It is known that overlapping tissues cause highly complex projections in chest radiographs.
In addition, artificial objects, such as catheters, chest tubes and pacemakers can appear on …

Tubes like Endotracheal (ET) tube used to maintain patient's airway and the Nasogastric
(NG) tube used to feed the patient and drain contents of the stomach are very commonly …

Chest radiographs are the quickest and safest method to check placement of man-made
medical devices placed in the body like catheters, stents and pacemakers etc out of which …

This study presents a computer assisted diagnosis system for the detection of pneumothorax
(PTX) in chest radiographs based on a convolutional neural network (CNN) for pixel …

Purpose: Chest radiographs commonly contain projections of foreign objects, such as
buttons, brassier clips, jewellery, or pacemakers and wires. The presence of these structures …

The aim of this study was to develop an automated method for the detection of endotracheal
tube and location of its tip in paediatric chest radiographs. In this method, a seed point was …

Portable chest radiographic images play a critical role in examining and monitoring the
condition and progress of critically ill patients in intensive care units (ICUs). For example …

In intensive care units (ICU), endotracheal (ET) tubes are inserted to assist patients who may
have difficulty breathing. A malpositioned ET tube could lead to a collapsed lung, which is …

We propose a deep learning framework for the automated detection of foreign objects in
chest radiographs. Foreign objects can affect the diagnostic quality of an image and could …

Abstract Chest X-Rays (CXRs) are widely used for diagnosing abnormalities in the heart and
lung area. Automatically detecting these abnormalities with high accuracy could greatly …
