Magnetic Resonance Images (MRI) are often contaminated by rician noise at the acquisition time. This type of noise typically deteriorates the performance of disease diagnosis by a human observer or an automated system. Thus, it is necessary to remove the rician noise from MRI scans as a preprocessing step. In this letter, we propose a novel Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), viz. CNN-DMRI, for denoising of MRI scans. The network uses a set of convolutions to separate the image features from the noise. The network also employs encoder-decoder structure for preserving the prominent features of the image while ignoring unnecessary ones. The training of the network is carried out in an end-to-end way by utilizing residual learning scheme. The performance of the proposed CNN has been tested qualitatively and quantitatively on one simulated and four real MRI datasets. Extensive experimental findings suggest that the proposed network can denoise MRI images effectively without losing crucial image details. (C) 2020 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

A computer-aided grading of glioma tumor using deep residual networks fusion

Prasun Chandra Tripathi, Soumen Bag

Summary: In this paper, a novel deep learning-based computer-aided diagnosis method for glioma tumors is proposed. The fusion of different residual networks enhances tumor classification performance, and the Dempster-Shafer Theory (DST)-based fusion technique produces superior results.

An Attention-Guided CNN Framework for Segmentation and Grading of Glioma Using 3D MRI Scans

Prasun Chandra Tripathi, Soumen Bag

Summary: In this study, a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN)-based framework is proposed for non-invasive grading of tumors from 3D MRI scans. The framework includes two novel CNN architectures for tumor segmentation and glioma grading classification. Experimental results show that the proposed framework outperforms state-of-the-art methods.
