Automated detection of curvilinear structures, e.g., blood vessels or nerve fibres, from medical and biomedical images is a crucial early step in automatic image interpretation associated to the management of many diseases. Precise…

Accurate segmentation of kidneys and kidney tumors is an essential step for radiomic analysis as well as developing advanced surgical planning techniques. In clinical analysis, the segmentation is currently performed by clinicians from the…

A brain tumor, whether benign or malignant, can potentially be life threatening and requires painstaking efforts in order to identify the type, origin and location, let alone cure one. Manual segmentation by medical specialists can be…

Cancer is an abnormal growth with potential to invade locally and metastasize to distant organs. Accurate auto-segmentation of the tumor and surrounding normal tissues is required for radiotherapy treatment plan optimization. Recent…

Automatic segmentation of organs-at-risk (OAR) in computed tomography (CT) is an essential part of planning effective treatment strategies to combat lung and esophageal cancer. Accurate segmentation of organs surrounding tumours helps…

Liver tumor segmentation in CT images is a critical step in the diagnosis, surgical planning and postoperative evaluation of liver disease. An automatic liver and tumor segmentation method can greatly relieve physicians of the heavy…

Pancreas segmentation in computed tomography imaging has been historically difficult for automated methods because of the large shape and size variations between patients. In this work, we describe a custom-build 3D fully convolutional…

Automated slice classification is clinically relevant since it can be incorporated into medical image segmentation workflows as a preprocessing step that would flag slices with a higher probability of containing tumors, thereby directing…

The diagnosis and segmentation of tumors using any medical diagnostic tool can be challenging due to the varying nature of this pathology. Magnetic Reso- nance Imaging (MRI) is an established diagnostic tool for various diseases and…

Automatic organ segmentation is an important yet challenging problem for medical image analysis. The pancreas is an abdominal organ with very high anatomical variability. This inhibits previous segmentation methods from achieving high…

Accurate delineation of kidney tumours in Computed Tomography (CT) is essential for downstream quantitative analysis and precision oncology, but manual segmentation is a specialised task, time-consuming and difficult to scale. Automated 3D…

Lung cancer is a leading cause of death in most countries of the world. Since prompt diagnosis of tumors can allow oncologists to discern their nature, type and the mode of treatment, tumor detection and segmentation from CT Scan images is…

In this paper, we propose an automatic brain tumor segmentation approach (e.g., PixelNet) using a pixel-level convolutional neural network (CNN). The model extracts feature from multiple convolutional layers and concatenate them to form a…

This paper addresses the task of nuclei segmentation in high-resolution histopathological images. We propose an auto- matic end-to-end deep neural network algorithm for segmenta- tion of individual nuclei. A nucleus-boundary model is…

Deep learning algorithms have accounted for the rapid acceleration of research in artificial intelligence in medical image analysis, interpretation, and segmentation with many potential applications across various sub disciplines in…

MRI analysis takes central position in brain tumor diagnosis and treatment, thus it's precise evaluation is crucially important. However, it's 3D nature imposes several challenges, so the analysis is often performed on 2D projections that…

Variational Level Set (VLS) has been a widely used method in medical segmentation. However, segmentation accuracy in the VLS method dramatically decreases when dealing with intervening factors such as lighting, shadows, colors, etc.…

Automatic liver segmentation from CT volumes is a crucial prerequisite yet challenging task for computer-aided hepatic disease diagnosis and treatment. In this paper, we present a novel 3D deeply supervised network (3D DSN) to address this…

The work presented in this paper is to propose a reliable high-quality system of Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) for brain tumor segmentation with a low computation requirement. The system consists of a CNN for the main processing for…

Automatic extraction of liver and tumor from CT volumes is a challenging task due to their heterogeneous and diffusive shapes. Recently, 2D and 3D deep convolutional neural networks have become popular in medical image segmentation tasks…
