Purpose: Multiple sclerosis (MS) diagnosis requires accurate assessment of white matter hyperintensities (WMH) and ventricular changes on brain MRI. Current methods treat these structures independently, struggle to differentiate normal from…
Objective To develop a robust and computationally efficient deep learning model for automated left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) estimation from echocardiography videos that is suitable for real-time point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS)…
Background & Aims: Hepatic steatosis is a major cause of chronic liver disease. 2D ultrasound is the most widely used non-invasive tool for screening and monitoring, but associated diagnoses are highly subjective. We developed a scalable…
Pulmonary pathologies are a significant global health concern, often leading to fatal outcomes if not diagnosed and treated promptly. Chest radiography serves as a primary diagnostic tool, but the availability of experienced radiologists…
Background: How can mathematics help us to understand the mechanism of the cardiac motion? The best known approach is to take a mathematical model of the fibered structure, insert it into a more-or-less complex model of cardiac…
Deep learning (DL) 3D dose prediction has recently gained a lot of attention. However, the variability of plan quality in the training dataset, generated manually by planners with wide range of expertise, can dramatically effect the quality…
Large vessel occlusion (LVO) plays an important role in the diagnosis of acute ischemic stroke. Identifying LVO of patients in the early stage on admission would significantly lower the probabilities of suffering from severe effects due to…
The evaluation of obstructions (stenosis) in coronary arteries is currently done by a physician's visual assessment of coronary angiography video sequences. It is laborious, and can be susceptible to interobserver variation. Prior studies…
Automated lobar segmentation allows regional evaluation of lung disease and is important for diagnosis and therapy planning. Advanced statistical workflows permitting such evaluation is a needed area within respiratory medicine; their…
Ventricular tachycardia (VT) can be one cause of sudden cardiac death affecting 4.25 million persons per year worldwide. A curative treatment is catheter ablation in order to inactivate the abnormally triggering regions. To facilitate and…
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading causes of mortality worldwide. The contraction and relaxation of left ventricle (LV) is the main driving force of blood circulation. Altered LV hemodynamics is believed to be associated with…
Cardiovascular diseases, including Heart Failure (HF), remain a leading global cause of mortality, often evading early detection. In this context, accessible and effective risk assessment is indispensable. Traditional approaches rely on…
Malignant ventricular arrhythmias (VT/VF) following acute myocardial infarction (AMI) are a major cause of in-hospital death, yet early identification remains a clinical challenge. While traditional risk scores have limited performance,…
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a leading cause of death globally, necessitating precise forecasting models for monitoring vital signs like heart rate, blood pressure, and ECG. Traditional models, such as ARIMA and Prophet, are limited by…
Following the successful application of the U-Net to medical images, there have been different encoder-decoder models proposed as an improvement to the original U-Net for segmenting echocardiographic images. This study aims to examine the…
Volume change measures derived from longitudinal MRI (e.g. hippocampal atrophy) are a well-studied biomarker of disease progression in Alzheimer's Disease (AD) and are used in clinical trials to track the therapeutic efficacy of…
Purpose: Automatic methods are required for the early detection of hepatic steatosis to avoid progression to cirrhosis and cancer. Here, we developed a fully automated deep learning pipeline to quantify hepatic steatosis on non-contrast…
In this paper, we introduce a new dataset in the medical field of hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage (HICH), called HICH-IT, which includes both electronic medical records (EMRs) and head CT images. This dataset is designed to enhance…
Introduction: Stenotic aortic valve disease (AS) causes pressure overload of the left ventricle (LV) that may trigger adverse remodeling and precipitate progression towards heart failure (HF). As myocardial energetics can be impaired during…
Arrhythmia is just one of the many cardiovascular illnesses that have been extensively studied throughout the years. Using multi-lead ECG data, this research describes a deep learning (DL) pipeline technique based on convolutional neural…
