Scientific reports
Manual segmentation of tumors and organs-at-risk (OAR) in 3D imaging for radiation-therapy planning is time-consuming and subject to variation between different observers. Artificial intelligence (AI) can assist with segmentation, but challenges exis...
