Differential Diagnosis for Pancreatic Cysts in CT Scans Using Densely-Connected Convolutional Networks [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 The lethal nature of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) calls for early differential diagnosis of pancreatic cysts, which are identified in up to 16% of normal subjects, and some of which may develop into PDAC. Previous computer-aided developments have achieved certain accuracy for classification on segmented cystic lesions in CT.

Optical detection of fractal dimensions of MUC13 stained pancreatic tissues for cancer diagnostics [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 Transmission intensity of a thin tissue sample produce intensity distribution that is proportional to the refractive index pattern in the thin slice, in turn reflects mass density pattern, and using the intensity pattern, fractal dimension can be calculated. In this paper, we report fractal dimension analyses of MUC13 stained pancreatic cancer tissues.
