Is your uncertainty map wrong, or is its target? Exact diagnostics for the Tweedie diagonal, and a gradient-free alternative

Vicent Ribas, Anna Oliveras Tous

A diffusion model can predict a follow-up medical scan from a baseline, but a clinician needs a per-voxel map of where that prediction can be trusted. Many such maps approximate th…

MUMINS: Metadata-conditioned Uncertainty-aware Medical Image Next-state Synthesis

Anna Oliveras, Roger Marí, Rafael Redondo +7

Forecasting anatomical changes such as tumor growth and neurodegeneration is a challenging generative vision task. Morphological evolution is subtle relative to static anatomy, hig…

LAND: Lung and Nodule Diffusion for 3D Chest CT Synthesis with Anatomical Guidance

Anna Oliveras, Roger Marí, Rafael Redondo +6

This work introduces a new latent diffusion model to generate high-quality 3D chest CT scans conditioned on 3D anatomical masks. The method synthesizes volumetric images of size 25…

An Uncertainty-aware Hierarchical Probabilistic Network for Early Prediction, Quantification and Segmentation of Pulmonary Tumour Growth

Xavier Rafael-Palou, Anton Aubanell, Mario Ceresa +3

Early detection and quantification of tumour growth would help clinicians to prescribe more accurate treatments and provide better surgical planning. However, the multifactorial an…

Detection, growth quantification and malignancy prediction of pulmonary nodules using deep convolutional networks in follow-up CT scans

Xavier Rafael-Palou, Anton Aubanell, Mario Ceresa +3

We address the problem of supporting radiologists in the longitudinal management of lung cancer. Therefore, we proposed a deep learning pipeline, composed of four stages that compl…

Pulmonary Nodule Malignancy Classification Using its Temporal Evolution with Two-Stream 3D Convolutional Neural Networks

Xavier Rafael-Palou, Anton Aubanell, Ilaria Bonavita +4

Nodule malignancy assessment is a complex, time-consuming and error-prone task. Current clinical practice requires measuring changes in size and density of the nodule at different…

Re-Identification and Growth Detection of Pulmonary Nodules without Image Registration Using 3D Siamese Neural Networks

Xavier Rafael-Palou, Anton Aubanell, Ilaria Bonavita +4

Lung cancer follow-up is a complex, error prone, and time consuming task for clinical radiologists. Several lung CT scan images taken at different time points of a given patient ne…

Integration of Convolutional Neural Networks for Pulmonary Nodule Malignancy Assessment in a Lung Cancer Classification Pipeline

Ilaria Bonavita, Xavier Rafael-Palou, Mario Ceresa +3

The early identification of malignant pulmonary nodules is critical for better lung cancer prognosis and less invasive chemo or radio therapies. Nodule malignancy assessment done b…
