Classification of Histopathology Images of Lung Cancer Using Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Cancer is the uncontrollable cell division of abnormal cells inside the human body, which can spread to other body organs. It is one of the non-communicable diseases (NCDs) and NCDs accounts for 71% of total deaths worldwide whereas lung cancer is the second most diagnosed cancer after female breast cancer.

DD-VNB: A Depth-based Dual-Loop Framework for Real-time Visually Navigated Bronchoscopy [PDF]
2024 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and
Systems (IROS)Real-time 6 DOF localization of bronchoscopes is crucial for enhancing intervention quality. However, current vision-based technologies struggle to balance between generalization to unseen data and computational speed. In this study, we propose a Depth-based Dual-Loop framework for real-time Visually Navigated Bronchoscopy (DD-VNB) that can generalize ...

AeroPath: An airway segmentation benchmark dataset with challenging pathology [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 To improve the prognosis of patients suffering from pulmonary diseases, such as lung cancer, early diagnosis and treatment are crucial. The analysis of CT images is invaluable for diagnosis, whereas high quality segmentation of the airway tree are required for intervention planning and live guidance during bronchoscopy.

Optimize transfer learning for lung diseases in bronchoscopy using a new concept: sequential fine-tuning [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 Bronchoscopy inspection as a follow-up procedure from the radiological imaging plays a key role in lung disease diagnosis and determining treatment plans for the patients. Doctors needs to make a decision whether to biopsy the patients timely when performing bronchoscopy.

Evaluation of the patient undergoing respiratory endoscopic procedures
Revista Portuguesa de Pneumologia, 2012 Endoscopic techniques can be considered reasonably safe since they are widely used and the rate of complications is extremely low. Still complications do occur and in order to avoid them, the evaluation of the patient before and after any intervention is
