Colorectal Cancer(CRC) poses a great risk to public health. It is the third most common cause of cancer in the US. Development of colorectal polyps is one of the earliest signs of cancer. Early detection and resection of polyps can greatly…
This paper proposes an efficient system for classifying cervical cancer cells using pre-trained convolutional neural networks (CNNs). We first fine-tune five pre-trained CNNs and minimize the overall cost of misclassification by…
This paper presents an algorithm which aims to assist the radiologist in identifying breast cancer at its earlier stages. It combines several image processing techniques like image negative, thresholding and segmentation techniques for…
Uterine fibroids (myomas) are the most common benign tumors of the female reproductive system, particularly among women of childbearing age. With a prevalence exceeding 70%, they pose a significant burden on female reproductive health.…
In the cancer diagnosis pipeline, digital pathology plays an instrumental role in the identification, staging, and grading of malignant areas on biopsy tissue specimens. High resolution histology images are subject to high variance in…
Breast cancer is a disease that threatens many women's life, thus, early and accurate detection plays a key role in reducing the mortality rate. Mammography stands as the reference technique for breast cancer screening; nevertheless, many…
Medical imaging is the most important tool for detecting complications in the inner body of medicine. Nowadays, with the development of image processing technology as well as changing the size of photos to higher resolution images in the…
Medical imaging is an essential tool in many areas of medical applications, used for both diagnosis and treatment. However, reading medical images and making diagnosis or treatment recommendations require specially trained medical…
Cervical cancer remains a major malignancy, necessitating extensive and complex histopathological assessments and comprehensive support tools. Although deep learning shows promise, these models still lack accuracy and generalizability.…
Breast cancer is considered as the most fatal type of cancer among women worldwide and it is crucially important to be diagnosed at its early stages. In the current study, we aim to represent a fast and efficient framework which consists of…
Histological evaluation of tissue samples is a typical approach to identify colorectal cancer metastases in the peritoneum. For immediate assessment, reliable and real-time in-vivo imaging would be required. For example, intraoperative…
The appearance of microcalcifications in mammograms is one of the early signs of breast cancer. So, early detection of microcalcification clusters (MCCs) in mammograms can be helpful for cancer diagnosis and better treatment of breast…
Detection of cervical intraepithelial Neoplasia (CIN) at the early stage enables prevention of cervical cancer, which is one of the leading cause of cancer deaths among women. Recently there is a great interest to use the optical…
Cervical cancer threatens the health of women seriously. Radiotherapy is one of the main therapy methods but with high risk of acute hematologic toxicity. Delineating the bone marrow (BM) for sparing using computer tomography (CT) images to…
Among the different types of skin cancer, melanoma is considered to be the deadliest and is difficult to treat at advanced stages. Detection of melanoma at earlier stages can lead to reduced mortality rates. Desktop-based computer-aided…
Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers among women worldwide, with early detection significantly increasing survival rates. Ultrasound imaging is a critical diagnostic tool that aids in early detection by providing real-time…
Quantitative cancer image analysis relies on the accurate delineation of tumours, a very specialised and time-consuming task. For this reason, methods for automated segmentation of tumours in medical imaging have been extensively developed…
We present a computer-aided detection algorithm for polyps in optical colonoscopy images. Polyps are the precursors to colon cancer. In the US alone, more than 14 million optical colonoscopies are performed every year, mostly to screen for…
Automatic thin-prep cytologic test (TCT) screening can assist pathologists in finding cervical abnormality towards accurate and efficient cervical cancer diagnosis. Current automatic TCT screening systems mostly involve abnormal cervical…
Cervical cancer is one of the leading causes of death in women, and brachytherapy is currently the primary treatment method. However, it is important to precisely define the extent of paracervical tissue invasion to improve cancer diagnosis…
