An Automated MR Image Segmentation System Using Multi-layer Perceptron Neural Network
Background: Brain tissue segmentation for delineation of 3D anatomical structures from magnetic resonance (MR) images can be used for neuro-degenerative disorders, characterizing morphological differences between subjects based on volumetric analysis of gray matter (GM), white matter (WM) and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), but only if the obtained segmentation results are correct. Due to image arti...
متن کاملMR-guided multi-atlas based synthetic CT for MR-only radiotherapy of head and neck cancer patients
S71 ______________________________________________________________________________________________________ provided by dual-energy CT (DECT) compared to singleenergy CT (SECT) can be clinically used to reduce CT-based range uncertainties and to analyze intraand interpatient tissue variations. First, a DECT scan protocol was optimized and clinically introduced. Second, in a first analysis patien...
متن کاملDosimetric evaluation of synthetic CT for magnetic resonance-only based radiotherapy planning of lung cancer
BACKGROUND Interest in MR-only treatment planning for radiation therapy is growing rapidly with the emergence of integrated MRI/linear accelerator technology. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of using synthetic CT images generated from conventional Dixon-based MRI scans for radiation treatment planning of lung cancer. METHODS Eleven patients who underwent whole-body P...
متن کاملMR-based synthetic CT generation using a deep convolutional neural network method.
PURPOSE Interests have been rapidly growing in the field of radiotherapy to replace CT with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), due to superior soft tissue contrast offered by MRI and the desire to reduce unnecessary radiation dose. MR-only radiotherapy also simplifies clinical workflow and avoids uncertainties in aligning MR with CT. Methods, however, are needed to derive CT-equivalent represent...
متن کاملscour modeling piles of kambuzia industrial city bridge using hec-ras and artificial neural network
today, scouring is one of the important topics in the river and coastal engineering so that the most destruction in the bridges is occurred due to this phenomenon. whereas the bridges are assumed as the most important connecting structures in the communications roads in the country and their importance is doubled while floodwater, thus exact design and maintenance thereof is very crucial. f...
