This work explores the use of computer vision for image segmentation and classification of medical fluid samples in transparent containers (for example, tubes, syringes, infusion bags). Handling fluids such as infusion fluids, blood, and…
Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) imaging allows direct visualization of the coronary vessel wall and is suitable for the assessment of atherosclerosis and the degree of stenosis. Accurate segmentation and measurements of lumen and…
Segmenting the retinal vasculature entails a trade-off between how much of the overall vascular structure we identify vs. how precisely we segment individual vessels. In particular, state-of-the-art methods tend to under-segment faint…
Vascular segmentation extracts blood vessels from images and serves as the basis for diagnosing various diseases, like ophthalmic diseases. Ophthalmologists often require high-resolution segmentation results for analysis, which leads to…
Background: Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is increasingly used to assess blood flow conditions in patients with congenital heart disease (CHD). This requires patient-specific anatomy, usually obtained from segmented 3D cardiovascular…
This short paper briefly presents our methodology details of automatic intracranial aneurysms segmentation from brain MR scans. We use ensembles of multiple models trained from different loss functions. Our method ranked first place in the…
Vessel segmentation is widely used to help with vascular disease diagnosis. Vessels reconstructed using existing methods are often not sufficiently accurate to meet clinical use standards. This is because 3D vessel structures are highly…
Purpose Automated segmentation of anatomical structures in medical image analysis is a prerequisite for autonomous diagnosis as well as various computer and robot aided interventions. Recent methods based on deep convolutional neural…
Traumatic brain injuries could cause intracranial hemorrhage (ICH). ICH could lead to disability or death if it is not accurately diagnosed and treated in a time-sensitive procedure. The current clinical protocol to diagnose ICH is…
Blood vessels of the brain provide the human brain with the required nutrients and oxygen. As a vulnerable part of the cerebral blood supply, pathology of small vessels can cause serious problems such as Cerebral Small Vessel Diseases…
Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) is the preferred modality for capturing real-time and high resolution cross-sectional images of the coronary arteries, and evaluating the stenosis. Accurate and real-time segmentation of IVUS images involves…
Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a vascular disease in which a section of the aorta enlarges, weakening its walls and potentially rupturing the vessel. Abdominal ultrasound has been utilized for diagnostics, but due to its limited image…
Typical approaches to patient-specific hemodynamic studies of cerebral aneurysms use image based computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and seek to statistically correlate parameters such as wall shear stress (WSS) and oscillatory shear index…
Background and Objective: Biometric measurements of fetal head are important indicators for maternal and fetal health monitoring during pregnancy. 3D ultrasound (US) has unique advantages over 2D scan in covering the whole fetal head and…
Whole brain segmentation with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) enables the non-invasive measurement of brain regions, including total intracranial volume (TICV) and posterior fossa volume (PFV). Enhancing the existing whole brain…
