Radiology report generation (RRG) is crucial to save the valuable time of radiologists in drafting the report, therefore increasing their work efficiency. Compared to typical methods that directly transfer image captioning technologies to RRG, our approach incorporates organ-wise priors into the report generation. Specifically, in this paper, we propose Organ-aware Diagnosis (OaD) to generate diagnostic reports containing descriptions of each physiological organ.

Semi-supervised learning (SSL) methods show their powerful performance to deal with the issue of data shortage in the field of medical image segmentation. However, existing SSL methods still suffer from the problem of unreliable predictions on unannotated data due to the lack of manual annotations for them. In this paper, we propose an unreliability-diluted consistency training (UDiCT) mechanism to dilute the unreliability in SSL by assembling reliable annotated data into unreliable unannotated data.

Abnormal iron accumulation in the brain subcortical nuclei has been reported to be correlated to various neurodegenerative diseases, which can be measured through the magnetic susceptibility from the quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM). To quantitatively measure the magnetic susceptibility, the nuclei should be accurately segmented, which is a tedious task for clinicians. In this paper, we proposed a dual-branch residual-structured U-Net (DB-ResUNet) based on 3D convolutional neural network (CNN) to automatically segment such brain gray matter nuclei.
