• Abstract: Medical imaging is an important tool for the diagnosis and the evaluation of an aortic dissection (AD); a serious condition of the aorta, which could lead to a life-threatening aortic rupture. AD patients need life-long medical monitoring of the aortic enlargement and of the disease progression, subsequent to the diagnosis of the aortic dissection. Since there is a lack of 'healthy-dissected' image pairs from medical studies, the application of inpainting techniques offers an alternative source for generating them by doing a virtual regression from dissected aortae to healthy aortae; an indirect way to study the origin of the disease. The proposed inpainting tool combines a neural network, which was trained on the task of inpainting aortic dissections, with an easy-to-use user interface. To achieve this goal, the inpainting tool has been integrated within the 3D medical image viewer of StudierFenster (www.studierfenster.at). By designing the tool as a web application, we simplify the usage of the neural network and reduce the initial learning curve.

  The scarcity of publicly available medical images has led contemporary algorithms to depend on pretrained models grounded on a large set of natural images. A significant em domain discrepancy exists between natural and medical images, which causes AI models to exhibit heightened em vulnerability to adversarial attacks. This paper proposes a em domain assimilation approach that introduces texture and color adaptation into transfer learning, followed by a texture preservation component to suppress undesired distortion.

  Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP) is an eye disorder primarily affecting premature infants with lower weights. It causes proliferation of vessels in the retina and could result in vision loss and, eventually, retinal detachment, leading to blindness. In recent years, there has been a significant effort to automate the diagnosis using deep learning. This paper builds upon the success of previous models and develops a novel architecture, which combines object segmentation and convolutional neural networks (CNN) Our proposed system first trains an object segmentation model to identify the demarcation line at a pixel level and adds the resulting mask as an additional "color" channel in
