End to End Unsupervised Rigid Medical Image Registration by Using Convolutional Neural Networks.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
In this paper, we focus on the issue of rigid medical image registration using deep learning. Under ultrasound, the moving of some organs, e.g., liver and kidney, can be modeled as rigid motion. Therefore, when the ultrasound probe keeps stationary, ...

Ultrasound Image Quality Evaluation using a Structural Similarity Based Autoencoder.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Ultrasound (US) imaging is a widely used clinical technique that requires extensive training to use correctly. Good quality US images are essential for effective interpretation of the results, however numerous sources of error can impair quality. Cur...

Stratification of carotid atheromatous plaque using interpretable deep learning methods on B-mode ultrasound images.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Carotid atherosclerosis is the major cause of ischemic stroke resulting in significant rates of mortality and disability annually. Early diagnosis of such cases is of great importance, since it enables clinicians to apply a more effective treatment s...

A CNN Segmentation-Based Approach to Object Detection and Tracking in Ultrasound Scans with Application to the Vagus Nerve Detection.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Ultrasound scanning is essential in several medical diagnostic and therapeutic applications. It is used to visualize and analyze anatomical features and structures that influence treatment plans. However, it is both labor intensive, and its effective...

Unsupervised Deep Learning based Longitudinal Follicular Growth Tracking during IVF Cycle using 3D Transvaginal Ultrasound in Assisted Reproduction.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Longitudinal follicle tracking is needed in clinical practice for diagnosis and management in assisted reproduction. Follicles are tracked over the in-vitro fertilization (IVF) cycle, and this analysis is usually performed manually by a medical pract...

An Approach for Live Motion Correction for TRUS-MR Prostate Fusion Biopsy using Deep Learning.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
TRUS-MR fusion guided biopsy highly depends on the quality of alignment between pre-operative Magnetic Resonance (MR) image and live trans-rectal ultrasound (TRUS) image during biopsy. Lot of factors influence the alignment of prostate during the bio...

XAI Feature Detector for Ultrasound Feature Matching.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Feature matching is a crucial component of computer vision that has various applications. With the emergence of Computer-Aided Diagnosis (CAD), the need for feature matching has also emerged in the medical imaging field. In this paper, we proposed a ...

Towards Fast Region Adaptive Ultrasound Beamformer for Plane Wave Imaging Using Convolutional Neural Networks.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Automatic learning algorithms for improving the image quality of diagnostic B-mode ultrasound (US) images have been gaining popularity in the recent past. In this work, a novel convolutional neural network (CNN) is trained using time of flight correc...

Automatic measurement of fetal femur length in ultrasound images: a comparison of random forest regression model and SegNet.

Mathematical biosciences and engineering : MBE
The aim of this work is the preliminary clinical validation and accuracy evaluation of our automatic algorithms in assessing progression fetal femur length (FL) in ultrasound images. To compare the random forest regression model with the SegNet model...

Deep learning for abdominal ultrasound: A computer-aided diagnostic system for the severity of fatty liver.

Journal of the Chinese Medical Association : JCMA
BACKGROUND: The prevalence of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease is increasing over time worldwide, with similar trends to those of diabetes and obesity. A liver biopsy, the gold standard of diagnosis, is not favored due to its invasiveness. Meanwhile,...
