A review of machine learning approaches, challenges and prospects for computational tumor pathology [PDF]
Computational pathology is part of precision oncology medicine. The integration of high-throughput data including genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics, pathomics, and radiomics into clinical practice improves cancer treatment plans, treatment cycles, and cure rates, and helps doctors open up innovative approaches to patient prognosis.

Anatomy-Driven Pathology Detection on Chest X-rays [PDF]
Pathology detection and delineation enables the automatic interpretation of medical scans such as chest X-rays while providing a high level of explainability to support radiologists in making informed decisions. However, annotating pathology bounding boxes is a time-consuming task such that large public datasets for this purpose are scarce.

Quantitative and Qualitative Evaluation of Explainable Deep Learning Methods for Ophthalmic Diagnosis [PDF]
Background: The lack of explanations for the decisions made by algorithms such as deep learning has hampered their acceptance by the clinical community despite highly accurate results on multiple problems. Recently, attribution methods have emerged for explaining deep learning models, and they have been tested on medical imaging problems.

Blood Vessel Tortuosity Selects against Evolution of Agressive Tumor Cells in Confined Tissue Environments: a Modeling Approach [PDF]
Cancer is a disease of cellular regulation, often initiated by genetic mutation within cells, and leading to a heterogeneous cell population within tissues. In the competition for nutrients and growth space within the tumors the phenotype of each cell determines its success. Selection in this process is imposed by both the microenvironment (neighboring

Generative Adversarial Networks Synthesize Realistic OCT Images of the Retina [PDF]
We report, to our knowledge, the first end-to-end application of Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) towards the synthesis of Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) images of the retina. Generative models have gained recent attention for the increasingly realistic images they can synthesize, given a sampling of a data type.

Brain Age Revisited: Investigating the State vs. Trait Hypotheses of EEG-derived Brain-Age Dynamics with Deep Learning [PDF]
The brain's biological age has been considered as a promising candidate for a neurologically significant biomarker. However, recent results based on longitudinal magnetic resonance imaging data have raised questions on its interpretation. A central question is whether an increased biological age of the brain is indicative of brain pathology and if ...
