It acts as an insulator to ensure rapid and accurate transmission of electrical signals in the nervous system. Myelin water fraction (MWF) serves as a biomarker for the myelin sheath. Several methods for determining the MWF have been proposed; however, the inconsistency of MWF values is a challenge. In this study, we attempted to derive the MWF using quantitative parameter mapping (QPM). QPM ensures reproducibility by maintaining consistent imaging conditions across different scanners, enabling stable acquisition of quantitative parameters. This is expected to improve the reliability of the MWF measurements. Additionally, a significant correlation between QPM-derived parameters and the MWF has been reported. Five healthy volunteers were included in this study. QPM-MRI was performed using a 3-Tesla MR scanner with a three-dimensional radio frequency-spoiled steady-state gradient-echo (3D-RSSG) method. Using the derived quantitative values, pseudo-intensity images were generated for arbitrary continuous echo time values. Subsequently, a model equation for the brain tissue was defined. The generated signals were fitted with triexponential curve to estimate the amplitudes of each tissue component. Finally, the MWF was calculated using the amplitude ratio of each tissue. The mean MWF values for white matter and gray matter were 8.20 ± 4.97% and 7.99 ± 3.45%, respectively. This method using QPM allows for 3D data collection within a scan time applicable to standard clinical examinations and provides high accuracy in relaxation time estimation, thereby enabling stable quantification of MWF and suggesting its potential for clinical implementation.</p>","PeriodicalId":46252,"journal":{"name":"Radiological Physics and Technology","volume":" ","pages":"633-643"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144057612","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The system classified the chest X-ray images into four categories: anteroposterior (AP), posteroanterior (PA), flipped AP, and flipped PA. To evaluate the impact of internal and external datasets on the classification accuracy, the DCNN was trained using multiple publicly available chest X-ray datasets and tested on both internal and external data. The results demonstrated that the DCNN accurately classified the imaging directions and detected image reversal. However, the classification accuracy was strongly influenced by the training dataset.

The model was trained using 465 datasets obtained from 34 prostate cancer patients. A total of 16 features were collected as input data, which included basic patient information, patient health status, blood examination laboratory results, and specific radiation therapy information. The ratio of the bladder volume between daily CBCT (dCBCT) and planning CT (pCT) was used as the model response. The model was trained using a bootstrap aggregation (bagging) algorithm with two machine learning (ML) approaches: classification and regression. The model accuracy was validated using other 93 datasets. For the regression approach, the accuracy of the model was evaluated based on the root mean square error (RMSE) and mean absolute error (MAE). By contrast, the model performance of the classification approach was assessed using sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy scores. The ML model showed promising results in the prediction of the bladder volume ratio between dCBCT and pCT, with an RMSE of 0.244 and MAE of 0.172 for the regression approach, sensitivity of 95.24%, specificity of 92.16%, and accuracy of 93.55% for the classification approach.

In this study, we aim to introduce an innovative mobile CNN architecture designed for orthopedic imaging that efficiently identifies both Bankart and SLAP lesions. Our approach involved the collection of two distinct magnetic resonance (MR) image datasets, with the primary goal of automating the detection of Bankart and SLAP lesions. A novel mobile CNN, dubbed MobileTurkerNeXt, forms the cornerstone of this research. This newly developed model, comprising roughly 1 million trainable parameters, unfolds across four principal stages: the stem, main, downsampling, and output phases. The stem phase incorporates three convolutional layers to initiate feature extraction. In the main phase, we introduce an innovative block, drawing inspiration from ConvNeXt, EfficientNet, and ResNet architectures. The downsampling phase utilizes patchify average pooling and pixel-wise convolution to effectively reduce spatial dimensions, while the output phase is meticulously engineered to yield classification outcomes. Our experimentation with MobileTurkerNeXt spanned three comparative scenarios: Bankart versus normal, SLAP versus normal, and a tripartite comparison of Bankart, SLAP, and normal cases. The model demonstrated exemplary performance, achieving test classification accuracies exceeding 96% across these scenarios. The empirical results underscore the MobileTurkerNeXt's superior classification process in differentiating among Bankart, SLAP, and normal conditions in orthopedic imaging. This underscores the potential of our proposed mobile CNN in advancing diagnostic capabilities and contributing significantly to the field of medical image analysis.</p>","PeriodicalId":46252,"journal":{"name":"Radiological Physics and Technology","volume":" ","pages":"653-669"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144209826","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
