Classifying mammography images by using fuzzy cognitive maps and a new segmentation algorithm
(2018)Mammography is one of the best techniques for the early detection of breast cancer. In this chapter, a method based on fuzzy cognitive map (FCM) and its evolutionary-based learning capabilities is presented for classifying ... -
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 ... -
Early detection of melanoma with the combined use of acoustic microscopy, infrared reflectance and Raman spectroscopy
(2015)Malignant melanoma is a form of skin cancer, with increasing incidence worldwide. Early diagnosis is crucial for the prognosis and treatment of the disease. The objective of this study is to develop a novel animal model ... -
Exploiting morphology and texture of 3D tumor models in DTI for differentiating glioblastoma multiforme from solitary metastasis
(2018)Ambiguous imaging appearance of Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM) and solitary Metastasis (MET) is a challenge to conventional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) based diagnosis, leading to exploitation of advanced MRI techniques, ... -
Local curvature analysis for differentiating Glioblastoma multiforme from solitary metastasis
(2016)Ambiguous imaging appearance of Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) and solitary metastasis (MET) is a challenge to conventional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) based diagnosis. In this study, a local curvature analysis scheme ... -
PET Counting Response Variability Depending on Tumor Location, Activity, and Patient Obesity: A Feasibility Study of Solitary Pulmonary Nodule Using Monte Carlo
(2019)We aim to investigate the counting response variations of positron emission tomography (PET) scanners with different detector configurations in the presence of solitary pulmonary nodule (SPN). Using experimentally validated ... -
Proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy at 3T - Evaluation of metabolic profile of human brain lesions
(2009)Brain MR imaging at 3T has been increasingly used in clinical practice since a great deal of effort has been invested in research into high magnetic fields to overcome the difficulties of successively working with stronger ... -
Transcriptional over-expression of chloride intracellular channels 3 and 4 in malignant pleural mesothelioma
(2015)Background Chloride Intracellular Channels (CLICs) are contributing to the regulation of multiple cellular functions. CLICs have been found over-expressed in several malignancies, and therefore they are currently considered ... -
Two Dimensional Drug Diffusion between Nanoparticles and Fractal Tumors
(2017)Drug delivery methods based on nanoparticles are some of the most promising medical applications in nanotechnology to treat cancer. It is observed that drug released by nanoparticles to the cancer tumors may be driven by ...
