This study focuses on overcoming challenges in classifying eye diseases using color fundus photographs by leveraging deep learning techniques, aiming to enhance early detection and diagnosis accuracy. We utilized a dataset of 6392 across eight disease categories, which was later augmented 17,766 images. Five well-known convolutional neural networks (CNNs)-efficientnetb0, mobilenetv2, shufflenet, resnet50, resnet101-and custom-built CNN were integrated trained this dataset. Image sizes...
Abstract Convolutional deep learning models have shown comparable performance to radiologists in detecting and classifying thoracic diseases. However, research on rib fractures remains limited compared other abnormalities. Moreover, existing primarily focus using frontal chest X‐ray (CXR) images. To address these gaps, the authors utilised EDARib‐CXR dataset, comprising 369 829 oblique CXRs. These X‐rays were annotated by experienced radiologists, specifically identifying presence of...
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a common and severe neurological disorder associated with high morbidity mortality rates. Despite extensive research into its pathology, there are no clinically approved neuroprotective treatments for ICH. Increasing evidence has revealed that inflammatory responses mediate the pathophysiological processes of brain injury following Experimental ICH was induced by direct infusion 100 μL fresh (non-heparinized) autologous whole blood right basal ganglia...
Coronary artery disease (CAD) remains the leading cause of death worldwide. Currently, cardiac multi-detector computed tomography (MDCT) is widely used to diagnose CAD. The purpose in this study identify informative and useful predictors from left ventricular (LV) early CAD patients using MDCT images.Study groups comprised 42 subjects who underwent a screening health examination, including laboratory testing angiography by 64-slice angiography. Two geometrical characteristics one image...
Dental panoramic imaging plays a pivotal role in dentistry for diagnosis and treatment planning. However, correctly positioning patients can be challenging technicians due to the complexity of equipment variations patient anatomy, leading errors. These errors compromise image quality potentially result misdiagnoses.This research aims develop validate deep learning model capable accurately efficiently identifying multiple dental imaging.This retrospective study used 552 images selected from...
