Body composition is associated with risk of disease progression and treatment complications in a variety conditions. Therefore, quantification skeletal muscle mass adipose tissues on Computed Tomography (CT) and/or Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) may inform surgery evaluation prognosis. This article describes two methods originally described by Mourtzakis et al. Avrutin al.: tissue segmentatio...

PURPOSE To validate a fully automated adipose segmentation method with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) fat fraction abdominal imaging. We hypothesized that this method is suitable for segmentation of subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) and intra-abdominal adipose tissue (IAAT) in a wide population range, easy to use, works with a variety of hardware setups, and is highly repeatable. MATERIALS ...

‎this paper presents an application of partial differential equations(pdes) for the segmentation of abdominal and thoracic aortic in cta datasets. an important challenge in reliably detecting aortic is the need to overcome problems associated with intensity inhomogeneities. level sets are part of an important class of methods that utilize partial differential equations (pdes) and have been exte...

The problem that we investigate in the present paper is the improvement of the analysis of the primary tumor mass, in patients with advanced neuroblastoma, using X-ray computed tomography (CT) exams. To achieve this goal, we propose a methodology for the estimation of the histological content of the mass that comprises a technique for semi-automatic segmentation of the primary tumor mass in CT ...

At the heart of all automated driving systems is ability to sense surroundings, e.g., through semantic segmentation LiDAR sequences, which experienced a remarkable progress due release large datasets such as SemanticKITTI and nuScenes-LidarSeg. While most previous works focus on xmlns:xlink="ht...

Left Ventricular Hypertrophy has a risk of increasing the brevity of the population if left untreated. Quantitative aid in the diagnosis and prognosis of Left Ventricular Hypertrophy to field experts is very essential to classify the disease and proceed treatment. Endocardium segmentation of left and right ventricles is done through Local Chan Vese Model using Radial Charge Fitting Curve. This ...

Drastic changes and turbulence in macro-economic factors have the greatest impact on banks target market attractiveness in Iran. It is assumed that conventional segmentation models at the corporate level are not efficient for banking system. This study aims to develop a new segmentation model at the industry level for banks of Iran. For this purpose, structures and variables at the industry lev...
