Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers among women worldwide, with early detection significantly increasing survival rates. Ultrasound imaging is a critical diagnostic tool that aids in early detection by providing real-time…
Breast cancer is the second most common type of cancer in women in Canada and the United States, representing over 25\% of all new female cancer cases. As such, there has been immense research and progress on improving screening and…
Accounting for 26% of all new cancer cases worldwide, breast cancer remains the most common form of cancer in women. Although early breast cancer has a favourable long-term prognosis, roughly a third of patients suffer from a suboptimal…
From the simple measurement of tissue attributes in pathology workflow to designing an explainable diagnostic/prognostic AI tool, access to accurate semantic segmentation of tissue regions in histology images is a prerequisite. However,…
Objective: This paper proposes a deep learning model for breast cancer detection from reconstructed images of microwave imaging scan data and aims to improve the accuracy and efficiency of breast tumor detection, which could have a…
Breast cancer is one of the most common and prevalent type of cancer that mainly affects the women population. chances of effective treatment increases with early diagnosis. Mammography is considered one of the effective and proven…
The objective of this paper is to significantly reduce the manual workload required from medical professionals in complex 3D segmentation tasks that cannot be yet fully automated. For instance, in radiotherapy planning, organs at risk must…
Conventional approaches to sound localization and separation are based on microphone arrays in artificial systems. Inspired by the selective perception of human auditory system, we design a multi-source listening system which can separate…
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…
Correctly assessing the malignancy of breast lesions identified during ultrasound examinations is crucial for effective clinical decision-making. However, the current "golden standard" relies on manual BI-RADS scoring by clinicians, often…
Pathologists routinely classify breast tumors according to recurring patterns of nuclear grades, cytoplasmic coloration, and large-scale morphological formations (i.e. streams of spindle cells, adenoid islands, etc.). The fact that there…
Early diagnosis of breast cancer is crucial, enabling the establishment of appropriate treatment plans and markedly enhancing patient prognosis. While direct magnetic resonance imaging-guided biopsy demonstrates promising performance in…
Automatic segmentation of brain tumors in intra-operative ultrasound (iUS) images could facilitate localization of tumor tissue during resection surgery. The lack of large annotated datasets limits the current models performances. In this…
Accurate patient positioning is critical for precise radiotherapy dose delivery, as positioning errors can significantly affect treatment outcomes. This study introduces a novel method for tracking loco-regional tissue deformation through…
The paper aims at proposing the first shape identification and classification algorithm in echolocation. The approach is based on first extracting geometric features from the reflected waves and then matching them with precomputed ones…
Brain tumors are a complex and potentially life-threatening medical condition that requires accurate diagnosis and timely treatment. In this paper, we present a machine learning-based system designed to assist healthcare professionals in…
We implemented a system able to locate people indoor, with the purpose of providing assistive services. Such approach is particularly important for the Art, for providing information on exhibitions, art galleries and museums, and to allow…
Mammography is a specific type of breast imaging that uses low-dose X-rays to detect cancer in early stage. During the exam, the women breast is compressed between two plates until a nearly uniform breast thickness is obtained. This…
The advancements in deep learning technologies have produced immense contributions to biomedical image analysis applications. With breast cancer being the common deadliest disease among women, early detection is the key means to improve…
Tumor shape plays a critical role in influencing both growth and metastasis. We introduce a novel topological radiomic feature derived from persistent homology to characterize tumor shape, focusing on its association with time-to-event…
