3D Graph Anatomy Geometry-Integrated Network for Pancreatic Mass Segmentation, Diagnosis, and Quantitative Patient Management [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 The pancreatic disease taxonomy includes ten types of masses (tumors or cysts)[20,8]. Previous work focuses on developing segmentation or classification methods only for certain mass types. Differential diagnosis of all mass types is clinically highly desirable [20] but has not been investigated using an automated image understanding approach.

Interaction patterns in diabetes mellitus II network: An RMT relation [PDF]
arXiv, 2014 Diabetes mellitus type II affects around 8 percent of the total adult population in the world. It is the fifth leading cause of death in high income countries and an epidemic in developing countries. We analyze protein-protein interaction data of the pancreatic cells for normal and disease states.
