Purpose: To present a review of most commonly used techniques to analyze dynamic
contrast‐enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE‐MRI), discusses their strengths and …

The kidney is a very important complicated filtering organ of the body. When the kidney
reaches stage 5 chronic kidney disease, end stage renal failure, the preeminent therapy is …

There is an urgent need to develop and integrate new statistical, mathematical, visualization,
and computational models with the ability to analyze Big Data in order to retrieve useful …

Blood pressure (BP) changes with age are widespread, and systemic high blood pressure
(HBP) is a significant contributor for strokes and cognitive impairment. A non-invasive …

A new 3D segmentation method based on the level set technique is proposed. The main
contribution is a robust evolutionary model that requires no fine tuning of parameters. A …

This chapter overviews one of the most critical problems in urology, namely detection of
acute renal transplant rejection. Developing an effective, fast, and accurate computer-aided …

Dynamic MR image recordings (DCE-MRI) of moving organs using bolus injections create
two different types of dynamics in the images:(i) spatial motion artifacts due to patient …

In this paper, we propose a novel non-invasive framework for the early diagnosis of prostate
cancer from diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI). The proposed …

Objective: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a serious medical condition characterized by
gradual loss of kidney function. Early detection and diagnosis is mandatory for adequate …

Dynamic contrast enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) of the kidneys
requires proper motion correction and segmentation to enable an estimation of glomerular …
