Limited angle tomography for transmission X-ray microscopy using deep learning.

Journal of synchrotron radiation
In transmission X-ray microscopy (TXM) systems, the rotation of a scanned sample might be restricted to a limited angular range to avoid collision with other system parts or high attenuation at certain tilting angles. Image reconstruction from such l...

Decoding rejuvenating effects of mechanical loading on skeletal aging using in vivo μCT imaging and deep learning.

Acta biomaterialia
Throughout the process of aging, dynamic changes of bone material, micro- and macro-architecture result in a loss of strength and therefore in an increased likelihood of fragility fractures. To date, precise contributions of age-related changes in bo...

Application of a robotic THz imaging system for sub-surface analysis of ancient human remains.

Scientific reports
We used a robotic-based THz imaging system to investigate the sub-surface structure of an artificially mummified ancient Egyptian human left hand. The results obtained are compared to the results of a conventional CT and a micro-CT scan. Using such a...

Flexible Learning-Free Segmentation and Reconstruction of Neural Volumes.

Scientific reports
Imaging is a dominant strategy for data collection in neuroscience, yielding stacks of images that often scale to gigabytes of data for a single experiment. Machine learning algorithms from computer vision can serve as a pair of virtual eyes that tir...

Comparative microstructural analysis of bone osteotomies after cutting by computer-assisted robot-guided laser osteotome and piezoelectric osteotome: an in vivo animal study.

Lasers in medical science
Most industrial laser applications utilize computer and robot assistance, for guidance, safety, repeatability, and precision. In contrast, medical applications using laser systems are mostly conducted manually. The advantages can be effective only wh...

Fuzzy Object Skeletonization: Theory, Algorithms, and Applications.

IEEE transactions on visualization and computer graphics
Skeletonization offers a compact representation of an object while preserving important topological and geometrical features. Literature on skeletonization of binary objects is quite mature. However, challenges involved with skeletonization of fuzzy ...

An Automatic Segmentation and Classification Framework Based on PCNN Model for Single Tooth in MicroCT Images.

PloS one
Accurate segmentation and classification of different anatomical structures of teeth from medical images plays an essential role in many clinical applications. Usually, the anatomical structures of teeth are manually labelled by experienced clinical ...

A segmentation and classification scheme for single tooth in MicroCT images based on 3D level set and k-means+.

Computerized medical imaging and graphics : the official journal of the Computerized Medical Imaging Society
Accurate classification of different anatomical structures of teeth from medical images provides crucial information for the stress analysis in dentistry. Usually, the anatomical structures of teeth are manually labeled by experienced clinical doctor...

A Non-Destructive Method for Distinguishing Reindeer Antler (Rangifer tarandus) from Red Deer Antler (Cervus elaphus) Using X-Ray Micro-Tomography Coupled with SVM Classifiers.

PloS one
Over the last decade, biomedical 3D-imaging tools have gained widespread use in the analysis of prehistoric bone artefacts. While initial attempts to characterise the major categories used in osseous industry (i.e. bone, antler, and dentine/ivory) ha...

Ensemble methods and partially-supervised learning for accurate and robust automatic murine organ segmentation.

Scientific reports
Delineation of multiple organs in murine µCT images is crucial for preclinical studies but requires manual volumetric segmentation, a tedious and time-consuming process prone to inter-observer variability. Automatic deep learning-based segmentation c...
