Accurate carotid plaque grading (CPG) is vital to assess the risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Due to the small size and high intra-class variability of plaque, CPG is commonly evaluated using a combination of transverse…

Improved surgical skill is generally associated with improved patient outcomes, although assessment is subjective; labour-intensive; and requires domain specific expertise. Automated data driven metrics can alleviate these difficulties, as…

This paper presents a novel deep learning enabled, video based analysis framework for assessing the Unified Parkinsons Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) that can be used in the clinic or at home. We report results from comparing the performance…

Extensive studies suggested that fluid mechanical markers of intracranial aneurysms (IAs) derived from Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) can indicate disease progression risks, but to date this has not been translated clinically. This is…

Cuffless blood pressure screening based on easily acquired photoplethysmography (PPG) signals offers a practical pathway toward scalable cardiovascular health assessment. Despite rapid progress, existing PPG-based blood pressure estimation…

Intracranial aneurysms remain a major cause of neurological morbidity and mortality worldwide, where rupture risk is tightly coupled to local hemodynamics particularly wall shear stress and oscillatory shear index. Conventional…

Early diagnosis and intervention are clinically considered the paramount part of treating cerebral palsy (CP), so it is essential to design an efficient and interpretable automatic prediction system for CP. We highlight a significant…

Background: Parkinson's disease (PD) is a prevalent long-term neurodegenerative disease. Though the diagnostic criteria of PD are relatively well defined, the current medical imaging diagnostic procedures are expertise-demanding, and thus…

Intrathecal (IT) injection is an effective way to deliver drugs to the brain bypassing the blood-brain barrier. To evaluate and optimize IT drug delivery, it is necessary to understand the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) dynamics in the central…

Invasive Coronary Angiography (ICA) is the clinical gold standard for the assessment of coronary artery disease. However, its interpretation remains subjective and prone to intra- and inter-operator variability. In this work, we introduce…

Purpose. Early squamous cell neoplasia (ESCN) in the oesophagus is a highly treatable condition. Lesions confined to the mucosal layer can be curatively treated endoscopically. We build a computer-assisted detection (CADe) system that can…

Owing to the recent advancements in wearable devices for health care, the importance of BP estimation without cuffs increases. Cuff technologies are inappropriate for continuous BP measurement due to their inconvenient usage, invasive…

The fetal cortical plate (CP) undergoes drastic morphological changes during the in utero development. Therefore, CP growth and folding patterns are key indicator in the assessment of the brain development and maturation. Magnetic resonance…

Chronic pancreatitis (CP) is a progressive inflammatory disease frequently associated with severe, treatment-resistant abdominal pain, which is hypothesized to result from pancreatic ductal hypertension (PDH) secondary to ductal strictures…

Intracranial aneurysms (IAs) are serious cerebrovascular lesions found in approximately 5\% of the general population. Their rupture may lead to high mortality. Current methods for assessing IA risk focus on morphological and…

In mobile robotics, scan matching of point clouds using Iterative Closest Point (ICP) allows estimating sensor displacements. It may prove important to assess the associated uncertainty about the obtained rigid transformation, especially…

Clinically significant portal hypertension (CSPH) is a severe complication of chronic liver disease associated with cirrhosis, which is diagnosed by the measurement of hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG). However, HVPG measurement is…

We present DeepICP - a novel end-to-end learning-based 3D point cloud registration framework that achieves comparable registration accuracy to prior state-of-the-art geometric methods. Different from other keypoint based methods where a…

Reliable pose estimation in previously unseen environments is a fundamental capability of autonomous systems. Existing LiDAR odometry methods typically employ point-, surfel-, or NDT-based map representations, which are distinct from the…

More than 10 million coronary angiograms are performed globally each year, providing a gold standard for detecting obstructive coronary artery disease. Yet, no obstructive lesions are identified in 70% of patients evaluated for ischemic…
