Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is caused by a sudden trauma to the head that may result in hematomas and contusions and can lead to stroke or chronic disability. An accurate quantification of the lesion volumes and their locations is…

Acute intracerebral hemorrhage is a life-threatening condition that demands immediate medical intervention. Intraparenchymal hemorrhage (IPH) and intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) are critical subtypes of this condition. Clinically, when…

Automated analysis of volumetric medical imaging on edge devices is severely constrained by the high memory and computational demands of 3D Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs). This paper develops a lightweight computer vision framework…

Haemorrhaging of the brain is the leading cause of death in people between the ages of 15 and 24 and the third leading cause of death in people older than that. Computed tomography (CT) is an imaging modality used to diagnose neurological…

In clinical settings, intracranial hemorrhages (ICH) are routinely diagnosed using non-contrast CT (NCCT) for severity assessment. Accurate automated segmentation of ICH lesions is the initial and essential step, immensely useful for such…
