Book Synopsis Comprehensive Framework for Computer-aided Prostate Cancer Detection in Multi-parametric MRI by : Audrey Chung
Download or read book Comprehensive Framework for Computer-aided Prostate Cancer Detection in Multi-parametric MRI written by Audrey Chung and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prostate cancer is the most diagnosed form of cancer and one of the leading causes of cancer death in men, but survival rates are relatively high with sufficiently early diagnosis. The current clinical model for initial prostate cancer screening is invasive and subject to overdiagnosis. As such, the use of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has recently grown in popularity as a non-invasive imaging-based prostate cancer screening method. In particular, the use of high volume quantitative radiomic features extracted from multi-parametric MRI is gaining attraction for the auto-detection of prostate tumours since it provides a plethora of mineable data which can be used for both detection and prognosis of prostate cancer. Current image-based cancer detection methods, however, face notable challenges that include noise in MR images, variability between different MRI modalities, weak contrast, and non-homogeneous texture patterns, making it difficult for diagnosticians to identify tumour candidates. In this thesis, a comprehensive framework for computer-aided prostate cancer detection using multi-parametric MRI was introduced. The framework consists of two parts: i) a saliency-based method for identifying suspicious regions in multi-parametric MR prostate images based on statistical texture distinctiveness, and ii) automatic prostate tumour candidate detection using a radiomics-driven conditional random field (RD-CRF). The framework was evaluated using real clinical prostate multi-parametric MRI data from 20 patients, and both parts were compared against state-of-the-art approaches. The suspicious region detection method achieved a 1.5% increase in sensitivity, and a 10% increase in specificity and accuracy over the state-of-the-art method, indicating its potential for more visually meaningful identification of suspicious tumour regions. The RD-CRF method was shown to improve the detection of tumour candidates by mitigating sparsely distributed tumour candidates and improving the detected tumour candidates via spatial consistency and radiomic feature relationships. Thus, the developed framework shows potential for aiding medical professionals with performing more efficient and accurate computer-aided prostate cancer detection.

Download or read book Prostate Cancer written by Sam S. Chang and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-05-10 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prostate cancer is the most frequent genitourinary malignancy that garners significant medical and media attention. Over the past decade significant new discoveries have been made that have enabled substantial improvements in screening, diagnosis and management of this disease. Importantly, there has been constant evolution of the best way to treat these patients. This text will provide a single, comprehensive reference source that incorporates all the latest information regarding prostate cancer. It will serve as an easy reference source for researchers, clinicians, individuals in training, allied health professionals and medical students regarding prostate cancer by focusing on the controversial points of debate. New data regarding PSA screening, prostate cancer biomarkers, diagnostic evaluation techniques, surveillance protocols, and treatment interventions for localized and more advanced disease will be discussed. Gaps in current knowledge and areas for future research will be highlighted. Ongoing important clinical trials which could imminently yield significant new knowledge will be discussed. Uniquely to all of the above will be the clinical scenario-based format of this text. For the practicing physician, the prostate cancer screening and treatment situations will hopefully become better understood. We will incorporate key educational concepts in the framework of patient situations with evidence-based discussions of screening, diagnosis, evaluation, and therapeutic management. To provide even more insight, we plan on a comment section from leaders in the field that will be more “opinion-based” allowing the reader to get access to experienced physicians’ thought processes and practice patterns. All chapters will be authored by experts in their respective fields and incorporate original figures and illustrations to the extent possible. We anticipate that this book will quickly become the ready reference source for professionals and students in various fields with an interest in the management of a complex and multifaceted disease such as prostate cancer. The book will be comprehensive and encompass the entire the spectrum of prostate cancer. The information will be presented in a succinct and easily understandable manner so as to appeal to both scientists and clinicians.
