To perform a radiogenomic analysis of women with breast cancer to study the multiscale relationships among quantitative computer vision-extracted dynamic contrast material-enhanced (DCE) magnetic resonance (MR) imaging phenotypes, early metastasis, and long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) expression determined by means high-resolution next-generation sequencing.In this institutional review board-approved study, an automated image platform extracted 47 computational features from DCE MR data in...
Purpose To evaluate the potential of xenon ventilation computed tomography (CT) in quantitative and visual analysis chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Materials Methods This study was approved by institutional review board. After informed consent obtained, 32 patients with COPD underwent CT performed before administration xenon, two-phase wash-in (WI) wash-out (WO) periods, function testing (PFT). For analysis, results PFT were compared attenuation parameters from prexenon images...
OBJECTIVE To assess the feasibility of applying a deep learning-based denoising technique to coronary CT angiography (CCTA) along with iterative reconstruction for additional noise reduction. MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively enrolled 82 consecutive patients (male:female = 60:22; mean age, 67.0 ± 10.8 years) who had undergone both CCTA and invasive artery from March 2017 June 2018. All included underwent (ADMIRE level 3, Siemens Healthineers). developed learning based (ClariCT.AI,...
Purpose: Reducing the patient dose while maintaining diagnostic image quality during CT exams is subject of a growing number studies, in which simulations reduced-dose with data have been used as an effective technique when exploring potential various reduction techniques. Difficulties accessing raw sinogram data, however, restricted use this to limited institutions. Here, we present novel simulation provides realistic low-dose images without requirement data. Methods: Two key...
Objective: This study evaluated the applicability of classical method, height loss ratio (HLR), for identifying major acute compression fractures in clinical practice and compared its performance with deep learning (DL)-based VCF detection methods. Additionally, it examined whether combining HLR DL approaches could enhance performance, exploring potential integration methodologies. Methods: End-to-End Detection (EEVD), Two-Stage Segmentation (TSVD_SD), Classification (TSVD_DC). The models...
Recent advancements in deep learning have significantly improved medical image segmentation. However, the generalization performance and potential risks of data-driven models remain insufficiently validated. Specifically, unrealistic segmentation predictions deviating from actual anatomical structures, known as a Seg-Hallucination, often occur learning-based models. The Seg-Hallucinations can result erroneous quantitative analyses distort critical imaging biomarker information, yet effective...
Correct pulmonary nodule volumetry and categorization is paramount for accurate diagnosis in lung cancer screening programs. CT scanners with slice thicknesses of multiple millimetres are still common worldwide, thickness has an adverse effect on the accuracy volumetry. We propose a deep learning based super-resolution technique to generate thin-slice images from thick-slice images. Analysis was performed using commercially available AI-based software. The increased 72.7 percent 94.5 when...
The purpose of this study was to develop an automated scheme facilitate detection localized ground-glass opacity (GGO) in the lung at computed tomography (CT). Institutional review board approval and informed consent were not required. Two radiologists reviewed CT images from 14 patients (five men, nine women) who had cancer or metastasis whose malignancy classified as GGO. region sampled completely covered with contiguous, 50% overlapping regions interest (ROIs) measuring 30 × pixels size....
PURPOSE: To retrospectively compare performance of artificial neural networks (ANNs) applied to ultrasonographic (US) images with that radiologists for prediction appropriateness a donor liver respect macrosteatosis before transplantation. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Institutional ethics committee approved study; written informed consent was obtained. ANNs, constructed three-layered 15-neuron back-propagation algorithm, were trained predict by using statistically significant laboratory and US...
Purpose: Analyzing spatiotemporal enhancement patterns is an important task for the differential diagnosis of breast tumors in dynamic contrast‐enhanced MRI (DCE‐MRI), and yet remains challenging because complexities analyzing time‐series three‐dimensional image data. The authors propose a novel approach to computer‐aided (CAD) using multilevel analysis association features tumor DCE‐MRI. Methods: A database 171 cases consisting 111 malignant 60 benign was used. Time‐series MR images were...
