OBJECTIVE: Based on ultrasound (US) images, this study aimed to detect and quantify calcifications of thyroid nodules, which are regarded as one of the most important features in US diagnosis of thyroid cancer, and to further investigate the value of...
BACKGROUND: Based on the critical role of MT4-MMP and MT6-MMP in carcinogenesis, we focused on MT4-MMP and MT6-MMP circulating levels in patients with thyroid nodules.
OBJECTIVES: The purpose is to apply a previously validated deep learning algorithm to a new thyroid nodule ultrasound image dataset and compare its performances with radiologists.
BACKGROUND: Identifying thyroid nodules' boundaries is crucial for making an accurate clinical assessment. However, manual segmentation is time-consuming. This paper utilized U-Net and its improved methods to automatically segment thyroid nodules and...

Nodules of thyroid cancer occur in the cells of the thyroid as benign or malign types. Thyroid sonographic images are mostly used for diagnosis of thyroid cancer. The aim of this study is to introduce a computer-aided diagnosis system that can classi...
Neural network models have been used to analyze thyroid ultrasound (US) images and stratify malignancy risk of the thyroid nodules. We investigated the optimal neural network condition for thyroid US image analysis. We compared scratch and transfer l...
Thyroid nodules, a common disease of endocrine system, have a probability of nearly 10% to turn into malignant nodules and thus pose a serious threat to health. Automatic segmentation of thyroid nodules is of great importance for clinicopathological ...
BACKGROUND: Several studies have used artificial intelligence (AI) to analyze cytology images, but AI has yet to be adopted in clinical practice. The objective of this study was to demonstrate the accuracy of AI-based image analysis for thyroid fine-...
