• Abstract: Acute aortic syndrome (AAS) is a group of life threatening conditions of the aorta. We have developed an end-to-end automatic approach to detect AAS in computed tomography (CT) images. Our approach consists of two steps. At first, we extract N cross sections along the segmented aorta centerline for each CT scan. These cross sections are stacked together to form a new volume which is then classified using two different classifiers, a 3D convolutional neural network (3D CNN) and a multiple instance learning (MIL). We trained, validated, and compared two models on 2291 contrast CT volumes. We tested on a set aside cohort of 230 normal and 50 positive CT volumes. Our models detected AAS with an Area under Receiver Operating Characteristic curve (AUC) of 0.965 and 0.985 using 3DCNN and MIL, respectively.

  Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging and computed tomography (CT) are two common non-invasive imaging methods for assessing patients with cardiovascular disease. CMR typically acquires multiple sparse 2D slices, with unavoidable respiratory motion artefacts between slices, whereas CT acquires isotropic dense data but uses ionising radiation. We explore the combination of Slice Shifting Algorithm (SSA), Spatial Transformer Network (STN), and Label Transformer Network (LTN) to: 1) correct respiratory motion between segmented slices, and 2) transform sparse segmentation data into dense segmentation.

  Automated detecting lung infections from computed tomography (CT) data plays an important role for combating COVID-19. Most current COVID-19 infection segmentation methods mainly relied on 2D CT images, which lack 3D sequential constraint. Existing 3D CT segmentation methods focus on single-scale representations, which do not achieve the multiple level receptive field sizes on 3D volume.

  Transcranial focused ultrasound (tFUS) is a therapeutic ultrasound method that focuses sound through the skull to a small region noninvasively and often under MRI guidance. CT imaging is used to estimate the acoustic properties that vary between individual skulls to enable effective focusing during tFUS procedures. Here, we synthesized CT images from routinely acquired T1-weighted MRI by using a 3D patch-based conditional generative adversarial network (cGAN) We compared the performance of sCT to real CT (rCT) images for tFUS planning using Kranion and simulations using the acoustic toolbox,

  A large training data set is required for a standard deep learning-based model to learn this strategy from data. We propose an augmentation method that generates artificial training samples by recombining vessel tree segmentations of the hemispheres from different patients. In line with the augmentation scheme, we use a 3D-DenseNet fed with task-specific input, fostering a side-by-side comparison between the hemispheres.

  We developed a deep learning algorithm to identify major tissue structures of the optic nerve head (ONH) in 3D optical coherence tomography ( OCT) scans. A classification algorithm was designed using 150 OCT volumes to perform 3-class classifications (1: ODD, 2: papilledema, 3: healthy) strictly from their drusen and prelamina swelling scores. Our AI approach accurately discriminated ODD from papilledema, using a single OCT scan.
