Intrafraction motion can play a pivotal role in the success of abdominal and thoracic radiation therapy. Hybrid magnetic resonance-guided radiotherapy systems have the potential to control for intrafraction motion. Recently, we introduced…

Purpose: The presence of respiratory motion during radiation treatment leads to degradation of the expected dose distribution, both for target coverage and healthy-tissue sparing, particularly for techniques like pencil-beam scanning proton…

Introduction: Quantification of dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE)-MRI has the potential to provide valuable clinical information, but robust pharmacokinetic modeling remains a challenge for clinical adoption. Methods: A 7-layer neural network…

In medical imaging, most of the image registration methods implicitly assume a one-to-one correspondence between the source and target images (i.e., diffeomorphism). However, this is not necessarily the case when dealing with pathological…

Ventilator dyssynchrony (VD) is often described as a mismatch between a patient breathing effort and the ventilator support during mechanical ventilation. This mismatch is often associated with an increased risk of lung injury and longer…

The rapid advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in biomedical imaging and radiotherapy is hindered by the limited availability of large imaging data repositories. With recent research and improvements in denoising diffusion…

4D facial expression synthesizing is a critical problem in the fields of computer vision and graphics. Current methods lack flexibility and smoothness when simulating the inter-frame motion of expression sequences. In this paper, we propose…

While contrast-enhanced CT (CECT) is standard for assessing abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA), the required iodinated contrast agents pose significant risks, including nephrotoxicity, patient allergies, and environmental harm. To reduce…

Diffeomorphic deformable image registration ensures smooth invertible transformations across inspiratory and expiratory chest CT scans. Yet, in practice, deep learning-based diffeomorphic methods struggle to capture large deformations…

This study aims to automatically diagnose thoracic diseases depicted on the chest x-ray (CXR) images using deep convolutional neural networks. The existing methods generally used the entire CXR images for training purposes, but this…

The advent of computed tomography significantly improves patient health regarding diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment planning and verification. However, tomographic imaging escalates concomitant radiation doses to patients, inducing…

MR-only radiotherapy treatment planning requires accurate MR-to-CT synthesis. Current deep learning methods for MR-to-CT synthesis depend on pairwise aligned MR and CT training images of the same patient. However, misalignment between…

Deep-learning-based MR-to-CT synthesis can estimate the electron density of tissues, thereby facilitating PET attenuation correction in whole-body PET/MR imaging. However, whole-body MR-to-CT synthesis faces several challenges including the…

Automatic thin-prep cytologic test (TCT) screening can assist pathologists in finding cervical abnormality towards accurate and efficient cervical cancer diagnosis. Current automatic TCT screening systems mostly involve abnormal cervical…

Whole-body Positron Emission Tomography (PET) registration is essential for multi-parametric tumor characterization and assessment of metastatic disease progression. In deep learning-based deformable registration, the dense displacement…

While medical images such as computed tomography (CT) are stored in DICOM format in hospital PACS, it is still quite routine in many countries to print a film as a transferable medium for the purposes of self-storage and secondary…

A fully automated system for interpreting abdominal computed tomography (CT) scans with multiple phases of contrast enhancement requires an accurate classification of the phases. This work aims at developing and validating a precise, fast…

Deep learning in cardiac MRI (CMR) is fundamentally constrained by both data scarcity and privacy regulations. This study systematically benchmarks three generative architectures: Denoising Diffusion Probabilistic Models (DDPM), Latent…

In adaptive radiotherapy, deformable image registration is often conducted between the planning CT and treatment CT (or cone beam CT) to generate a deformation vector field (DVF) for dose accumulation and contour propagation. The auto…

This study aimed to propose a denoising method for dynamic contrast-enhanced computed tomography (DCE-CT) perfusion studies using a three-dimensional deep image prior (DIP), and to investigate its usefulness in comparison with total…
