Multiple resolution residual network for automatic thoracic organs-at-risk segmentation from CT [PDF]
We implemented and evaluated a multiple resolution residual network (MRRN) for multiple normal organs-at-risk (OAR) segmentation from computed tomography (CT) images for thoracic radiotherapy treatment (RT) planning. Our approach simultaneously combines feature streams computed at multiple image resolutions and feature levels through residual ...

Speckle illumination SFDI for projector-free optical property mapping [PDF]
Spatial Frequency Domain Imaging can map tissue scattering and absorption properties over a wide field of view, making it useful for clinical applications such as wound assessment and surgical guidance. This technique has previously required the projection of fully-characterized illumination patterns.
