Efficient Representation for Voxel Images

Although with recent progress, neural networks have on par ability compared to human in natural image. Currently, medical expert are more efficient at abstracting things (or say better representation ability), especially for voxel images. We have done several things to improve that:

  1. We believe voxel image should be represent in a continuous form instead of a discrete one (see NeRF). This idea is verified in a super-resolution setting. Submitted to MedIA.

  2. We recontruct vessel with its centerline, representing vessel with graph. Accepted by TMI, 2023 TaG-Net: Topology-aware Graph Network for Centerline-based Vessel Labeling L Yao, F Shi, S Wang, X Zhang, Z Xue, X Cao, Y Zhan, L Chen, Y Chen, B Song, Q Wang, D Shen

  3. We recontruct knee with its surface, representing the joint structure with graph. Accepted by TMI 2022 and MICCAI 2022.
