In recent years, deep learning models have been applied to neuroimaging data for early diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Structural magnetic resonance imaging (sMRI) and positron emission tomography (PET) images provide structural and…
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder that affects more than seven million people in the United States alone. AD currently has no cure, but there are ways to potentially slow its progression if caught early enough. In…
Alzheimer's Disease is an incurable cognitive condition that affects thousands of people globally. While some diagnostic methods exist for Alzheimer's Disease, many of these methods cannot detect Alzheimer's in its earlier stages. Recently,…
Background:Cognitive assessments represent the most common clinical routine for the diagnosis of Alzheimer's Disease (AD). Given a large number of cognitive assessment tools and time-limited office visits, it is important to determine a…
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) provides detailed structural information, while functional MRI (fMRI) captures temporal brain activity. In this work, we present a multimodal deep learning framework that integrates MRI and fMRI for…
Medical vision-language models (Med-VLMs) have shown impressive results in tasks such as report generation and visual question answering, but they still face several limitations. Most notably, they underutilize patient metadata and lack…
There is a need for automatic diagnosis of certain diseases from medical images that could help medical practitioners for further assessment towards treating the illness. Alzheimers disease is a good example of a disease that is often…
Information from neuroimaging examinations is increasingly used to support diagnoses of dementia, e.g., Alzheimer's disease. While current clinical practice is mainly based on visual inspection and feature engineering, Deep Learning…
Neuropsychiatric symptoms (NPS) such as depression and apathy are common in Alzheimer's disease (AD) and often precede cognitive decline. NPS assessments hold promise as early detection markers due to their correlation with disease…
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the leading cause of dementia, and its early detection is crucial for effective intervention, yet current diagnostic methods often fall short in sensitivity and specificity. This study aims to detect significant…
Geometric deep learning can find representations that are optimal for a given task and therefore improve the performance over pre-defined representations. While current work has mainly focused on point representations, meshes also contain…
Recent evidence has shown that structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is an effective tool for Alzheimer's disease (AD) prediction and diagnosis. While traditional MRI-based diagnosis uses images acquired at a single time point, a…
For precision medicine and personalized treatment, we need to identify predictive markers of disease. We focus on Alzheimer's disease (AD), where magnetic resonance imaging scans provide information about the disease status. By combining…
Collecting and accessing a large amount of medical data is very time-consuming and laborious, not only because it is difficult to find specific patients but also because it is required to resolve the confidentiality of a patient's medical…
This study presents an innovative method for Alzheimer's disease diagnosis using 3D MRI designed to enhance the explainability of model decisions. Our approach adopts a soft attention mechanism, enabling 2D CNNs to extract volumetric…
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative condition characterized by the death of dopaminergic neurons, leading to various movement disorder symptoms. Early diagnosis of PD is crucial to prevent adverse effects, yet…
The rapid global aging trend has led to an increase in dementia cases, including Alzheimer's disease, underscoring the urgent need for early and accurate diagnostic methods. Traditional diagnostic techniques, such as cognitive tests,…
Alzheimer's disease (AD) diagnosis is complex, requiring the integration of imaging and clinical data for accurate assessment. While deep learning has shown promise in brain MRI analysis, it often functions as a black box, limiting…
As societies around the world are ageing, the number of Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients is rapidly increasing. To date, no low-cost, non-invasive biomarkers have been established to advance the objectivization of AD diagnosis and…
Motivation. While recent studies show high accuracy in the classification of Alzheimer's disease using deep neural networks, the underlying learned concepts have not been investigated. Goals. To systematically identify changes in brain…
