Clinicians compare breast DCE-MRI after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) with pre-treatment scans to evaluate the response to NAC. Clinical evidence supports that accurate longitudinal deformable registration without deforming treated tumor…

Style transfer in DCE-MRI is a challenging task due to large variations in contrast enhancements across different tissues and time. Current unsupervised methods fail due to the wide variety of contrast enhancement and motion between the…

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…

Accurate segmentation of laryngo-pharyngeal tumors is crucial for precise diagnosis and effective treatment planning. However, traditional single-modality imaging methods often fall short of capturing the complex anatomical and pathological…

Breast ultrasound imaging is a valuable tool for early breast cancer detection, but automated tumor segmentation is challenging due to inherent noise, variations in scale of lesions, and fuzzy boundaries. To address these challenges, we…

Dynamic Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a crucial non-invasive method used to capture the movement of internal organs and tissues, making it a key tool for medical diagnosis. However, dynamic MRI faces a major challenge: long…

Near infrared diffuse optical tomography (DOT) provides an imaging modality for the oxygenation of tissue. In this paper, we propose a novel machine learning algorithm based on time-domain radiative transfer equation. We use temporal…

Dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) is used to study microvascular structure and tissue perfusion. In DCE-MRI a bolus of gadolinium based contrast agent is injected into the blood stream and spatiotemporal changes…

Most of the current state-of-the-art methods for tumor segmentation are based on machine learning models trained on manually segmented images. This type of training data is particularly costly, as manual delineation of tumors is not only…

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…

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…

Early assessment of tumor therapeutic response is an important topic in precision medicine to optimize personalized treatment regimens and reduce unnecessary toxicity, cost, and delay. Although diffusion MRI (dMRI) has shown potential to…

Accurate tumor segmentation is crucial for cancer diagnosis and treatment. While foundation models have advanced general-purpose segmentation, existing methods still struggle with: (1) limited incorporation of medical priors, (2) imbalance…

Dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMRI) is a widely used modality for diagnosing myocardial blood flow (perfusion) abnormalities. During a typical free-breathing DCE-CMRI scan, close to 300 time-resolved…

In the quantitative analysis of Dynamic Contrast-Enhanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging (DCE-MRI) compartment models allow to describe the uptake of contrast medium with biological meaningful kinetic parameters. As simple models often fail to…

Tumor vascularity detection and quantification are of high relevance in the assessment of cancer lesions not only for disease diagnostics but for therapy considerations and monitoring. The present work addressed the quantification of…

In this paper we present a method for simultaneously segmenting brain tumors and an extensive set of organs-at-risk for radiation therapy planning of glioblastomas. The method combines a contrast-adaptive generative model for whole-brain…

Automatic brain tumor segmentation plays an important role for diagnosis, surgical planning and treatment assessment of brain tumors. Deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have been widely used for this task. Due to the relatively small…

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) provides varying tissue contrast images of internal organs based on a strong magnetic field. Despite the non-invasive advantage of MRI in frequent imaging, the low contrast MR images in the target area make…
