Worldwide, prostate cancer is one of the main cancers affecting men. The final diagnosis of prostate cancer is based on the visual detection of Gleason patterns in prostate biopsy by pathologists. Computer-aided-diagnosis systems allow to…
Histology method is vital in the diagnosis and prognosis of cancers and many other diseases. For the analysis of histopathological images, we need to detect and segment all gland structures. These images are very challenging, and the task…
Prostate cancer is the most common cancer among US men. However, prostate imaging is still challenging despite the advances in multi-parametric Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), which provides both morphologic and functional information…
Medical imaging based prostate cancer diagnosis procedure uses intra-operative transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) imaging to visualize the prostate shape and location to collect tissue samples. Correct tissue sampling from prostate requires…
Histopathology images contain essential information for medical diagnosis and prognosis of cancerous disease. Segmentation of glands in histopathology images is a primary step for analysis and diagnosis of an unhealthy patient. Due to the…
Prostate cancer represents a major threat to health. Early detection is vital in reducing the mortality rate among prostate cancer patients. One approach involves using multi-modality (CT, MRI, US, etc.) computer-aided diagnosis (CAD)…
Histopathological image analysis is a reliable method for prostate cancer identification. In this paper, we present a comparative analysis of two approaches for segmenting glandular structures in prostate images to automate Gleason grading.…
Prostate and zonal segmentation is a crucial step for clinical diagnosis of prostate cancer (PCa). Computer-aided diagnosis tools for prostate segmentation are based on the deep learning (DL) paradigm. However, deep neural networks are…
Grading of cancer is important to know the extent of its spread. Prior to grading, segmentation of glandular structures is important. Manual segmentation is a time consuming process and is subject to observer bias. Hence, an automated…
Inter-and intra-observer variation in delineating regions of interest (ROIs) occurs because of differences in expertise level and preferences of the radiation oncologists. We evaluated the accuracy of a segmentation model using the U-Net…
Developing an AI-assisted gland segmentation method from histology images is critical for automatic cancer diagnosis and prognosis; however, the high cost of pixel-level annotations hinders its applications to broader diseases. Existing…
Prostate cancer was the third most common cancer in 2020 internationally, coming after breast cancer and lung cancer. Furthermore, in recent years prostate cancer has shown an increasing trend. According to clinical experience, if this…
Prostate cancer is one of the common diseases in men, and it is the most common malignant tumor in developed countries. Studies have shown that the male prostate incidence rate is as high as 2.5% to 16%, Currently, the inci-dence of…
Gland segmentation is a critical step to quantitatively assess the morphology of glands in histopathology image analysis. However, it is challenging to separate densely clustered glands accurately. Existing deep learning-based approaches…
Accurate segmentation of prostate tumours from PET images presents a formidable challenge in medical image analysis. Despite considerable work and improvement in delineating organs from CT and MR modalities, the existing standards do not…
Prostate segmentation from Magnetic Resonance (MR) images plays an important role in image guided interven- tion. However, the lack of clear boundary specifically at the apex and base, and huge variation of shape and texture between the…
The analysis of glandular morphology within colon histopathology images is an important step in determining the grade of colon cancer. Despite the importance of this task, manual segmentation is laborious, time-consuming and can suffer from…
Colon Cancer is one of the most common types of cancer. The treatment is planned to depend on the grade or stage of cancer. One of the preconditions for grading of colon cancer is to segment the glandular structures of tissues. Manual…
Instance segmentation of nuclei and glands in the histology images is an important step in computational pathology workflow for cancer diagnosis, treatment planning and survival analysis. With the advent of modern hardware, the recent…
Accurate segmentation of the prostate is a key step in external beam radiation therapy treatments. In this paper, we tackle the challenging task of prostate segmentation in CT images by a two-stage network with 1) the first stage to fast…
