BACKGROUND: Although radiological pneumonia is used as an outcome measure in epidemiological studies, there is considerable variability in the interpretation of chest radiographs. A standardized method for identifying radiological pneumonia would facilitate comparison of the results of vaccine trial...

Highlights • A 22-layer CNN architecture, which has achieved an accuracy of 99.1% for 2 class classification, 94.2% for 3 class classification, and 91.2% for 4 class classification. To the best of our knowledge, the accuracy of our proposed CoroDet method is higher than the state-of-the-art method f...

Neuroimaging, in particular magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), has been playing an important role in understanding brain functionalities and its disorders during the last couple of decades. These cutting-edge MRI scans, supported by high-performance computational tools and novel ML techniques, have o...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The purposes of this study were to find the role of diffusion-weighted MR imaging in characterizing intracerebral masses and to find a correlation, if any, between the different parameters of diffusion-weighted imaging and histologic analysis of tumors. The usefulness of diff...

Alzheimer's disease (AD) can be conceptualized as a disconnection syndrome. Both remitted geriatric depression (RGD) and amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI) are associated with a high risk for developing AD. However, little is known about the similarities and differences in the topological pat...

We used a CT program "density mask" outlining areas with attenuation values less than -910 HU, to indicate areas of emphysema on a chest CT and to provide an overall percentage of lung involvement by emphysema. The "density mask" quantitation of emphysema was previously shown to correlate well with ...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Synthetic MR imaging enables reconstruction of various image contrasts from 1 scan, reducing scan times and potentially providing novel information. This study is the first large, prospective comparison of synthetic-versus-conventional MR imaging for routine neuroimaging. MAT...

Renal failure, a public health concern, and the scarcity of nephrologists around the globe have necessitated the development of an AI-based system to auto-diagnose kidney diseases. This research deals with the three major renal diseases categories: kidney stones, cysts, and tumors, and gathered and ...

BACKGROUND: Artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms can be trained to recognise tuberculosis-related abnormalities on chest radiographs. Various AI algorithms are available commercially, yet there is little impartial evidence on how their performance compares with each other and with radiologists. W...

A brain tumor is a life-threatening neurological condition caused by the unregulated development of cells inside the brain or skull. The death rate of people with this condition is steadily increasing. Early diagnosis of malignant tumors is critical for providing treatment to patients, and early dis...

Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging has unparalleled soft-tissue imaging capabilities. The presence of devices such as pacemakers and implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs), however, was historically considered a contraindication to MR imaging. We summarize the potential hazards of the device-MR...

Early diagnosis of brain tumors is critical for enhancing patient prognosis and treatment options, while accurate classification and segmentation of brain tumors are vital for developing personalized treatment strategies. Despite the widespread use of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) for brain exami...

The incidence of traumatic brain injury (TBI) in the United States was 3.5 million cases in 2009, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. It is a contributing factor in 30.5% of injury-related deaths among civilians. Additionally, since 2000, more than 260,000 service members we...

The abnormal growth of malignant or nonmalignant tissues in the brain causes long-term damage to the brain. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is one of the most common methods of detecting brain tumors. To determine whether a patient has a brain tumor, MRI filters are physically examined by experts a...

CONTEXT: Uterine leiomyomas (fibroids or myomas) are benign tumors of the uterus and are clinically apparent in up to 25% of reproductive-age women. Heavy or abnormal uterine bleeding, pelvic pain or pressure, infertility, and recurrent pregnancy loss are generally associated with leiomyoma. Althoug...
