Modern imaging techniques are an essential component of preoperative planning in plastic
and reconstructive surgery. However, conventional modalities, including three-dimensional …

It has been shown that mechanical ventilation in patients with, or at high-risk for, the
development of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) can be a double-edged sword …

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is increasingly being recognized as a highly
heterogeneous disorder, composed of varying pathobiology. Accurate detection of COPD …

Deformable image registration is an important tool in medical image analysis. In the case of
lung computed tomography (CT) registration there are three major challenges: large motion …

A registration method for motion estimation in dynamic medical imaging data is proposed.
Registration is performed directly on the dynamic image, thus avoiding a bias towards a …

A four-dimensional deformable image registration (4D DIR) algorithm, referred to as 4D local
trajectory modeling (4DLTM), is presented and applied to thoracic 4D computed tomography …

Pulmonary fissure detection in computed tomography (CT) is a critical component for
automatic lobar segmentation. The majority of fissure detection methods use feature …

The authors propose a nonrigid image registration approach to align two computed‐
tomography (CT)‐derived lung datasets acquired during breath‐holds at two inspiratory …

In the last two years learning-based methods have started to show encouraging results in
different supervised and unsupervised medical image registration tasks. Deep neural …

Two calculation methods to produce ventilation images from four-dimensional computed
tomography (4DCT) acquired without added contrast have been reported. We reported a …
