Electroencephalogram Based Detection of Deep Sedation in ICU Patients Using Atomic Decomposition.
This study was performed to evaluate how well states of deep sedation in ICU patients can be detected from the frontal electroencephalogram (EEG) using features based on the method of atomic decomposition (AD). ⋯ With further refinement and external validation, the proposed system may be able to assist clinical staff with continuous surveillance of sedation levels in mechanically ventilated critically ill ICU patients.

Medical Image Synthesis with Deep Convolutional Adversarial Networks.
Medical imaging plays a critical role in various clinical applications. However, due to multiple considerations such as cost and radiation dose, the acquisition of certain image modalities may be limited. Thus, medical image synthesis can be of great benefit by estimating a desired imaging modality without incurring an actual scan. ⋯ Experimental results show that our method is accurate and robust for synthesizing target images from the corresponding source images. In particular, we evaluate our method on three datasets, to address the tasks of generating CT from MRI and generating 7T MRI from 3T MRI images. Our method outperforms the state-of-the-art methods under comparison in all datasets and tasks.
