Manipulating the Murine Lacrimal Gland [PDF]
Journal of Visualized Experiments, 2014 The lacrimal gland (LG) secretes aqueous tears necessary for maintaining the structure and function of the cornea, a transparent tissue essential for vision. In the human a single LG resides in the orbit above the lateral end of each eye delivering tears to the ocular surface through 3 - 5 ducts.

Neural Annotation Refinement: Development of a New 3D Dataset for Adrenal Gland Analysis [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 The human annotations are imperfect, especially when produced by junior practitioners. Multi-expert consensus is usually regarded as golden standard, while this annotation protocol is too expensive to implement in many real-world projects. In this study, we propose a method to refine human annotation, named Neural Annotation Refinement (NeAR).

PCG-Cut: Graph Driven Segmentation of the Prostate Central Gland [PDF]
PLoS ONE 8(10): e76645 (2013), 2013 Prostate cancer is the most abundant cancer in men, with over 200,000 expected new cases and around 28,000 deaths in 2012 in the US alone. In this study, the segmentation results for the prostate central gland (PCG) in MR scans are presented. The aim of this research study is to apply a graph-based algorithm to automated segmentation (i.e. delineation)

Investigating heterogeneous PSMA ligand uptake inside parotid glands [PDF]
Physica Medica: European Journal of Medical Physics, 2024The purpose was to investigate the spatial heterogeneity of prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) positron emission tomography (PET) uptake within parotid glands. We aim to quantify patterns in well-defined regions to facilitate further investigations.
