Enabling early detection of osteoarthritis from presymptomatic cartilage texture maps via transport-based learning.

ABSTRACT: Many diseases have no visual cues in the early stages, eluding image-based detection. Today, osteoarthritis (OA) is detected after bone damage has occurred, at an irreversible stage of the disease. Currently no reliable method exists for OA detection at a reversible stage. We present an approach that enables sensitive OA detection in presymptomatic individuals. Our approach combines optimal mass transport theory with statistical pattern recognition. Eighty-six healthy individuals were selected from the Osteoarthritis Initiative, with no symptoms or visual signs of disease on imaging. On 3-y follow-up, a subset of these individuals had progressed to symptomatic OA. We trained a classifier to differentiate progressors and nonprogressors on baseline cartilage texture maps, which achieved a robust test accuracy of 78% in detecting future symptomatic OA progression 3 y prior to symptoms. This work demonstrates that OA detection may be possible at a potentially reversible stage. A key contribution of our work is direct visualization of the cartilage phenotype defining predictive ability as our technique is generative. We observe early biochemical patterns of fissuring in cartilage that define future onset of OA. In the future, coupling presymptomatic OA detection with emergent clinical therapies could modify the outcome of a disease that costs the United States healthcare system $16.5 billion annually. Furthermore, our technique is broadly applicable to earlier image-based detection of many diseases currently diagnosed at advanced stages today.

T2 texture index of cartilage can predict early symptomatic OA progression: data from the osteoarthritis initiative.

Project description:OBJECTIVE:There is an interest in using Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) to identify pre-radiographic changes in osteoarthritis (OA) and features that indicate risk for disease progression. The purpose of this study is to identify image features derived from MRI T2 maps that can accurately predict onset of OA symptoms in subjects at risk for incident knee OA. METHODS:Patients were selected from the Osteoarthritis Initiative (OAI) control cohort and incidence cohort and stratified based on the change in total Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis (WOMAC) score from baseline to 3-year follow-up (80 non-OA progression and 88 symptomatic OA progression patients). For each patient, a series of image texture features were measured from the baseline cartilage T2 map. A linear discriminant function and feature reduction method was then trained to quantify a texture metric, the T2 texture index of cartilage (TIC), based on 22 image features, to identify a composite marker of T2 heterogeneity. RESULTS:Statistically significant differences were seen in the baseline T2 TIC between the non-progression and symptomatic OA progression populations. The baseline T2 TIC differentiates subjects that develop worsening of their WOMAC score OA with an accuracy between 71% and 76%. The T2 TIC differences were predominantly localized to a dominant knee compartment that correlated with the mechanical axis of the knee. CONCLUSION:Baseline heterogeneity in cartilage T2 as measured with the T2 TIC index is able to differentiate and predict individuals that will develop worsening of their WOMAC score at 3-year follow-up.

Differentiation of Cartilage Repair Techniques Using Texture Analysis from T<sub>2</sub> Maps.

Project description:ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to investigate texture features from T2 maps as a marker for distinguishing the maturation of repair tissue after 2 different cartilage repair procedures.DesignSeventy-nine patients, after either microfracture (MFX) or matrix-associated chondrocyte transplantation (MACT), were examined on a 3-T magnetic resonance (MR) scanner with morphological and quantitative (T2 mapping) MR sequences 2 years after surgery. Twenty-one texture features from a gray-level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM) were extracted. The texture feature difference between 2 repair types was assessed individually for the femoral condyle and trochlea/anterior condyle using linear regression models. The stability and reproducibility of texture features for focal cartilage were calculated using intra-observer variability and area under curve from receiver operating characteristics.ResultsThere was no statistical significance found between MFX and MACT for T2 values (P = 0.96). There was, however, found a statistical significance between MFX and MACT in femoral condyle in GLCM features autocorrelation (P < 0.001), sum of squares (P = 0.023), sum average (P = 0.005), sum variance (P = 0.0048), and sum entropy (P = 0.05); and in anterior condyle/trochlea homogeneity (P = 0.02) and dissimilarity (P < 0.001).ConclusionTexture analysis using GLCM provides a useful extension to T2 mapping for the characterization of cartilage repair tissue by increasing its sensitivity to tissue structure. Some texture features were able to distinguish between repair tissue after different cartilage repair procedures, as repair tissue texture (and hence, probably collagen organization) 24 months after MACT more closely resembled healthy cartilage than did MFX repair tissue.

Ensemble Learning Framework with GLCM Texture Extraction for Early Detection of Lung Cancer on CT Images.

