Computer-aided diagnosis techniques in medical imaging are developed for the automated differentiation between benign and malignant lesions and go beyond computer-aided detection by providing cancer likelihood for a detected lesion given image and/or patient characteristics. The goal of this study was the development and evaluation of a computer-aided detection and diagnosis algorithm for mammo...

Stimulated Raman histopathology with computer aided diagnosis.

non-destructive ultrasonic testing is one of the methods utilized to evaluate quality of agricultural produce. transducers used in this method are made for basically industrial applications. since ultrasonic attenuation of waves in agricultural produce is very high, industrial transducers cannot be used in agriculture and needs to be modified. this is done with horns that concentrate energy on ...

Lesion detection in Computed Tomography (CT) images is a challenging task the field of computer-aided diagnosis. An important issue to locate area lesion accurately. As branch Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), 3D Context-Enhanced (3DCE) frameworks are designed detect lesions on CT scans. The False Positives (FPs) detected 3DCE usually caused by inaccurate region proposals, which slow down i...

We describe a software system for building three-dimensional (3D) models from colonoscopic videos. The system is end-to-end in the sense that it takes as input raw image frames—shot during a colon exam—and produces the 3D structure of objects of interest (OOI), such as tumors, polyps, and lesions. We use the structure-from-motion (SfM) approach in computer vision which analyzes an image sequenc...

Automatic Computer Aided Diagnosis of Breast Cancer in Dynamic Contrast Enhanced Magnetic Resonance Images Hongbo Wu Master of Science Graduate Department of Medical Biophysics University of Toronto 2016 Automated Computer Aided Diagnosis (CADx) systems have the potential to improve the diagnostic accuracy of radiologists. Most CADx algorithms use features generated from outlined regions to dif...

Breast cancer is one of the leading causes deaths in women. As primary output breast screening, ultrasound (US) video contains exclusive dynamic information for diagnosis. However, training models analysis non-trivial as it requires a voluminous dataset which also expensive to annotate. Furthermore, diagnosis lesion faces unique challenges such inter-class similarity and intra-class variation. ...

Fixture design is crucial part of manufacturing process. Fixture design is a critical design activity process, in which automation plays an integral role in linking computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD). This paper presents a literature review in computer aided fixture design (CAFD) in terms of automation and optimization techniques over the past decades. First, the...

Computer-aided process planning (CAPP) is an essential component in linking computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM). Operation sequencing in CAPP is an essential activity. Each sequence of production operations which is produced in a process plan cannot be the best possible sequence every time in a changing production environment. As the complexity of the product incr...
