Liver imaging reporting and data system : review of major imaging features
(Elsevier, 2016-10-13)
The purpose of this article is to review and illustrate the Liver Imaging Reporting and Data System (LI-RADS) major features for interpretation and reporting of liver imaging examinations performed in patients at risk for ...
Navigation of microrobots by MRI : impact of gravitational, friction and thrust forces on steering success
(Springer, 2021-10-07)
Introduction
Magnetic resonance navigation (MRN) uses MRI gradients to steer magnetic drug-eluting beads (MDEBs) across vascular bifurcations. We aim to experimentally verify our theoretical forces balance model (gravitational, ...
Comparative 13-year meta-analysis of the sensitivity and positive predictive value of ultrasound, CT, and MRI for detecting hepatocellular carcinoma
(Springer, 2015-12-29)
Purpose
To compare the per-lesion sensitivity and positive predictive value (PPV) of ultrasonography (US), computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for the diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma ...
Comparison of MRI - and CT-based semiautomated liver segmentation : a validation study
(Springer, 2016-09-28)
Purpose
To compare the repeatability, agreement, and efficiency of MRI- and CT-based semiautomated liver segmentation for the assessment of total and subsegmental liver volume.
Methods
This retrospective study was ...
Epidemiology of hepatocellular carcinoma : target population for surveillance and diagnosis
(Springer, 2017-06-24)
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the sixth most common cancer and the second leading cause of cancer mortality worldwide. Incidence rates of liver cancer vary widely between geographic regions and are highest in Eastern ...
Noninvasive quantitation of human liver steatosis using magnetic resonance and bioassay methods
(Elsevier, 2009-03-11)
The purpose was to evaluate the ability of three magnetic resonance (MR) techniques to detect liver steatosis and to determine which noninvasive technique (MR, bioassays) or combination of techniques is optimal for the ...
Liver segmentation on CT and MR using laplacian mesh optimization
(Institute of electrical and electronics engineers, 2016-11-18)
Objective: The purpose of this paper is to describe a semiautomated segmentation method for the liver
and evaluate its performance on CT-scan and MR images.
Methods: First, an approximate 3-D model of the liver is
initialized ...
Live minimal path for interactive segmentation of medical images
(Society of photo-optical instrumentation engineers, 2015-03-20)
Medical image segmentation is nowadays required for medical device development and in a growing number of clinical and research applications. Since dedicated automatic segmentation methods are not always available, generic ...
