Effect of latent space distribution on the segmentation of images with multiple annotations
Ishaan Bhat, Josien P. W. Pluim, Max A. Viergever +1
We propose the Generalized Probabilistic U-Net, which extends the Probabilistic U-Net by allowing more general forms of the Gaussian distribution as the latent space distribution t…
Standardized Assessment of Automatic Segmentation of White Matter Hyperintensities and Results of the WMH Segmentation Challenge
Hugo J. Kuijf, J. Matthijs Biesbroek, Jeroen de Bresser +41
Quantification of cerebral white matter hyperintensities (WMH) of presumed vascular origin is of key importance in many neurological research studies. Currently, measurements are o…
Coronary Artery Centerline Extraction in Cardiac CT Angiography Using a CNN-Based Orientation Classifier
Jelmer M. Wolterink, Robbert W. van Hamersvelt, Max A. Viergever +2
Coronary artery centerline extraction in cardiac CT angiography (CCTA) images is a prerequisite for evaluation of stenoses and atherosclerotic plaque. We propose an algorithm that…
Direct Prediction of Cardiovascular Mortality from Low-dose Chest CT using Deep Learning
Sanne G. M. van Velzen, Majd Zreik, Nikolas Lessmann +4
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a leading cause of death in the lung cancer screening population. Chest CT scans made in lung cancer screening are suitable for identification of pa…
A Deep Learning Framework for Unsupervised Affine and Deformable Image Registration
Bob D. de Vos, Floris F. Berendsen, Max A. Viergever +3
Image registration, the process of aligning two or more images, is the core technique of many (semi-)automatic medical image analysis tasks. Recent studies have shown that deep lea…
Automatic, fast and robust characterization of noise distributions for diffusion MRI
Samuel St-Jean, Alberto De Luca, Max A. Viergever +1
Knowledge of the noise distribution in magnitude diffusion MRI images is the centerpiece to quantify uncertainties arising from the acquisition process. The use of parallel imaging…
A Recurrent CNN for Automatic Detection and Classification of Coronary Artery Plaque and Stenosis in Coronary CT Angiography
Majd Zreik, Robbert W. van Hamersvelt, Jelmer M. Wolterink +3
Various types of atherosclerotic plaque and varying grades of stenosis could lead to different management of patients with coronary artery disease. Therefore, it is crucial to dete…
Direct and Real-Time Cardiovascular Risk Prediction
Bob D. de Vos, Nikolas Lessmann, Pim A. de Jong +2
Coronary artery calcium (CAC) burden quantified in low-dose chest CT is a predictor of cardiovascular events. We propose an automatic method for CAC quantification, circumventing i…
Deep learning analysis of the myocardium in coronary CT angiography for identification of patients with functionally significant coronary artery stenosis
Majd Zreik, Nikolas Lessmann, Robbert W. van Hamersvelt +5
In patients with coronary artery stenoses of intermediate severity, the functional significance needs to be determined. Fractional flow reserve (FFR) measurement, performed during…
Automatic calcium scoring in low-dose chest CT using deep neural networks with dilated convolutions
Nikolas Lessmann, Bram van Ginneken, Majd Zreik +4
Heavy smokers undergoing screening with low-dose chest CT are affected by cardiovascular disease as much as by lung cancer. Low-dose chest CT scans acquired in screening enable qua…
Automatic Segmentation and Disease Classification Using Cardiac Cine MR Images
Jelmer M. Wolterink, Tim Leiner, Max A. Viergever +1
Segmentation of the heart in cardiac cine MR is clinically used to quantify cardiac function. We propose a fully automatic method for segmentation and disease classification using…
Automatic segmentation of the intracranialvolume in fetal MR images
N. Khalili, P. Moeskops, N. H. P. Claessens +7
MR images of the fetus allow non-invasive analysis of the fetal brain. Quantitative analysis of fetal brain development requires automatic brain tissue segmentation that is typical…
End-to-End Unsupervised Deformable Image Registration with a Convolutional Neural Network
