Drs. Gurcan and Fauzi Published in BMC Medical Informatics and Decision Making

Drs. Gurcan and Fauzi are published in BMC Medical Informatics and Decision Making with their paper Classification of follicular lymphoma: the effect of computer aid on pathologists grading. Their paper presents a system, called Follicular Lymphoma Grading System (FLAGS), to assist the pathologist in grading FL cases. The results of this study show that FLAGS can be useful in increasing the pathologists’ accuracy in grading the tissue. To the best of our knowledge, this study measure, for the first time, the effect of computerized image analysis on pathologists’ grading of follicular lymphoma. When fully developed, such systems have the potential to reduce sampling bias by examining an increased proportion of HPFs within follicle regions, as well as to reduce inter- and intra-reader variability.

  3. Lymphoma is not a usual problem as this causes a lot of problems as well because all the patients do explore the details of what has happened with the patients and you need to provide the best treatment you need.

CIALAB encouraging talented young minds with summer internships

CIALAB is pleased to introduce the three interns namely Tong Gan, Rosana Rodriguez Milanes and Michael Priddy working through summer’09. Rosana Rodriguez Milanes - I am a third year undergraduate student in Electronic Engineering from Universidad del Norte, Colombia. My experience as a volunteer foreign student in the Clinical Image Analysis Laboratory has been an edifying, gratifying and enriching. Being able to participate, to learn and to collaborate in the Clinical Image Analysis Laboratory during the past two weeks has allowed me to improve my analytical and interpretative skills in processing histopathological and MRI images. I have been able to learn about segmentation, region growing, splitting and merging algorithms development. I have also had the privilege of knowing and interacting with excellent engineers who have helped me improve my skills as a foreign student. I am grateful for the opportunity that the Ohio State University has given me to collaborate and to learn with...

Dr. Gurcan to present a tutorial at IEEE ICASSP 2010

Dr. Gurcan will present a tutorial at IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech, and Signal Processing (ICASSP) 2010 entitled “Biomedical Image Processing and Analysis Techniques.” ( http://www.icassp2010.org/Tutorial_03.asp) Biomedical image processing and analysis requires coordinated efforts of medical professionals, algorithmic and software engineers, and statisticians. Basic image processing techniques are frequently used in every aspect of the development from initial pre-processing techniques for noise reduction, to segmentation of lesions, to registration of lesions. Recent advances in hardware and software have made it possible to create digital scans of whole slides. These images are relatively large (100k x 100k) and in color, hence processing them present new challenges. Similarly, new computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging scanners produce thousands of slices of images. The processing need for these images are enormous. Although biomedical image analy...

Meniscus research to be presented at 2009 OARSI World Congress on Osteoarthritis

CIALAB work detailing relationships between the meniscus and cartilage, and their implications in the development and progression of osteoarthritis, has been accepted for presentation at the 2009 OARSI World Congress on Osteoarthritis. The analysis was performed by Jeff Prescott, Furqan Haq PhD, Tom Best MD/PhD, Micheal Pennell PhD, Rebecca Jackson MD, and Metin Gurcan PhD. The full abstract appears below. Purpose : To determine associations between meniscus volume and knee cartilage morphological measurements in subjects with osteoarthritis (OA). Methods : All data was obtained from the Osteoarthritis Initiative’s (OAI) public use dataset (www.oai.ucsf.edu). A sample of progression subjects produced by the OAI was used for the study (Subgroup B, release 0.B.2). Out of the 160 subjects in the sample, two had no discernable meniscus and were excluded, leaving 158 subjects in the analysis. The current study focused on the right knee, as this was the only knee for which cartilage measur...
