$\textbf{Purpose}$ To train a cycle-consistent generative adversarial network (CycleGAN) on mammographic data to inject or remove features of malignancy, and to determine whether these AI-mediated attacks can be detected by radiologists.…
Video streams are utilised to guide minimally-invasive surgery and diagnostic procedures in a wide range of procedures, and many computer assisted techniques have been developed to automatically analyse them. These approaches can provide…
Colonic polyps are well-recognized precursors to colorectal cancer (CRC), typically detected during colonoscopy. However, the variability in appearance, location, and size of these polyps complicates their detection and removal, leading to…
Colorectal polyps are generally benign alterations that, if not identified promptly and managed successfully, can progress to cancer and cause affectations on the colon mucosa, known as adenocarcinoma. Today advances in Deep Learning have…
In this study, toward addressing the over-confident outputs of existing artificial intelligence-based colorectal cancer (CRC) polyp classification techniques, we propose a confidence-calibrated residual neural network. Utilizing a novel…
Endoscopy is a routine imaging technique used for both diagnosis and minimally invasive surgical treatment. Artifacts such as motion blur, bubbles, specular reflections, floating objects and pixel saturation impede the visual interpretation…
Colorectal cancer is one of the deadliest cancers today, but it can be prevented through early detection of malignant polyps in the colon, primarily via colonoscopies. While this method has saved many lives, human error remains a…
Polyp segmentation is a crucial step towards computer-aided diagnosis of colorectal cancer. However, most of the polyp segmentation methods require pixel-wise annotated datasets. Annotated datasets are tedious and time-consuming to produce,…
This paper contributes to automating medical image segmentation by proposing generative adversarial network-based models to segment both polyps and instruments in endoscopy images. A major contribution of this work is to provide…
A deep learning-based monocular depth estimation (MDE) technique is proposed for selection of most informative frames (key frames) of an endoscopic video. In most of the cases, ground truth depth maps of polyps are not readily available and…
Colorectal cancer is a deadly disease that has become increasingly prevalent in recent years. Early detection is crucial for saving lives, but traditional diagnostic methods such as colonoscopy and biopsy have limitations. Colonoscopy…
Ultrasound is a non-invasive imaging modality that can be conveniently used to classify suspicious breast nodules and potentially detect the onset of breast cancer. Recently, Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) techniques have shown…
Objectives: Timely and accurate detection of colorectal polyps plays a crucial role in diagnosing and preventing colorectal cancer, a major cause of mortality worldwide. This study introduces a new, lightweight, and efficient framework for…
Fundus images are very useful in identifying various ophthalmic disorders. However, due to the presence of artifacts, the visibility of the retina is severely affected. This may result in misdiagnosis of the disorder which may lead to more…
Purpose: The research is to develop a novel CNN-based adversarial deep learning method to improve and expedite the multi-organ semantic segmentation of CT images, and to generate accurate contours on pelvic CT images. Methods: Planning CT…
Colorectal polyps are important precursors to colon cancer, the third most common cause of cancer mortality for both men and women. It is a disease where early detection is of crucial importance. Colonoscopy is commonly used for early…
Colorectal cancer is the third most aggressive cancer worldwide. Polyps, as the main biomarker of the disease, are detected, localized, and characterized through colonoscopy procedures. Nonetheless, during the examination, up to 25% of…
In the recent years, artificial intelligence (AI) and its leading subtypes, machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) and their applications are spreading very fast in various aspects such as medicine. Today the most important challenge…
Colorectal cancer is the fourth leading cause of cancer deaths worldwide and the second leading cause in the United States. The risk of colorectal cancer can be mitigated by the identification and removal of premalignant lesions through…
Colorectal cancer from the appearance of polyps that can be benign or malignant is one of the most fatal diseases in the world. To find these polyps in patients, colonoscopy is performed, which is a very efficient technique in this case.…
