Polyp segmentation is a critical step in colorectal cancer detection, yet it remains challenging due to the diverse shapes, sizes, and low contrast boundaries of polyps in medical imaging. In this work, we propose a novel framework that…
Colonoscopy videos provide richer information in polyp segmentation for rectal cancer diagnosis. However, the endoscope's fast moving and close-up observing make the current methods suffer from large spatial incoherence and continuous…
Digital pathology involves converting physical tissue slides into high-resolution Whole Slide Images (WSIs), which pathologists analyze for disease-affected tissues. However, large histology slides with numerous microscopic fields pose…
Abnormalities in the gastrointestinal tract significantly influence the patient's health and require a timely diagnosis for effective treatment. With such consideration, an effective automatic classification of these abnormalities from a…
The Medico: Multimedia Task 2020 focuses on developing an efficient and accurate computer-aided diagnosis system for automatic segmentation [3]. We participate in task 1, Polyps segmentation task, which is to develop algorithms for…
Automatic polyp segmentation has proven to be immensely helpful for endoscopy procedures, reducing the missing rate of adenoma detection for endoscopists while increasing efficiency. However, classifying a polyp as being neoplasm or not and…
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third cause of cancer death worldwide. Currently, the standard approach to reduce CRC-related mortality is to perform regular screening in search for polyps and colonoscopy is the screening tool of choice. The…
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…
Colonoscopy is crucial for identifying adenomatous polyps and preventing colorectal cancer. However, developing robust models for polyp detection is challenging by the limited size and accessibility of existing colonoscopy datasets. While…
The images captured by Wireless Capsule Endoscopy (WCE) always exhibit specular reflections, and removing highlights while preserving the color and texture in the region remains a challenge. To address this issue, this paper proposes a…
Accurate segmentation of polyps from colonoscopy images is crucial for the early diagnosis and treatment of colorectal cancer. Most existing deep learning-based polyp segmentation methods adopt an Encoder-Decoder architecture, and some…
Virtual colonoscopy (VC) allows a physician to virtually navigate within a reconstructed 3D colon model searching for colorectal polyps. Though VC is widely recognized as a highly sensitive and specific test for identifying polyps, one…
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a significant global health concern, and early detection through screening plays a critical role in reducing mortality. While deep learning models have shown promise in improving polyp detection, classification,…
This paper presents a novel supervised convolutional neural network architecture, "DUCK-Net", capable of effectively learning and generalizing from small amounts of medical images to perform accurate segmentation tasks. Our model utilizes…
There is no method to quantify the spatial complexity within colon polyps. This paper describes a spatial transformation that translates the tissue architecture within a polyp, or a normal colon lining, into a complex sinusoid wave composed…
Colorectal cancer is the third most common cancer-related death after lung cancer and breast cancer worldwide. The risk of developing colorectal cancer could be reduced by early diagnosis of polyps during a colonoscopy. Computer-aided…
Superpixel segmentation consists of partitioning images into regions composed of similar and connected pixels. Its methods have been widely used in many computer vision applications since it allows for reducing the workload, removing…
Capsule endoscopy (CE) enables non-invasive gastrointestinal screening, but current CE research remains largely limited to frame-level classification and detection, leaving video-level analysis underexplored. To bridge this gap, we…
