Locating lesions is important in the computer-aided diagnosis of X-ray images. However, box-level annotation is time-consuming and laborious. How to locate lesions accurately with few, or even without careful annotations is an urgent…
Due to its powerful capability of self-supervised representation learning and clustering, contrastive attributed graph clustering (CAGC) has achieved great success, which mainly depends on effective data augmentation and contrastive…
Recent advances in deep learning based image segmentation methods have enabled real-time performance with human-level accuracy. However, occasionally even the best method fails due to low image quality, artifacts or unexpected behaviour of…
A recently proposed scatter-window and deep learning-based attenuation compensation (AC) method for myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) by single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), namely CTLESS, demonstrated promising performance…
Computed Tomography (CT) is a medical imaging modality that can generate more informative 3D images than 2D X-rays. However, this advantage comes at the expense of more radiation exposure, higher costs, and longer acquisition time. Hence,…
Abdominal computed tomography (CT) scans are frequently performed in clinical settings. Opportunistic CT involves repurposing routine CT images to extract diagnostic information and is an emerging tool for detecting underdiagnosed…
Computer-Aided-Diagnosis (CADx) systems assist radiologists with identifying and classifying potentially malignant pulmonary nodules on chest CT scans using morphology and texture-based (radiomic) features. However, radiomic features are…
Quantification of cardiac biomarkers from cine cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) data using deep learning (DL) methods offers many advantages, such as increased accuracy and faster analysis. However, only a few studies have focused on…
Segmentation of the coronary artery is an important task for the quantitative analysis of coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) images and is being stimulated by the field of deep learning. However, the complex structures with…
Deep learning has a great potential to alleviate diagnosis and prognosis for various clinical procedures. However, the lack of a sufficient number of medical images is the most common obstacle in conducting image-based analysis using deep…
Clinical screening with low-quality fundus images is challenging and significantly leads to misdiagnosis. This paper addresses the issue of improving the retinal image quality and vessel segmentation through retinal image restoration. More…
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) requires accurate risk stratification to inform decisions regarding ICD therapy and follow-up management. Current established models, such as the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) score, exhibit moderate…
In stable coronary artery disease (CAD), reduction in mortality and/or myocardial infarction with revascularization over medical therapy has not been reliably achieved. Coronary arteries are usually extracted to perform stenosis detection.…
Background: Colorectal adenocarcinoma (CRC) remains a leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide, with variable patient outcomes despite treatment advances. Traditional prognostic methods based on clinicopathological variables…
Performing recognition tasks using latent fingerprint samples is often challenging for automated identification systems due to poor quality, distortion, and partially missing information from the input samples. We propose a direct latent…
Purpose: There is increasing interest in computed tomography (CT) image estimations from magnetic resonance (MR) images. The estimated CT images can be utilised for attenuation correction, patient positioning, and dose planning in…
Contrastive learning yields impressive results for self-supervision in computer vision. The approach relies on the creation of positive pairs, something which is often achieved through augmentations. However, for multivariate time series…
This paper proposes a segmentation method of infection regions in the lung from CT volumes of COVID-19 patients. COVID-19 spread worldwide, causing many infected patients and deaths. CT image-based diagnosis of COVID-19 can provide quick…
In Europe the 20% of the CT scans cover the thoracic region. The acquired images contain information about the cardiovascular system that often remains latent due to the lack of contrast in the cardiac area. On the other hand, the contrast…
Cardiotocography (CTG) is essential for fetal monitoring but is frequently compromised by diverse artefacts which obscure true fetal heart rate (FHR) patterns and can lead to misdiagnosis or delayed intervention. Current deep-learning…
