CT colonography: avoiding traps and pitfalls
Computed tomographic colonography (CTC) is a reliable technique for detecting tumoral lesions in the colon. However, good performance of polyp detection is only achieved if experienced CTC radiologists combine meticulous interpretation with state-of-the-art CTC technique. To reach this experience level, CTC training is mandatory. With a considerably long and steep learning curve, it has been de...

متن کاملImproving initial polyp candidate extraction for CT colonography.
Reducing the number of false positives (FPs) as much as possible is a challenging task for computer-aided detection (CAD) of colonic polyps. As part of a typical CAD pipeline, an accurate and robust process for segmenting initial polyp candidates (IPCs) will significantly benefit the successive FP reduction procedures, such as feature-based classification of false and true positives (TPs). In t...
متن کاملAdoption of CT colonography by US hospitals.
PURPOSE Computed tomographic colonography (CTC) is a new noninvasive technology proposed as an option for colorectal cancer screening. The purpose of this study was to identify the percentage of US hospitals that offered CTC between 2005 and 2008 and factors that motivated or impeded adoption. METHODS Data on the provision of colorectal cancer screening services by nonfederal, general hospita...
متن کاملAvoiding OCL specification pitfalls
This paper discusses about teaching software modeling by using OCL specifications, in the context in which the web represents the main source of information. The raise of the interest for models induced a higher need for clear and complete specifications. In case of models specified by means of MOF-based languages, adding OCL constraints proved to be an interesting answer to this need. Several ...
