Cardiovascular disease (CVD) accounts for about half of non-communicable diseases. Vessel stenosis in the coronary artery is considered to be the major risk of CVD. Computed tomography angiography (CTA) is one of the widely used noninvasive…

Anatomical segmentation of organs in ultrasound images is essential to many clinical applications, particularly for diagnosis and monitoring. Existing deep neural networks require a large amount of labeled data for training in order to…

Despite the considerable progress in automatic abdominal multi-organ segmentation from CT/MRI scans in recent years, a comprehensive evaluation of the models' capabilities is hampered by the lack of a large-scale benchmark from diverse…

Automated abdominal multi-organ segmentation is a crucial yet challenging task in the computer-aided diagnosis of abdominal organ-related diseases. Although numerous deep learning models have achieved remarkable success in many medical…

Existing methods to reconstruct vascular structures from a computed tomography (CT) angiogram rely on injection of intravenous contrast to enhance the radio-density within the vessel lumen. However, pathological changes can be present in…

Accurate segmentation of lesions in pancreatic endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) images is crucial for effective diagnosis and treatment. However, the collection of enough crisp EUS images for effective diagnosis is arduous. Recently, domain…

Medical image analysis tasks often focus on regions or structures located in a particular location within the patient's body. Often large parts of the image may not be of interest for the image analysis task. When using deep-learning based…

Intracranial aneurysms (IAs) are abnormal dilations of cerebral blood vessels that, if ruptured, can lead to life-threatening consequences. However, their small size and soft contrast in radiological scans often make it difficult to perform…

The objective of this study is to develop a deep-learning based detection and diagnosis technique for carotid atherosclerosis using a portable freehand 3D ultrasound (US) imaging system. A total of 127 3D carotid artery scans were acquired…

Objective: Ultrasound (US) examination has unique advantages in diagnosing carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) while identifying the median nerve (MN) and diagnosing CTS depends heavily on the expertise of examiners. To alleviate this problem, we…

Vessel stenosis is a major risk factor in cardiovascular diseases (CVD). To analyze the degree of vessel stenosis for supporting the treatment management, extraction of coronary artery area from Computed Tomographic Angiography (CTA) is…

Pathological alterations in the human vascular system underlie many chronic diseases, such as atherosclerosis and aneurysms. However, manually analyzing diagnostic images of the vascular system, such as computed tomographic angiograms…

Accurate delineation of anatomical structures in volumetric CT scans is crucial for diagnosis and treatment planning. While AI has advanced automated segmentation, current approaches typically target individual structures, creating a…

The precise segmentation of intracranial aneurysms and their parent vessels (IA-Vessel) is a critical step for hemodynamic analyses, which mainly depends on computational fluid dynamics (CFD). However, current segmentation methods…

The accurate and timely diagnosis of acute aortic syndromes (AAS) in patients presenting with acute chest pain remains a clinical challenge. Aortic CT angiography (CTA) is the imaging protocol of choice in patients with suspected AAS.…

An abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a life-threatening condition characterized by the irreversible dilation of the lower aorta, usually detected incidentally during imaging for other health issues. Current clinical practice for managing…

Coronary CT angiography (CCTA) and intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) provide complementary information for coronary artery disease assessment, making their registration valuable for comprehensive analysis. However, existing registration…

This article presents a dataset used in the article "Kinematics of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms", published in the Journal of Biomechanics. The dataset is publicly available for download from the Zenodo data repository…

Morphological analysis and identification of pathologies in the aorta are important for cardiovascular diagnosis and risk assessment in patients. Manual annotation is time-consuming and cumbersome in CT scans acquired without contrast…

Chest computed tomography (CT) is central to the detection and management of thoracic disease, yet the growing scale and complexity of volumetric imaging increasingly exceed what can be addressed by scan-level prediction alone. Clinically…
