Accurate multi-organ segmentation in abdominal CT scans is essential for computer-aided diagnosis and treatment. While convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have long been the standard approach in medical image segmentation,…
Background: By a new concept called "phase diagram", we compare two commonly used genotype-based tests for case-control genetic analysis, one is a Cochran-Armitage trend test (CAT test at $x=0.5$, or CAT0.5) and another (called MAX2) is the…
The rapidly emerging field of deep learning-based computational pathology has shown promising results in utilizing whole slide images (WSIs) to objectively prognosticate cancer patients. However, most prognostic methods are currently…
Early detection of cancer and cardiovascular diseases is fundamental to improving patient outcomes and reducing healthcare expenditure. Current cancer screening programs are targeted towards specific cancers and are often inaccessible to…
Purpose: Identifying intravenous (IV) contrast use within CT scans is a key component of data curation for model development and testing. Currently, IV contrast is poorly documented in imaging metadata and necessitates manual correction and…
Prognostication for comatose post-cardiac arrest patients is a critical challenge that directly impacts clinical decision-making in the ICU. Clinical information that informs prognostication is collected serially over time. Shortly after…
Versatile medical image segmentation (VMIS) targets the segmentation of multiple classes, while obtaining full annotations for all classes is often impractical due to the time and labor required. Leveraging partially labeled datasets (PLDs)…
Background: While intravascular imaging, particularly optical coherence tomography (OCT), improves percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) outcomes, its interpretation is operator-dependent. General-purpose artificial intelligence (AI)…
Numerous oncology indications have extensively quantified metabolically active tumors using positron emission tomography (PET) and computed tomography (CT). F-fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) is frequently utilized…
Purpose: The distribution of visceral adipose tissue (VAT) in cystectomy patients is indicative of the incidence of post-operative complications. Existing VAT segmentation methods for computed tomography (CT) employing intensity…
Citrus, as one of the most economically important fruit crops globally, suffers severe yield depressions due to various diseases. Accurate disease detection and classification serve as critical prerequisites for implementing targeted…
Multi-organ segmentation in whole-body computed tomography (CT) is a constant pre-processing step which finds its application in organ-specific image retrieval, radiotherapy planning, and interventional image analysis. We address this…
Many lung diseases require detailed visualisation for accurate diagnosis and treatment. High-resolution computed tomography (CT) is the gold-standard technique for non-invasive lung disease detection, but it presents a risk to the patient…
Different CT segmentation datasets are typically obtained from different scanners under different capture settings and often provide segmentation labels for a limited and often disjoint set of organs. Using these heterogeneous data…
Coronary CT angiography (CCTA) has established its role as a non-invasive modality for the diagnosis of coronary artery disease (CAD). The CAD-Reporting and Data System (CAD-RADS) has been developed to standardize communication and aid in…
Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is one of the widespread Chronic diseases with no known ultimo cure and high morbidity. Research demonstrates that progressive Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a heterogeneous disorder that significantly impacts…
Inter reader variability and cross site domain shift challenge the automatic segmentation of prostate anatomy using T2 weighted MRI images. This study investigates whether transformer models can retain precision amid such heterogeneity. We…
Chest X-rays have been widely used for COVID-19 screening; however, 3D computed tomography (CT) is a more effective modality. We present our findings on COVID-19 severity prediction from chest CT scans using the STOIC dataset. We developed…
In this work, we address the challenge of binary lung nodule classification (benign vs malignant) using CT images by proposing a multi-level attention stacked ensemble of deep neural networks. Three pretrained backbones -- EfficientNet V2…
Multi-phase computed tomography (CT) scans use contrast agents to highlight different anatomical structures within the body to improve the probability of identifying and detecting anatomical structures of interest and abnormalities such as…
