Identifying individual tissues, so-called tissue segmentation, in diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) images is a challenging task and little work has been published, largely due to the limited availability of a clinical image dataset. To address…

Acute and chronic wounds are a challenge to healthcare systems around the world and affect many people's lives annually. Wound classification is a key step in wound diagnosis that would help clinicians to identify an optimal treatment…

Accurate skin lesion segmentation from dermoscopic images is of great importance for skin cancer diagnosis. However, automatic segmentation of melanoma remains a challenging task because it is difficult to incorporate useful texture…

Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have been the consensus for medical image segmentation tasks. However, they suffer from the limitation in modeling long-range dependencies and spatial correlations due to the nature of convolution…

This paper proposes a high-precision semantic segmentation method based on an improved TransUNet architecture to address the challenges of complex lesion structures, blurred boundaries, and significant scale variations in skin lesion…

Effective recognition of acute and difficult-to-heal wounds is a necessary step in wound diagnosis. An efficient classification model can help wound specialists classify wound types with less financial and time costs and also help in…

Diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) detection is a clinically significant yet challenging task due to the scarcity and variability of publicly available datasets. To solve these problems, we propose ConMatFormer, a new hybrid deep learning…

Wound classification is an essential step of wound diagnosis. An efficient classifier can assist wound specialists in classifying wound types with less financial and time costs and help them decide an optimal treatment procedure. This study…

Wounds, such as foot ulcers, pressure ulcers, leg ulcers, and infected wounds, come up with substantial problems for healthcare professionals. Prompt and accurate segmentation is crucial for effective treatment. However, contemporary…

Chronic wounds and associated complications present ever growing burdens for clinics and hospitals world wide. Venous, arterial, diabetic, and pressure wounds are becoming increasingly common globally. These conditions can result in highly…

Transformers have demonstrated remarkable performance in natural language processing and computer vision. However, existing vision Transformers struggle to learn from limited medical data and are unable to generalize on diverse medical…

The aging population poses numerous challenges to healthcare, including the increase in chronic wounds in the elderly. The current approach to wound assessment by therapists based on photographic documentation is subjective, highlighting…

Chronic wounds significantly impact quality of life. If not properly managed, they can severely deteriorate. Image-based wound analysis could aid in objectively assessing the wound status by quantifying important features that are related…

Wound image segmentation is a critical component for the clinical diagnosis and in-time treatment of wounds. Recently, deep learning has become the mainstream methodology for wound image segmentation. However, the pre-processing of the…

Automated segmentation of diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) plays a critical role in clinical diagnosis, therapeutic planning, and longitudinal wound monitoring. However, this task remains challenging due to the heterogeneous appearance,…

We introduce SurgFormer, a multiresolution gated transformer for data driven soft tissue simulation on volumetric meshes. High fidelity biomechanical solvers are often too costly for interactive use, so we train SurgFormer on solver…

Convolutional neural network (CNN) based methods have achieved great successes in medical image segmentation, but their capability to learn global representations is still limited due to using small effective receptive fields of convolution…

Multi-modal skin lesion diagnosis (MSLD) has achieved remarkable success by modern computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) technology based on deep convolutions. However, the information aggregation across modalities in MSLD remains challenging due…

Recently, deep learning-based tooth segmentation methods have been limited by the expensive and time-consuming processes of data collection and labeling. Achieving high-precision segmentation with limited datasets is critical. A viable…

Due to the lack of a definitive ground truth for the image fusion problem, the loss functions are structured based on evaluation metrics, such as the structural similarity index measure (SSIM). However, in doing so, a bias is introduced…
