The global burden of acute and chronic wounds presents a compelling case for enhancing wound classification methods, a vital step in diagnosing and determining optimal treatments. Recognizing this need, we introduce an innovative…
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) has stimulated a wide range of medical image-based diagnosis and treatment in fields such as cardiology and ophthalmology. Such applications can be further facilitated by deep learning-based…
Gastro-Intestinal Tract cancer is considered a fatal malignant condition of the organs in the GI tract. Due to its fatality, there is an urgent need for medical image segmentation techniques to segment organs to reduce the treatment time…
Melanoma is a type of skin cancer with the most rapidly increasing incidence. Early detection of melanoma using dermoscopy images significantly increases patients' survival rate. However, accurately classifying skin lesions by eye,…
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a non-invasive imaging technique that can produce images of the eye at the microscopic level. OCT image segmentation to localise retinal layer boundaries is a fundamental procedure for diagnosing and…
Tumor volume and changes in tumor characteristics over time are important biomarkers for cancer therapy. In this context, FDG-PET/CT scans are routinely used for staging and re-staging of cancer, as the radiolabeled fluorodeoxyglucose is…
Automatic detection of liver lesions in CT images poses a great challenge for researchers. In this work we present a deep learning approach that models explicitly the variability within the non-lesion class, based on prior knowledge of the…
Computer Aided Diagnosis has emerged as an indispensible technique for validating the opinion of radiologists in CT interpretation. This paper presents a deep 3D Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) architecture for automated CT scan-based…
Automatic lesion detection and segmentation from [${}^{18}$F]FDG PET/CT scans is a challenging task, due to the diversity of shapes, sizes, FDG uptake and location they may present, besides the fact that physiological uptake is also present…
To address the issues of limited samples, time-consuming feature design, and low accuracy in detection and classification of breast cancer pathological images, a breast cancer image classification model algorithm combining deep learning and…
Robust and accurate detection and segmentation of heterogenous tumors appearing in different anatomical organs with supervised methods require large-scale labeled datasets covering all possible types of diseases. Due to the unavailability…
Our objective is to evaluate the efficacy of methods that use deep learning (DL) for the automatic fine-grained segmentation of optical coherence tomography (OCT) images of the retina. OCT images from 10 patients with mild non-proliferative…
In the U.S, 5-10\% of new pediatric cases of cancer are primary bone tumors. The most common type of primary malignant bone tumor is osteosarcoma. The intention of the present work is to improve the detection and diagnosis of osteosarcoma…
Ocular Toxoplasmosis (OT), is a common eye infection caused by T. gondii that can cause vision problems. Diagnosis is typically done through a clinical examination and imaging, but these methods can be complicated and costly, requiring…
In this paper, to collectively address the existing limitations on endoscopic diagnosis of Advanced Gastric Cancer (AGC) Tumors, for the first time, we propose (i) utilization and evaluation of our recently developed Vision-based Tactile…
Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is a pervasive pediatric white blood cell cancer across the globe. With the popularity of convolutional neural networks (CNNs), computer-aided diagnosis of cancer has attracted considerable attention. Such…
Skin lesion identification is a key step toward dermatological diagnosis. When describing a skin lesion, it is very important to note its body site distribution as many skin diseases commonly affect particular parts of the body. To exploit…
Ovarian cancer is the most lethal gynecologic malignancy: around 60% of patients are diagnosed at an advanced stage, with an associated 5-year survival rate of about 30%. Early identification of non-responders to neoadjuvant chemotherapy…
The distinction between malignant and benign tumors is essential to the treatment of cancer. The tissue's elasticity can be used as an indicator for the required tissue characterization. Optical coherence elastography (OCE) probes have been…
Technology-assisted platforms provide reliable solutions in almost every field these days. One such important application in the medical field is the skin cancer classification in preliminary stages that need sensitive and precise data…
