Automatic segmentation is important for esophageal OCT image processing, which able to provide tissue characteristics such as shape and thickness disease diagnosis. Existing automatical methods based on deep convolutional networks may not generate accurate results due limited training set various layer shapes. This study proposed a novel adversarial network (ACN) segment images using trained by learning. The framework includes generator discriminator, both with U-Net alike fully...

Abstract Purpose To compare a deep learning model with radiomics in differentiating high-grade (LR-3, LR-4, LR-5) liver imaging reporting and data system (LI-RADS) tumors from low-grade (LR-1, LR-2) LI-RADS based on the contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance images. Methods Magnetic scans of 361 suspected hepatocellular carcinoma patients were retrospectively reviewed. Lesion volume segmentation was manually performed by two radiologists, resulting 426 lesions training set 83 test set. The...

Automatic segmentation of esophageal layers in OCT images is crucial for studying diseases and computer-assisted diagnosis. This work aims to improve the current techniques increase accuracy robustness image segmentation. A two-step edge-enhanced graph search (EEGS) framework proposed this study. Firstly, a preprocessing scheme applied suppress speckle noise remove disturbance structure. Secondly, formulated into layer boundaries are located by search. In process, we propose an weight matrix...

Pneumonia, a major infectious cause of morbidity and mortality among children worldwide, is typically diagnosed using low-dose pediatric chest X-ray [CXR (chest radiography)]. In CXR images, bone occlusion leads to risk missed diagnosis. Deep learning-based bone-suppression networks relying on training data have enabled considerable progress be achieved in suppression adult images; however, these poor generalizability images because the lack labeled (i.e., vs. soft-tissue images)....

Endoscopic optical coherence tomography (OCT) devices are capable of generating high-resolution images esophageal structures at high speed. To make the obtained data easy to interpret and reveal clinical significance, an automatic segmentation algorithm is needed. This work proposes a fast combining sparse Bayesian learning graph search (termed as SBGS) automatically identify six layer boundaries on OCT images. The SBGS first extracts features, including multi-scale gradients, averages Gabor...
