Automated detection of posterior urethral valves in voiding cystourethrography images: A novel AI-Based pipeline for enhanced diagnosis and classification.

Computers in biology and medicine
INTRODUCTION: Posterior Urethral Valves (PUV) are rare congenital anomalies of the male urinary tract that can lead to urethral obstruction and increased risk of kidney disease. Traditional diagnosis relies on subjective interpretation of imaging tec...

Deep-learning-based method for the segmentation of ureter and renal pelvis on non-enhanced CT scans.

Scientific reports
This study aimed to develop a deep-learning (DL) based method for three-dimensional (3D) segmentation of the upper urinary tract (UUT), including ureter and renal pelvis, on non-enhanced computed tomography (NECT) scans. A total of 150 NECT scans wit...

Radiomics-based machine learning approach for the prediction of grade and stage in upper urinary tract urothelial carcinoma: a step towards virtual biopsy.

International journal of surgery (London, England)
OBJECTIVES: Upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) is a rare, aggressive lesion, with early detection a key to its management. This study aimed to utilise computed tomographic urogram data to develop machine learning models for predicting tumour gra...

A novel model of artificial intelligence based automated image analysis of CT urography to identify bladder cancer in patients investigated for macroscopic hematuria.

Scandinavian journal of urology
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate whether artificial intelligence (AI) based automatic image analysis utilising convolutional neural networks (CNNs) can be used to evaluate computed tomography urography (CTU) for the presence of urinary bladder cancer (UBC) in ...

Quantitative measurement of the ureter on three-dimensional magnetic resonance urography images using deep learning.

Medical physics
BACKGROUND: Accurate measurement of ureteral diameters plays a pivotal role in diagnosing and monitoring urinary tract obstruction (UTO). While three-dimensional magnetic resonance urography (3D MRU) represents a significant advancement in imaging, t...

A computed tomography urography-based machine learning model for predicting preoperative pathological grade of upper urinary tract urothelial carcinoma.

Cancer medicine
OBJECTIVES: Development and validation of a computed tomography urography (CTU)-based machine learning (ML) model for prediction of preoperative pathology grade of upper urinary tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC).

Low-dose CT urography using deep learning image reconstruction: a prospective study for comparison with conventional CT urography.

The British journal of radiology
OBJECTIVES: To compare the image quality of low-dose CT urography (LD-CTU) using deep learning image reconstruction (DLIR) with conventional CTU (C-CTU) using adaptive statistical iterative reconstruction (ASIR-V).

U-Net based deep learning bladder segmentation in CT urography.

Medical physics
OBJECTIVES: To develop a U-Net-based deep learning approach (U-DL) for bladder segmentation in computed tomography urography (CTU) as a part of a computer-assisted bladder cancer detection and treatment response assessment pipeline.

Deep-learning convolutional neural network: Inner and outer bladder wall segmentation in CT urography.

Medical physics
PURPOSE: We are developing a computerized segmentation tool for the inner and outer bladder wall as a part of an image analysis pipeline for CT urography (CTU).
