Clinical validation of the LKB model and parameter sets for predicting radiation-induced pneumonitis from breast cancer radiotherapy
(2006)The choice of the appropriate model and parameter set in determining the relation between the incidence of radiation pneumonitis and dose distribution in the lung is of great importance, especially in the case of breast ... -
Confluent hepatic fibrosis as the presenting imaging sign in nonadvanced alcoholic cirrhosis
(2004)Confluent hepatic fibrosis (CHF) is usually a feature of advanced cirrhosis, while occurrence in early stage compensated cirrhosis is uncommon. We report the imaging findings of masslike CHF in a patient with previously ... -
A Convolutional Neural Network-based explainable classification method of SPECT myocardial perfusion images in nuclear cardiology
(2022)This study targets on the development of an explainable Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) pipeline in the form of a handcrafted CNN to identify patients' coronary artery disease status (normal, ischemia or infarction). ... -
Deep Learning for Bone Metastasis Localisation in Nuclear Imaging data of Breast Cancer Patients
(2021)Bone scintigraphy is a popular method for the diagnosis of bone metastasis that typically occurs when cancer cells from the primary tumor relocate to the bone. In bone scintigraphy, the whole patient's body is scanned and ... -
Development of an mHealth open source platform for diabetic foot ulcers tele-consultations
(2012)Diabetes is one of the foremost causes of death in many countries and a leading cause of blindness, renal failure, and non-traumatic amputation. Therefore, diabetic foot ulceration and amputation cause extensive burden on ... -
