CT-based bronchial tree analysis is a key step for the diagnosis of lung and airway diseases. However, the topology of bronchial trees varies across individuals, which presents a challenge to the automatic bronchus classification. To solve this issue...
Deformable image registration is one of the essential processes in analyzing medical images. In particular, when diagnosing abdominal diseases such as hepatic cancer and lymphoma, multi-domain images scanned from different modalities or different ima...
Self-supervised learning (SSL) has long had great success in advancing the field of annotation-efficient learning. However, when applied to CT volume segmentation, most SSL methods suffer from two limitations, including rarely using the information a...
OBJECTIVE: To compare iodine density (ID) and contrast-enhanced attenuation value (CEAV) from dual-layer spectral computed tomography (DLSCT) scans of lymphomatous, metastatic squamous cell carcinoma (SCCA), and normal cervical lymph nodes.
OBJECTIVE: This study aims to assess and compare two state-of-the-art deep learning approaches for segmenting four thoracic organs at riskĀ (OAR)-the esophagus, trachea, heart, and aorta-in CT images in the context of radiotherapy planning.
The article discusses advanced three-dimensional evaluation of hallux valgus deformity using weightbearing computed tomography. Conventional two-dimensional radiographs fall short in assessing the complexity of hallux valgus deformities, whereas weig...
Artificial Intelligence (AI) models may fail or suffer from reduced performance when applied to unseen data that differs from the training data distribution, referred to as dataset shift. Automatic detection of out-of-distribution (OOD) data contribu...
Distinguishing between primary adenocarcinoma (AC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) within non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) tumours holds significant management implications. We assessed the performance of radiomics-based models in distinguishing ...
Immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) treatment has proven successful for advanced melanoma, but is associated with potentially severe toxicity and high costs. Accurate biomarkers for response are lacking. The present work is the first to investigate the...
This paper presents a novel approach for generating virtual non-contrast planning computed tomography (VNC-pCT) images from contrast-enhanced planning CT (CE-pCT) scans using a deep learning model. Unlike previous studies, which often lacked sufficie...
