Biographie

Julien Cohen-Adad est professeur à Polytechnique Montréal et directeur associé de l'Unité de neuro-imagerie fonctionnelle de l'Université de Montréal. Il est également titulaire de la Chaire de recherche du Canada en imagerie par résonance magnétique quantitative. Ses recherches portent sur l'avancement des méthodes de neuro-imagerie avec l'aide de l'IA. Voici quelques exemples de ses projets :

- Formation multimodale pour les tâches d'imagerie médicale (segmentation des pathologies, diagnostic, etc.);

- Ajout d'un a priori issu de la physique de l'IRM pour améliorer la généralisation des modèles;

- Incorporation de mesures d'incertitude pour traiter la variabilité interévaluateurs;

- Stratégies d'apprentissage continu lorsque le partage des données est restreint;

- Introduction des méthodes d'IA dans la routine de la radiologie clinique par l’intermédiaire de solutions logicielles conviviales.

Le professeur Cohen-Adad dirige également de nombreux projets de logiciels libres qui profitent à la communauté scientifique et clinique. Plus de détails sur https://neuro.polymtl.ca/software.html.

En résumé, Julien aime : l'IRM avec des aimants puissants, la neuro-imagerie, la programmation et la science ouverte!

Intervertebral Disc Labeling With Learning Shape Information, A Look Once Approach

Accurate and automatic segmentation of intervertebral discs from medical images is a critical task for the assessment of spine-related disea… (voir plus)ses such as osteoporosis, vertebral fractures, and intervertebral disc herniation. To date, various approaches have been developed in the literature which routinely relies on detecting the discs as the primary step. A disadvantage of many cohort studies is that the localization algorithm also yields false-positive detections. In this study, we aim to alleviate this problem by proposing a novel U-Net-based structure to predict a set of candidates for intervertebral disc locations. In our design, we integrate the image shape information (image gradients) to encourage the model to learn rich and generic geometrical information. This additional signal guides the model to selectively emphasize the contextual representation and suppress the less discriminative features. On the post-processing side, to further decrease the false positive rate, we propose a permutation invariant 'look once' model, which accelerates the candidate recovery procedure. In comparison with previous studies, our proposed approach does not need to perform the selection in an iterative fashion. The proposed method was evaluated on the spine generic public multi-center dataset and demonstrated superior performance compared to previous work. We have provided the implementation code in https://github.com/rezazad68/intervertebral-lookonce

Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) has been established its usefulness in evaluating normal-appearing white matter (NAWM) and other lesions that… (voir plus) are difficult to evaluate with routine clinical MRI in the evaluation of the brain and spinal cord lesions in multiple sclerosis (MS), a demyelinating disease. With the recent advances in the software and hardware of MRI systems, increasingly complex and sophisticated MRI and analysis methods, such as q-space imaging, diffusional kurtosis imaging, neurite orientation dispersion and density imaging, white matter tract integrity, and multiple diffusion encoding, referred to as advanced diffusion MRI, have been proposed. These are capable of capturing in vivo microstructural changes in the brain and spinal cord in normal and pathological states in greater detail than DTI. This paper reviews the current status of recent advanced diffusion MRI for assessing MS in vivo as part of an issue celebrating two decades of magnetic resonance in medical sciences (MRMS), an official journal of the Japanese Society of Magnetic Resonance in Medicine.
