BACKGROUND: Interstitial lung diseases (ILD), such as idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and non-specific interstitial pneumonia (NSIP), and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are severe, progressive pulmonary disorders with a poor prognos...
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: To carry out radiomics analysis/deep convolutional neural network (CNN) based on B-mode ultrasound (BUS) and shear wave elastography (SWE) to predict response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) in breast cancer patients.

OBJECTIVE: Scanning protocols for lung ultrasound often include 8 or more lung zones, which may limit real-world clinical use. We sought to compare a 2-zone, anterior-superior thoracic ultrasound protocol for B-line artifact detection with an 8-zone ...
Subacromial motion metrics can be extracted from dynamic shoulder ultrasonography, which is useful for identifying abnormal motion patterns in painful shoulders. However, frame-by-frame manual labeling of anatomical landmarks in ultrasound images is ...

PURPOSE: Mutual acceptance is required for any human-to-human interaction. Therefore, one would assume that this also holds for robot-patient interactions. However, the medical robotic imaging field lacks research in the area of acceptance. This work...

Deep learning (DL) can fail when there are data mismatches between training and testing data distributions. Due to its operator-dependent nature, acquisition-related data mismatches, caused by different scanner settings, can occur in ultrasound imagi...
OBJECTIVE: Little information is available about deep learning methods used in ultrasound images of salivary gland tumors. We aimed to compare the accuracy of the ultrasound-trained model to computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging trained m...
Tracking points in ultrasound (US) videos can be especially useful to characterize tissues in motion. Tracking algorithms that analyze successive video frames, such as variations of Optical Flow and Lucas-Kanade (LK), exploit frame-to-frame temporal ...
PURPOSE: We intended to develop a deep-learning-based classification model based on breast ultrasound dynamic video, then evaluate its diagnostic performance in comparison with the classic model based on ultrasound static image and that of different ...

PURPOSE: A capsule robot can be controlled inside gastrointestinal (GI) tract by an external permanent magnet outside of human body for finishing non-invasive diagnosis and treatment. Locomotion control of capsule robot relies on the precise angle fe...
