• Abstract: Gait analysis is an important aspect of clinical investigation for detecting neurological and musculoskeletal disorders and assessing the global health of a patient. In this paper we propose to focus our attention on extracting relevant curvature information from the body surface provided by a depth camera. We assumed that the 3D mesh was made available in a previous step and demonstrated how curvature maps could be useful to assess asymmetric anomalies with two simple simulated abnormal gaits compared with a normal one. This research set the grounds for the future development of a curvature-based gait analysis system for healthcare professionals.

  This study introduces a novel approach leveraging the inherent symmetrical anatomical features of the human brain to enhance the subsequent detection and segmentation analysis for brain diseases. A novel Symmetry-Aware Cross-Attention (SACA) module is proposed to encode symmetrical features of left and right hemispheres, and a proxy task to detect symmetrical features as the Symmetry-Aware Head (SAH) is proposed. Our findings advocate for the effectiveness of incorporating symmetry awareness into pretraining and set a new benchmark for medical imaging analysis, promising significant strides toward accurate and efficient diagnostic processes.

  We develop a generalist segmentation model that combines anatomical and pathological information, aiming to enhance the segmentation accuracy of pathological features. Our Anatomy-Pathology Exchange (APEx) training utilizes a query-based segmentation transformer which decodes a joint feature space into query-representations for human anatomy. In doing so, we are able to report the best results across the board on FDG-PET-CT and Chest X-Ray pathology segmentation tasks with a margin of up to 3.3% as compared to strong baseline methods.

  We perform a quantitative analysis of a self-supervised approach for sinus reconstruction using endoscopic sequences and optical tracking. Our results show that the generated reconstructions are in high agreement with the anatomy, yielding an average point-to-mesh error of 0.91 mm. We identify that pose and depth estimation inaccuracies contribute equally to this error and that locally consistent sequences with shorter trajectories generate more accurate reconstructions.

  Photoacoustic tomography (PAT) is a novel imaging technique that can resolve both morphological and functional tissue properties.

We present a novel approach to 3D reconstruction of PAT data that does not require an external tracking system.
