The interpretation of endobronchial ultrasound image using 3D convolutional neural network for differentiating malignant and benign mediastinal lesions [PDF]
The purpose of this study is to differentiate malignant and benign mediastinal lesions by using the three-dimensional convolutional neural network through the endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS) image. Compared with previous study, our proposed model is robust to noise and able to fuse various imaging features and spatiotemporal features of EBUS videos ...

Learning Ultrasound Scanning Skills from Human Demonstrations [PDF]
Recently, the robotic ultrasound system has become an emerging topic owing to the widespread use of medical ultrasound. However, it is still a challenging task to model and to transfer the ultrasound skill from an ultrasound physician. In this paper, we propose a learning-based framework to acquire ultrasound scanning skills from human demonstrations ...

Using Spatio-Temporal Dual-Stream Network with Self-Supervised Learning for Lung Tumor Classification on Radial Probe Endobronchial Ultrasound Video [PDF]
The purpose of this study is to develop a computer-aided diagnosis system for classifying benign and malignant lung lesions, and to assist physicians in real-time analysis of radial probe endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS) videos. During the biopsy process of lung cancer, physicians use real-time ultrasound images to find suitable lesion locations for ...
