A Lung Nodule Dataset with Histopathology-based Cancer Type Annotation.

Recently, Computer-Aided Diagnosis (CAD) systems have emerged as indispensable tools in clinical diagnostic workflows, significantly alleviating the burden on radiologists. Nevertheless, despite their integration into clinical settings, CAD systems encounter limitations. Specifically, while CAD systems can achieve high performance in the detection of lung nodules, they face challenges in accurately predicting multiple cancer types.

VascuConNet: an enhanced connectivity network for vascular segmentation.

Medical image segmentation commonly involves diverse tissue types and structures, including tasks such as blood vessel segmentation and nerve fiber bundle segmentation. Enhancing the continuity of segmentation outcomes represents a pivotal challenge in medical image segmentation, driven by the demands of clinical applications, focusing on disease localization and quantification. In this study, a novel segmentation model is specifically designed for retinal vessel segmentation, leveraging vessel orientation information, boundary constraints, and continuity constraints to improve segmentation accuracy.
