Abstract The skeletal bone age assessment (BAA) was extremely implemented in development prediction and auxiliary analysis of medicinal issues. X-ray images of hands were detected from the estimation of bone age, whereas the ossification centers of epiphysis and carpal bones are important regions. The typical skeletal BAA approaches remove these regions for predicting the bone age, however, few of them attain suitable efficacy or accuracy. Automatic BAA techniques with deep learning (DL) methods are reached the leading efficiency on manual and typical approaches. Therefore, this study introduces an intellectual skeletal bone age assessment and classification with… More >

Abstract Early detection of lung cancer can help for improving the survival rate of the patients. Biomedical imaging tools such as computed tomography (CT) image was utilized to the proper identification and positioning of lung cancer. The recently developed deep learning (DL) models can be employed for the effectual identification and classification of diseases. This article introduces novel deep learning enabled CAD technique for lung cancer using biomedical CT image, named DLCADLC-BCT technique. The proposed DLCADLC-BCT technique intends for detecting and classifying lung cancer using CT images. The proposed DLCADLC-BCT technique initially uses gray level co-occurrence More >

Abstract Colorectal cancer is one of the most commonly diagnosed cancers and it develops in the colon region of large intestine. The histopathologist generally investigates the colon biopsy at the time of colonoscopy or surgery. Early detection of colorectal cancer is helpful to maintain the concept of accumulating cancer cells. In medical practices, histopathological investigation of tissue specimens generally takes place in a conventional way, whereas automated tools that use Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques can produce effective results in disease detection performance. In this background, the current study presents an Automated AI-empowered Colorectal Cancer Detection and… More >

Abstract Malaria is a severe disease caused by Plasmodium parasites, which can be detected through blood smear images. The early identification of the disease can effectively reduce the severity rate. Deep learning (DL) models can be widely employed to analyze biomedical images, thereby minimizing the misclassification rate. With this objective, this study developed an intelligent deep-transfer-learning-based malaria parasite detection and classification (IDTL-MPDC) model on blood smear images. The proposed IDTL-MPDC technique aims to effectively determine the presence of malarial parasites in blood smear images. In addition, the IDTL-MPDC technique derives median filtering (MF) as a pre-processing… More >

Abstract Medical image processing becomes a hot research topic in healthcare sector for effective decision making and diagnoses of diseases. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a widely utilized tool for the classification and detection of prostate cancer. Since the manual screening process of prostate cancer is difficult, automated diagnostic methods become essential. This study develops a novel Deep Learning based Prostate Cancer Classification (DTL-PSCC) model using MRI images. The presented DTL-PSCC technique encompasses EfficientNet based feature extractor for the generation of a set of feature vectors.

Abstract The rapid development of biomedical imaging modalities led to its wide application in disease diagnosis. Tongue-based diagnostic procedures are proficient and non-invasive in nature to carry out secondary diagnostic processes ubiquitously. Traditionally, physicians examine the characteristics of tongue prior to decision-making. In this scenario, to get rid of qualitative aspects, tongue images can be quantitatively inspected for which a new disease diagnosis model is proposed. This model can reduce the physical harm made to the patients. Several tongue image analytical methodologies have been proposed earlier. However, there is a need exists to design an intelligent… More >
