Drs. Goceri, Kus, and Senaras Present at OSUMC Research Day

On April 25th, Drs. Goceri, Kus, and Senaras presented their research at the OSUMC Research Day. 
Dr. Evgin Goceri presented “Automatic and Robust Segmentation of Liver and Its Vessels from MR Datasets for Pre-Evaluation of Liver Translation” which proposed a robust and fully automated method for segmenting the liver and its vessels from MR images. Dr. Goceri’s study presented a novel approach to reducing processing time by employing binary regularization of the level set function. The fully-automatic segmentation of liver and its vessels with the proposed method was more efficient than manual approach and the other methods in the literature in terms of processing time and accuracy.

Dr. Pelin Kus presented “Segmentation and Quantification of Tissue Necrosis in Tuberculosis” which focuses on how the immune system of patients infected with M. tuberculosis responds by using many types of cells including macrophages that form granulomas within the pulmonary tissue. Segmentation and quantification of the necrosis often formed in the center of the granuloma will enable experts to understand the relationship between genes, molecules, and cells that contribute to granuloma and/or lung necrosis and to better identify and treat patients infected with M. tuberculosis. Dr. Kus’s study developed an algorithm to quantify and delineate necrotic areas from histopathological slides for the tuberculosis disease. The promising results of this study indicate the possibility of using such an algorithm for large scale analysis.

Dr. Caglar Senaras presented “Automated Otoscopy to Diagnose Ear Pathology” which focused on methods for identifying ear infections. His project addressed the need to improve diagnostic accuracy by developing an objective method to assess the eardrum. Objective methods to identify eardrum abnormalities would assist clinicians in diagnosing or ruling out pathologies that may be subtle on clinical otoscopy (e.g., middle ear fluid). In Dr. Senaras’s study, a computer-based image analysis approach was proposed which can objectively determine whether an eardrum is “normal” or “abnormal”.

Recent publications

The CIA lab has recently had 4 articles published in PLOS One and the Journal of Urology. Automated Staging Of T1 Bladder Cancer Using Digital Pathologic H&E Images: A Deep Learning approach (Journal of Urology). The paper discusses the need for accurately gauging tumor cell intrusion into Lamina Propria in an effort to substage bladder cancer. It explains how transfer learning in conjunction with Convolutional Neural Networks can be used to accurately identify different bladder layers and then compute the distance between tumor nuclei and Lamina Propria. The article is available here:  https://www.jurology.com/article/S0022-5347(18)41148-2/pdf Identifying tumor in pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms from Ki67 images using transfer learning (PLOS One). This paper examines a proposed methodology to automatically differentiate between NET and non-tumor regions based on images of Ki67 stained biopsies. It also uses transfer learning to exploit a rich set of features ...

Computer’s help in wound image analysis

Computers help in wound image analysis CIALAB’s work in collaboration with the OSUMC Wound Center researchers entitled, “ Computerized Segmentation and Measurement of Chronic Wound Images” has been accepted to the journal of Computers in Biology and Medicine (CBM). The objective of this study is to develop methods to segment, measure and characterize clinically presented chronic wounds from photographic images. The methods were applied to 80 wound images, captured in a clinical setting at the Ohio State University Comprehensive Wound Center, with the ground truth independently generated by the consensus of at least two clinicians. Further details about the paper can be found at the CBM website: www.computersinbiologyandmedicine.com/article/S0010-4825(15)00064-5/abstract
