The aim was to evaluate a deep learning-based auto-segmentation method for liver delineation in Y-90 selective internal radiation therapy (SIRT). A deep learning (DL)-based liver segmentation model using the U-Net3D architecture was built. Auto-segme...
BACKGROUND: X-ray computed tomography (CT) imaging technology provides high-precision anatomical visualization of patients and has become a standard modality in clinical diagnostics. A widely adopted strategy to mitigate radiation exposure is sparse-...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Accurate medical tumor segmentation is critical for early diagnosis and treatment planning, significantly improving patient outcomes. This study aims to enhance liver and tumor segmentation from CT and liver images by develo...
BACKGROUND: Differentiating chondroid tumors is crucial for proper patient management. This study aimed to develop a deep learning model (DLM) for classifying enchondromas, atypical cartilaginous tumors (ACT), and high-grade chondrosarcomas using CT ...
The kidney plays a vital role in maintaining homeostasis, but lifestyle factors and diseases can lead to kidney failures. Early detection of kidney disease is crucial for effective intervention, often challenging due to unnoticeable symptoms in the i...
Nanomaterials represent an innovation in cancer imaging by offering enhanced contrast, improved targeting capabilities, and multifunctional imaging modalities. Recent advancements in material engineering have enabled the development of nanoparticles ...
RATIONALE: Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) is a key element of treatment for locally advanced breast cancer (LABC). Predicting the response of NAC for patients with LABC before initiating treatment would be valuable to customize therapies and ensure t...
. The dose distribution of lung cancer patients treated with the CyberKnife (CK) system is influenced by various factors, including tumor location and the direction of CK beams. The objective of this study is to present a deep learning approach that ...
PURPOSE: To evaluate the feasibility and utility of deep learning-based computer-aided diagnosis (DL-CAD) for the detection of pulmonary nodules on coronary artery calcium (CAC)-scoring computed tomography (CT).
