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...
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...

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...
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 ...
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...
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).
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).
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.
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).
