The annihilating filter-based low-rank Hankel matrix approach (ALOHA) is one of the state-of-the-art compressed sensing approaches that directly interpolates the missing k -space data using low-rank Hankel matrix completion. The success of ALOHA is due to the concise signal representation in the k -space domain, thanks to the duality between structured low-rankness in the k -space domain and the image domain sparsity. Inspired by the recent mathematical discovery that links convolutional neural

BACKGROUND: Accurate detection of brain metastasis (BM) is important for cancer patients. We aimed to systematically review the performance and quality of machine-learning-based BM detection on MRI in the relevant literature. METHODS: A systematic literature search was performed for relevant studies reported before April 27, 2020. We assessed the quality of the studies using modified tailored questionnaires of the Quality Assessment of Diagnostic Accuracy Studies 2 (QUADAS-2) criteria and the Ch

OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to compare the diagnostic performance of a deep learning algorithm with that of radiologists in diagnosing maxillary sinusitis on Waters' view radiographs. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Among 80,475 Waters' view radiographs, examined between May 2003 and February 2017, 9000 randomly selected cases were classified as normal or maxillary sinusitis based on radiographic findings and divided into training (n = 8000) and validation (n = 1000) sets to develop a deep lear

Recently, deep learning approaches for accelerated MRI have been extensively studied thanks to their high performance reconstruction in spite of significantly reduced run-time complexity. These neural networks are usually trained in a supervised manner, so matched pairs of subsampled, and fully sampled k-space data are required. Unfortunately, it is often difficult to acquire matched fully sampled k-space data, since the acquisition of fully sampled k-space data requires long scan time, and ofte

Abstract Retinal fundus images are used to detect organ damage from vascular diseases (e.g. diabetes mellitus and hypertension) and screen ocular diseases. We aimed to assess convolutional neural network (CNN) models that predict age and sex from retinal fundus images in normal participants and in participants with underlying systemic vascular-altered status. In addition, we also tried to investigate clues regarding differences between normal ageing and vascular pathologic changes using the CNN

ASL perfusion MR imaging can aid in the differentiation of GBM from brain metastasis.

The CNN algorithm for automatic segmentation of acute ischemic lesions on DWI achieved Dice indices greater than or equal to 0.85 and showed superior performance to conventional algorithms.

CAD as a second reader helps radiologists improve their diagnostic performance in the detection of BM on MR imaging, particularly for less-experienced reviewers.

PURPOSE: To retrospectively determine whether the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values correlate with O(6)-methylguanine DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) promoter methylation semiquantitatively analyzed by methylation-specific multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MS-MLPA) in patients with glioblastoma. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The study was approved by the Institutional Review Board and was Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) compliant. Newly diagnosed patie

DL can distinguish MMD cases within specific ages from controls in plain skull radiograph images with considerable accuracy and AUROC. The viscerocranium may play a role in MMD-related skull features. FUND: This work was supported by grant no. 18-2018-029 from the Seoul National University Bundang Hospital Research Fund.

Accurate image interpretation of Waters’ and Caldwell view radiographs used for sinusitis screening is challenging. Therefore, we developed a deep learning algorithm for diagnosing frontal, ethmoid, and maxillary sinusitis on both Waters’ and Caldwell views. The datasets were selected for the training and validation set (n = 1403, sinusitis% = 34.3%) and the test set (n = 132, sinusitis% = 29.5%) by temporal separation. The algorithm can simultaneously detect and classify each paranasal sinus us

BACKGROUND: Although accurate treatment response assessment for brain metastases (BMs) is crucial, it is highly labor intensive. This retrospective study aimed to develop a computer-aided detection (CAD) system for automated BM detection and treatment response evaluation using deep learning. METHODS: We included 214 consecutive MRI examinations of 147 patients with BM obtained between January 2015 and August 2016. These were divided into the training (174 MR images from 127 patients) and test da

BACKGROUND: Classification of true progression from nonprogression (eg, radiation-necrosis) after stereotactic radiotherapy/radiosurgery of brain metastasis is known to be a challenging diagnostic task on conventional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The scope and status of research using artificial intelligence (AI) on classifying true progression are yet unknown. METHODS: We performed a systematic literature search of MEDLINE and EMBASE databases to identify studies that investigated the perf

In conclusion, the use of the O-MAR in patients with metallic implants significantly reduces image noise. However, the degree of the streak artifacts and surrounding vessel depiction were not significantly improved on O-MAR images.
