PURPOSE: To evaluate C-11 choline positron emission tomography/computed tomography (CholPET) in staging and determining patterns of recurrence in prostate cancer patients with rising prostate-specific antigen levels after prostatectomy radiation ther...
This paper addresses the automated segmentation of multiple organs in upper abdominal computed tomography (CT) data. The aim of our study is to develop methods to effectively construct the conditional priors and use their prediction power for more ac...
Deep networks have set the state-of-the-art in most image analysis tasks by replacing handcrafted features with learned convolution filters within end-to-end trainable architectures. Still, the specifications of a convolutional network are subject to...
Deep neural networks enable highly accurate image segmentation, but require large amounts of manually annotated data for supervised training. Few-shot learning aims to address this shortcoming by learning a new class from a few annotated support exam...

Gastric motility disorders are associated with bioelectrical abnormalities in the stomach. Recently, gastric ablation has emerged as a potential therapy to correct gastric dysrhythmias. However, the tissue-level effects of gastric ablation have not y...
PURPOSE: To develop deep learning models using thoracoscopic images to identify visceral pleural invasion (VPI) in patients with clinical stage I lung adenocarcinoma, and to verify if these models can be applied clinically.
In order to avoid damaging viscera during poultry evisceration and enhance the economic value of poultry products, this paper proposes a predictive method for poultry carcass visceral dimensions based on 3D point cloud and a Genetic Algorithm-based W...
