Systems and methods for occlusion detection in medical images are provided. An input medical image of one or more vessels in an anatomical object of a patient is received. One or more anatomical landmarks are identified in the input medical image. A first patch and one or more additional patches are extracted from the input medical image based on the identified one or more anatomical landmarks. The first patch and the one or more additional patches depict different portions of the anatomical object. Features are extracted from the first patch and the one or more additional patches using a machine learning based feature extractor network. An occlusion in the one or more vessels is detected in the first patch based on the extracted features with or without modeling features on a probability distribution function. Results of the detecting are output.

Large vessel occlusion detection and classification in medical imaging

Systems and methods for determining a segmentation of a hemorrhage are provided. An input medical image of a hemorrhage of a patient is received. A contour-sensitive segmentation of the hemorrhage from the input medical image is performed using a machine learning based contour-sensitive segmentation network. A detection-sensitive segmentation of the hemorrhage from the input medical image is performed using a machine learning based detection-sensitive segmentation network. A final segmentation of the hemorrhage from the input medical image is determined based on results of the contour-sensitive segmentation and results of the detection-sensitive segmentation. The final segmentation of the hemorrhage is output.

Acute intracranial hemorrhage segmentation on brain images for volume quantification and individual detection

Systems and method for performing a medical imaging analysis task for making a clinical decision are provided. One or more input medical images of a patient are received. A medical imaging analysis task is performed from the one or more input medical images using a machine learning based network. The machine learning based network generates a probability score associated with the medical imaging analysis task. An uncertainty measure associated with the probability score is determined. A clinical decision is made based on the probability score and the uncertainty measure.

Machine learning for automatic detection of intracranial hemorrhages with uncertainty measures from medical images

Systems and methods for generating a probabilistic tree of vessels are provided. An input medical image of vessels of a patient is received. Anatomical landmarks are identified in the input medical image. A centerline of the vessels in the input medical image is determined based on the anatomical landmarks. A probabilistic tree of the vessels is generated based on a probability of fit of the anatomical landmarks and the centerline of the vessels. The probabilistic tree of the vessels is output.

Probabilistic tree tracing and large vessel occlusion detection in medical imaging

Systems and methods for assessing expansion of an abnormality are provided. A first input medical image of a patient depicting an abnormality at a first time and a second input medical image of the patient depicting the abnormality at a second time are received. The second input medical image is registered with the first input medical image. The abnormality is segmented from 1) the first input medical image to generate a first segmentation map and 2) the registered second input medical image to generate a second segmentation map. The first segmentation map and the second segmentation map are combined to generate a combined map. Features are extracted from the first input medical image and the registered second input medical image are based on the combined map. Expansion of the abnormality is assessed based on the extracted features using a trained machine learning based network. Results of the assessment are output.

Automatic hemorrhage expansion detection from head CT images

Systems and methods for generating a synthesized medical image are provided. An input medical image is received. A synthesized segmentation mask is generated. The input medical image is masked based on the synthesized segmentation mask. The masked input medical image has an unmasked portion and a masked portion. An initial synthesized medical image is generated using a trained machine learning based generator network. The initial synthesized medical image includes a synthesized version of the unmasked portion of the masked input medical image and synthesized patterns in the masked portion of the masked input medical image. The synthesized patterns is fused with the input medical image to generate a final synthesized medical image.

Medical image synthesis of abnormality patterns associated with COVID-19

Systems and methods for assessing a disease are provided. Medical imaging data of lungs of a patient is received. The lungs are segmented from the medical imaging data and abnormality regions associated with a disease are segmented from the medical imaging data. An assessment of the disease is determined based on the segmented lungs and the segmented abnormality regions. The disease may be COVID-19 (coronavirus disease 2019) or diseases, such as, e.g., SARS (severe acute respiratory syndrome), MERS (Middle East respiratory syndrome), or other types of viral and non-viral pneumonia.

Assessment of abnormality regions associated with a disease from chest CT images

System and methods are provided for localizing a target object in a medical image. The medical image is discretized into a plurality of images having different resolutions. For each respective image of the plurality of images, starting from a first image and progressing to a last image with the progression increasing in resolution, a sequence of actions is performed for modifying parameters of a target object in the respective image. The parameters of the target object comprise nonlinear parameters of the target object. The sequence of actions is determined by an artificial intelligence agent trained for a resolution of the respective image to optimize a reward function. The target object is localized in the medical image based on the modified parameters of the target object in the last image.
