In this paper we propose a method for predicting the status of MGMT promoter methylation in high-grade gliomas. From the available MR images, we segment the tumor using deep convolutional neural networks and extract both radiomic features…
Objective: Hydrocephalus is a medical condition in which there is an abnormal accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in the brain. Segmentation of brain imagery into brain tissue and CSF (before and after surgery, i.e. pre-op vs. postop)…
Brain tumor segmentation is a critical task for patient's disease management. In order to automate and standardize this task, we trained multiple U-net like neural networks, mainly with deep supervision and stochastic weight averaging, on…
In the past few years, deep learning (DL) models have drawn great attention and shown superior performance on brain tumor and subregion segmentation tasks. However, the success is limited to segmentation of adult gliomas, where sufficient…
Radiomic models have been shown to outperform clinical data for outcome prediction in glioblastoma (GBM). However, clinical implementation is limited by lack of parameters standardization. We aimed to compare nine machine learning…
Advances in anticancer therapies have significantly contributed to declining death rates in certain disease and clinical settings. However, they have also made it difficult to power a clinical trial in these settings with overall survival…
Brain tumor is a life-threatening problem and hampers the normal functioning of the human body. The average five-year relative survival rate for malignant brain tumors is 35.6 percent. For proper diagnosis and efficient treatment planning,…
Purpose: Automated medical image-based prediction of clinical outcomes, such as overall survival (OS), has great potential in improving patient prognostics and personalized treatment planning. We developed a deep regression framework using…
The potential for augmenting the segmentation of brain tumors through the use of few-shot learning is vast. Although several deep learning networks (DNNs) demonstrate promising results in terms of segmentation, they require a substantial…
Glioblastoma Multiforme is a very aggressive type of brain tumor. Due to spatial and temporal intra-tissue inhomogeneity, location and the extent of the cancer tissue, it is difficult to detect and dissect the tumor regions. In this paper,…
Despite continuous advancements in cancer treatment, brain metastatic disease remains a significant complication of primary cancer and is associated with an unfavorable prognosis. One approach for improving diagnosis, management, and…
Glioblastoma Multiforme is a high grade, very aggressive, brain tumor, with patients having a poor prognosis. Lower grade gliomas are less aggressive, but they can evolve into higher grade tumors over time. Patient management and treatment…
Background: This study aimed to predict lesion-specific outcomes after stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT) in patients with brain metastases from malignant melanoma (MBM), using clinical, dosimetric, and pretherapeutic MRI data. Methods: In…
Gliomas are among the most aggressive and deadly brain tumors. This paper details the proposed Deep Neural Network architecture for brain tumor segmentation from Magnetic Resonance Images. The architecture consists of a cascade of three…
Automatic segmentation of brain glioma from multimodal MRI scans plays a key role in clinical trials and practice. Unfortunately, manual segmentation is very challenging, time-consuming, costly, and often inaccurate despite human expertise…
A myriad of algorithms for the automatic analysis of brain MR images is available to support clinicians in their decision-making. For brain tumor patients, the image acquisition time series typically starts with an already pathological…
Head and neck tumors and metastatic lymph nodes are crucial for treatment planning and prognostic analysis. Accurate segmentation and quantitative analysis of these structures require pixel-level annotation, making automated segmentation…
Stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT) is one of the most important treatment for patients with brain metastases (BM). Conventionally, following SRT patients are monitored by serial imaging and receive salvage treatments in case of significant…
Gliomas appear with wide variation in their characteristics both in terms of their appearance and location on brain MR images, which makes robust tumour segmentation highly challenging, and leads to high inter-rater variability even in…
Brain tumor is one of the leading causes of cancer death. The high-grade brain tumors are easier to recurrent even after standard treatment. Therefore, developing a method to predict brain tumor recurrence location plays an important role…
