Mediastinal lymph nodes segmentation using 3D convolutional neural network ensembles and anatomical priors guiding [PDF]
As lung cancer evolves, the presence of enlarged and potentially malignant lymph nodes must be assessed to properly estimate disease progression and select the best treatment strategy. Following the clinical guidelines, estimation of short-axis diameter and mediastinum station are paramount for correct diagnosis.

Cardiac changes in mediastinal seminoma - a case report [PDF]
Primary pure cell seminoma of the mediastinum is a rare and potentially fatal lesion. Encroachment or invasion of adjacent structures is common, as are distant metastases.

Unpaired cross-modality educed distillation (CMEDL) for medical image segmentation [PDF]
Accurate and robust segmentation of lung cancers from CT, even those located close to mediastinum, is needed to more accurately plan and deliver radiotherapy and to measure treatment response. Therefore, we developed a new cross-modality educed distillation (CMEDL) approach, using unpaired CT and MRI scans, whereby an informative teacher MRI network ...

Development of the Lymphatic System in the 4D XCAT Phantom [PDF]
Purpose: The XCAT phantom allows for highly sophisticated multimodality imaging research. It includes a complete set of organs, muscle, bone, soft tissue, while also accounting for age, sex, and body mass index (BMI), which allows phantom studies to be performed at a population scale.

NOTES and the mediastinum [PDF]
When natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (NOTES) was introduced more than 10 years ago, it presented the possibility of less-invasive, initially abdominal procedures through the gut wall without skin incision. As procedures were carried out without sufficient basis of experience and knowledge about possible hazards, the most critical points

Descending necrotizing mediastinitis (DNM) is a rare, life-threatening form of mediastinitis caused by odontogenic, pharyngeal, or cervical infections. The retropharyngeal space is the most common primary site of infection. Given the fulminant course and

Primary mediastinal atypical meningioma: Report of a case and literature review
Meningiomas are common neoplasms arising from the central nervous system meninges. On the other hand, primary ectopic meningiomas are extremely rare and usually limited to the head and neck region or to the paravertebral soft tissues. Their occurrence in

Mediastinal Anaplastic Ependymoma
Ependymomas arise from ependymal cells and can grow at any site in the central nervous system (CNS), as well as in some locations outside of the CNS. The latter is rare, contributing to the frequent misdiagnoses of such cases. Herein, we present the case

Complex Organ Mask Guided Radiology Report Generation [PDF]
The goal of automatic report generation is to generate a clinically accurate and coherent phrase from a single given X-ray image, which could alleviate the workload of traditional radiology reporting. However, in a real-world scenario, radiologists frequently face the challenge of producing extensive reports derived from numerous medical images ...
