3D Cardiac MRI automatic segmentation
Massive progress in 3D Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) gives today access to good 3D mapping of the heart, using gating to synchronize to the systolic phase of the pulse. MRI can give good distinction between the different tissues and blood without any hazard connected to radiation. 3D C...

Diabetic retinopathy screening and microaneurysm detection
Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) is a leading cause of blindness, especially among adults and even more among the elderly segments of the population. It is associated with type 1 and type 2 diabetes. It occurs when high glucose levels in the blood damage blood vessels in the retinal area, leading to sma...

Chromosome classification
Chromosomes are packaged and organized structures which contain most of the DNA of living organisms. The DNA that constitutes the chromosomes becomes more tightly aligned in the middle of the cell during the metaphase (the cell division) and is then visible on a microscope. In humans, each cell g...
