Natural Language Processing – Forum, October 28, 2022

 1024 545 MaLMIC - Machine Learning in Medical Imaging Consortium

Richard Do, a radiologist, started the forum with a presentation on natural language processing (NLP) of radiology reports to track metastatic spread. Heidi Hanson, a researcher, talked about NLP in cancer surveillance. The two presentations were followed by discussion focused on lessons learned, opportunities to collaborate, and sharing of resources.

Machine Learning in Radiology – Forum, July 15 2022

 1000 563 MaLMIC - Machine Learning in Medical Imaging Consortium

Jaron Chong started the forum with an overview of the state of AI for medical imaging in Canada. The second presentation was by Alex Bilbily talking about the road to building impactful AI medical devices. The third presentation was by Benjamin Fine on pre-deployment evaluation. The three talks was followed by discussion focused on lessons learned, opportunities to collaborate and sharing of resources.

2022 | Self-supervised driven consistency training for annotation efficient histopathology image analysis

 150 150 MaLMIC - Machine Learning in Medical Imaging Consortium

In this work, we propose two novel strategies for unsupervised representation learning in histology: (i) a self-supervised pretext task that harnesses the underlying multi-resolution contextual cues in histology whole-slide images to learn a powerful supervisory signal for unsupervised representation learning; (ii) a new teacher-student semi-supervised consistency paradigm that learns to effectively transfer the pretrained representations to downstream tasks based on prediction consistency with the task-specific unlabeled data. We carry out extensive validation experiments on three histopathology benchmark datasets across two classification and one regression based tasks.

2022 | Self supervised contrastive learning for digital histopathology.

 150 150 MaLMIC - Machine Learning in Medical Imaging Consortium

Short Description: We apply a contrastive self-supervised method to digital histopathology. A large-scale study with 57 histopathology datasets without labels was conducted. Our study focuses on differences between natural-scene and histopathology images. We find combining multiple multi-organ datasets improves task performances. Using more pretraining data has diminishing returns after around 50,000 images.
Modality: Optical/Microscopy
Organ: Prostate, Breast, Colorectal
Disease: Cancer

2022 | Loss odyssey in medical image segmentation

 150 150 MaLMIC - Machine Learning in Medical Imaging Consortium

Short Description: In this paper, we present a comprehensive review of segmentation loss functions in an organized manner. We also conduct the first large-scale analysis of 20 general loss functions on four typical 3D segmentation tasks involving six public datasets from 10+ medical centres. Our code and segmentation results are publicly available and can serve as a loss function benchmark. We hope this work will also provide insights on new loss function development for the community.
Modality: CT
Organ: Liver, Pancreas

2021 | AMINN: Autoencoder-Based Multiple Instance Neural Network Improves Outcome Prediction in Multifocal Liver Metastases

 150 150 MaLMIC - Machine Learning in Medical Imaging Consortium

Short Description: We built a multiple instance learning network with radiomic features of liver MRI to predict survival of multifocal colorectal cancer liver metastases patients. We empirically validated our hypothesis that incorporating imaging features of all lesions improves outcome prediction for multifocal cancer. We released our code at https://github.com/martellab-sri/AMINN.
Modality: MR
Organ: Liver
Disease: Cancer
