Accurate segmentation of critical anatomical structures is at the core of medical image analysis. The main bottleneck lies in gathering the requisite expert-labeled image annotations in a scalable manner. Methods that permit to produce…
Training segmentation models for medical images continues to be challenging due to the limited availability of data annotations. Segment Anything Model (SAM) is a foundation model that is intended to segment user-defined objects of interest…
X-ray is one of the prevalent image modalities for the detection and diagnosis of the human body. X-ray provides an actual anatomical structure of an organ present with disease or absence of disease. Segmentation of disease in chest X-ray…
The Segment Anything Model (SAM), originally built on a 2D Vision Transformer (ViT), excels at capturing global patterns in 2D natural images but struggles with 3D medical imaging modalities like CT and MRI. These modalities require…
CT reconstruction provides radiologists with images for diagnosis and treatment, yet current deep learning methods are typically limited to specific anatomies and datasets, hindering generalization ability to unseen anatomies and lesions.…
Chest X-ray (CXR) is one of the most commonly prescribed medical imaging procedures, often with over 2-10x more scans than other imaging modalities such as MRI, CT scan, and PET scans. These voluminous CXR scans place significant workloads…
Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging is the gold standard for diagnosing several heart diseases due to its non-invasive nature and proper contrast. MR imaging is time-consuming because of signal acquisition and image formation…
Image registration is an essential technique for the analysis of Computed Tomography (CT) images in clinical practice. However, existing methodologies are predominantly tailored to a specific organ of interest and often exhibit lower…
Industrial cone-beam X-ray computed tomography (CT) scans of additively manufactured components produce a 3D reconstruction from projection measurements acquired at multiple predetermined rotation angles of the component about a single…
Automatically determining the position of every slice in a CT scan is a basic yet powerful capability allowing fast retrieval of region of interest for visual inspection and automated analysis. Unlike conventional localization approaches…

Manual segmentation of medical images (e.g., segmenting tumors in CT scans) is a high-effort task that can be accelerated with machine learning techniques. However, selecting the right segmentation approach depends on the evaluation…
Clinical systems operate in safety-critical environments and are not intended to function autonomously; however, they are currently designed to replicate clinicians' diagnoses rather than assist them in the diagnostic process. To enable…
Organoids are complex, three dimensional, self-organizing cell cultures which manifest organ-like features and represent a powerful platform for studying human disease and developing treatment options. Organoid development is characterized…
Medical image fusion is the process of registering and combining multiple images from single or multiple imaging modalities to improve the imaging quality and reduce randomness and redundancy in order to increase the clinical applicability…
Purpose: Repeated brain MRI scans are performed in many clinical scenarios, such as follow up of patients with tumors and therapy response assessment. In this paper, the authors show an approach to utilize former scans of the patient for…
Segmenting anatomical structures in medical images has been successfully addressed with deep learning methods for a range of applications. However, this success is heavily dependent on the quality of the image that is being segmented. A…
Medical image analysis, especially segmenting a specific organ, has an important role in developing clinical decision support systems. In cardiac magnetic resonance (MR) imaging, segmenting the left and right ventricles helps physicians…
Medical image segmentation plays an important role in computer-aided diagnosis. Attention mechanisms that distinguish important parts from irrelevant parts have been widely used in medical image segmentation tasks. This paper systematically…
