Diffusion as Sound Propagation: Physics-inspired Model for Ultrasound Image Generation
Marina Domínguez, Yordanka Velikova, Nassir Navab +1
Deep learning (DL) methods typically require large datasets to effectively learn data distributions. However, in the medical field, data is often limited in quantity, and acquiring…
Shape Completion in the Dark: Completing Vertebrae Morphology from 3D Ultrasound
Miruna-Alexandra Gafencu, Yordanka Velikova, Mahdi Saleh +4
Purpose: Ultrasound (US) imaging, while advantageous for its radiation-free nature, is challenging to interpret due to only partially visible organs and a lack of complete 3D infor…
CathFlow: Self-Supervised Segmentation of Catheters in Interventional Ultrasound Using Optical Flow and Transformers
Alex Ranne, Liming Kuang, Yordanka Velikova +2
In minimally invasive endovascular procedures, contrast-enhanced angiography remains the most robust imaging technique. However, it is at the expense of the patient and clinician's…
AiAReSeg: Catheter Detection and Segmentation in Interventional Ultrasound using Transformers
Alex Ranne, Yordanka Velikova, Nassir Navab +1
To date, endovascular surgeries are performed using the golden standard of Fluoroscopy, which uses ionising radiation to visualise catheters and vasculature. Prolonged Fluoroscopic…
Can ultrasound confidence maps predict sonographers' labeling variability?
Vanessa Gonzalez Duque, Leonhard Zirus, Yordanka Velikova +2
Measuring cross-sectional areas in ultrasound images is a standard tool to evaluate disease progress or treatment response. Often addressed today with supervised deep-learning segm…
LOTUS: Learning to Optimize Task-based US representations
Yordanka Velikova, Mohammad Farid Azampour, Walter Simson +2
Anatomical segmentation of organs in ultrasound images is essential to many clinical applications, particularly for diagnosis and monitoring. Existing deep neural networks require…
CACTUSS: Common Anatomical CT-US Space for US examinations
Yordanka Velikova, Walter Simson, Mehrdad Salehi +3
Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a vascular disease in which a section of the aorta enlarges, weakening its walls and potentially rupturing the vessel. Abdominal ultrasound has b…
