Automatic liver lesion classification on computed
tomography images is of great importance to early cancer
diagnosis and remains a challenging task. State-of-the-art
liver lesion classification algorithms are currently based on
manually selected regions of interest (ROIs) or automatically
detected ROIs. However, liver lesions usually vary in size
and shape, which makes the ROI selection process laborintensive
and also poses an obstacle to automatic lesion
detection. In this paper, we propose a dual-attention dilated

Conventional medical image registration relies on time-consuming iterative optimization. We propose a two-stage unsupervised learning method for 3D medical image registration. In the first stage, we learn a global image-wise affine map by a deep network. In the second stage, we learn a local voxel-wise deformation vector field by an encoder-decoder architecture. The final registered image is acquired by applying the local deformation field to the moved image of the first stage.

A volumetric non-blind single image super-resolution technique using tensor factorization has been recently introduced by our group. That method allowed a 2-order-of-magnitude faster high-resolution image reconstruction with equivalent image quality compared to state-of-the-art algorithms. In this work a joint alternating recovery of the high-resolution image and of the unknown point spread function parameters is proposed. The method is evaluated on dental computed tomography images.

In medical practice, the X-ray Computed tomography-based scans expose a high radiation dose and lead to the risk of prostate or abdomen cancers. On the other hand, the low-dose CT scan can reduce radiation exposure to the patient. But the reduced radiation dose degrades image quality for human perception, and adversely affects the radiologist’s diagnosis and prognosis. In this paper, we introduce a GAN based auto-encoder network to de-noise the CT images.

Accurate and fast segmentation of nuclei in histopathological images plays a crucial role in cancer research for detection and grading, as well as personal treatment. Despite the important efforts, current algorithms are still suboptimal in terms of speed, adaptivity and generalizability. Popular Deep Convolutional Neural Networks (DCNNs) have recently been utilized for nuclei segmentation, outperforming \textit{traditional} approaches that exploit color and texture features in combination with shallow classifiers or segmentation algorithms.

Lung cancer is the most prevalent cancer worldwide with about 230,000 new cases every year. Most cases go undiagnosed until it’s too late, especially in developing countries and remote areas. Early detection is key to beating cancer. Towards this end, the work presented here proposes an automated pipeline for lung tumor detection and segmentation from 3D lung CT scans from the NSCLC Radiomics Dataset. It also presents a new dilated hybrid-3D convolutional neural network architecture for tumor segmentation. First, a binary classifier chooses CT scan slices that may contain parts of a tumor.
