Gliomas are one of the most prevalent types of primary brain tumours, accounting for more than 30\% of all cases and they develop from the glial stem or progenitor cells. In theory, the majority of brain tumours could well be identified…
Multi-contrast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based automatic auxiliary glioma diagnosis plays an important role in the clinic. Contrast-enhanced MRI sequences (e.g., contrast-enhanced T1-weighted imaging) were utilized in most of the…
Xerostomia and radiation-induced salivary gland dysfunction remain a common side effect for head-and-neck radiotherapy patients, and attempts have been made to quantify the heterogeneous dose response within parotid glands. Here several…
A significant challenge in solid tumors is reliably distinguishing confounding pathologies from malignant neoplasms on routine imaging. While radiomics methods seek surrogate markers of lesion heterogeneity on CT/MRI, many aggregate…
In the WHO glioma classification guidelines grade, IDH mutation and 1p19q co-deletion play a central role as they are important markers for prognosis and optimal therapy planning. Therefore, we propose a fully automatic, MRI based, 3D…
Both radiographic (Rad) imaging, such as multi-parametric magnetic resonance imaging, and digital pathology (Path) images captured from tissue samples are currently acquired as standard clinical practice for glioblastoma tumors. Both these…
Medical image segmentation is a critical achievement in modern medical science, developed over decades of research. It allows for the exact delineation of anatomical and pathological features in two- or three-dimensional pictures by…
