Prostatic urinary tract visualization with super-resolution deep learning models

Abstract: In urethra-sparing radiation therapy, prostatic urinary tract visualization is important in decreasing the urinary side effect. A methodology has been developed to visualize the prostatic urinary tract using post-urination magnetic resonance imaging (PU-MRI) without a urethral catheter. This study investigated whether the combination of PU-MRI and super-resolution (SR) deep learning models improves the visibility of the prostatic urinary tract. We enrolled 30 patients who had previously undergone real-time-ima… Show more

“…Deep learning techniques, specifically CNNs, have been applied to various medical image analyses [ 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 ]. CNNs are widely used for image classification [ 12 , 13 , 14 ] regression [ 15 , 16 , 17 ], object detection [ 18 , 19 ], super resolution [ 20 , 21 ], and semantic segmentation [ 22 , 23 , 24 ]. Recent studies have proposed automatic segmentation of the left ventricle lumen to reduce tracing time and interobserver errors in the study of cardiac function [ 25 ].…”

“…In recent years, several studies have performed medical image analyses using the deep learning (DL) techniques [4][5][6]. Among the DL techniques using convolutional neural network, classification [7], semantic segmentation [8], and object detection [9] are suitable for medical image analyses, and there are many reports on these techniques.…”
