  1. 1. Simulating metal ct artefacts for ground truth generation in deep learning.

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

    Author : Arthur Barakat; [2023]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : CT scanning stands as one of the most employed imaging techniques used in clinical field. In the presence of metal implants in the field of view (FOV), distortions and noise appear on the 3D image leading to inaccurate bone segmentation, often required for surgery planning or implant design.

  3. 2. Emphysema Classification via Deep Learning

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för datavetenskap

    Author : Olov Molin; [2023]
    Keywords : Deep learning; emphysema; CNN;

    Abstract : Emphysema is an incurable lung airway disease and a hallmark of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). In recent decades, Computed Tomography (CT) has been used as a powerful tool for the detection and quantification of different diseases, including emphysema. The use of CT comes with a potential risk: ionizing radiation. READ MORE