Project description:Lung cancer has emerged as a major cause of death among all demographics worldwide, largely caused by a proliferation of smoking habits. However, early detection and diagnosis of lung cancer through technological improvements can save the lives of millions of individuals affected globally. Computerized tomography (CT) scan imaging is a proven and popular technique in the medical field, but diagnosing cancer with only CT scans is a difficult task even for doctors and experts. This is why computer-assisted diagnosis has revolutionized disease diagnosis, especially cancer detection. This study looks at 20 CT scan images of lungs. In a preprocessing step, we chose the best filter to be applied to medical CT images between median, Gaussian, 2D convolution, and mean. From there, it was established that the median filter is the most appropriate. Next, we improved image contrast by applying adaptive histogram equalization. Finally, the preprocessed image with better quality is subjected to two optimization algorithms, fuzzy c-means and k-means clustering. The performance of these algorithms was then compared. Fuzzy c-means showed the highest accuracy of 98%. The feature was extracted using Gray Level Cooccurrence Matrix (GLCM). In classification, a comparison between three algorithms-bagging, gradient boosting, and ensemble (SVM, MLPNN, DT, logistic regression, and KNN)-was performed. Gradient boosting performed the best among these three, having an accuracy of 90.9%.

Machine Learning-Based Presymptomatic Detection of Rice Sheath Blight Using Spectral Profiles.

Project description:Early detection of plant diseases, prior to symptom development, can allow for targeted and more proactive disease management. The objective of this study was to evaluate the use of near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy combined with machine learning for early detection of rice sheath blight (ShB), caused by the fungus Rhizoctonia solani. We collected NIR spectra from leaves of ShB-susceptible rice (Oryza sativa L.) cultivar, Lemont, growing in a growth chamber one day following inoculation with R. solani, and prior to the development of any disease symptoms. Support vector machine (SVM) and random forest, two machine learning algorithms, were used to build and evaluate the accuracy of supervised classification-based disease predictive models. Sparse partial least squares discriminant analysis was used to confirm the results. The most accurate model comparing mock-inoculated and inoculated plants was SVM-based and had an overall testing accuracy of 86.1% (N = 72), while when control, mock-inoculated, and inoculated plants were compared the most accurate SVM model had an overall testing accuracy of 73.3% (N = 105). These results suggest that machine learning models could be developed into tools to diagnose infected but asymptomatic plants based on spectral profiles at the early stages of disease development. While testing and validation in field trials are still needed, this technique holds promise for application in the field for disease diagnosis and management.

Early detection of Alzheimer's disease using MRI hippocampal texture.

Project description:Cognitive impairment in patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) is associated with reduction in hippocampal volume in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). However, it is unknown whether hippocampal texture changes in persons with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) that does not have a change in hippocampal volume. We tested the hypothesis that hippocampal texture has association to early cognitive loss beyond that of volumetric changes. The texture marker was trained and evaluated using T1-weighted MRI scans from the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) database, and subsequently applied to score independent data sets from the Australian Imaging, Biomarker & Lifestyle Flagship Study of Ageing (AIBL) and the Metropolit 1953 Danish Male Birth Cohort (Metropolit). Hippocampal texture was superior to volume reduction as predictor of MCI-to-AD conversion in ADNI (area under the receiver operating characteristic curve [AUC] 0.74 vs. 0.67; DeLong test, p = 0.005), and provided even better prognostic results in AIBL (AUC 0.83). Hippocampal texture, but not volume, correlated with Addenbrooke's cognitive examination score (Pearson correlation, r = -0.25, p < 0.001) in the Metropolit cohort. The hippocampal texture marker correlated with hippocampal glucose metabolism as indicated by fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography (Pearson correlation, r = -0.57, p < 0.001). Texture statistics remained significant after adjustment for volume in all cases, and the combination of texture and volume did not improve diagnostic or prognostic AUCs significantly. Our study highlights the presence of hippocampal texture abnormalities in MCI, and the possibility that texture may serve as a prognostic neuroimaging biomarker of early cognitive impairment.

PCovNet: A presymptomatic COVID-19 detection framework using deep learning model using wearables data.

Project description:While the advanced diagnostic tools and healthcare management protocols have been struggling to contain the COVID-19 pandemic, the spread of the contagious viral pathogen before the symptom onset acted as the Achilles' heel. Although reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) has been widely used for COVID-19 diagnosis, they are hardly administered before any visible symptom, which provokes rapid transmission. This study proposes PCovNet, a Long Short-term Memory Variational Autoencoder (LSTM-VAE)-based anomaly detection framework, to detect COVID-19 infection in the presymptomatic stage from the Resting Heart Rate (RHR) derived from the wearable devices, i.e., smartwatch or fitness tracker. The framework was trained and evaluated in two configurations on a publicly available wearable device dataset consisting of 25 COVID-positive individuals in the span of four months including their COVID-19 infection phase. The first configuration of the framework detected RHR abnormality with average Precision, Recall, and F-beta scores of 0.946, 0.234, and 0.918, respectively. However, the second configuration detected aberrant RHR in 100% of the subjects (25 out of 25) during the infectious period. Moreover, 80% of the subjects (20 out of 25) were detected during the presymptomatic stage. These findings prove the feasibility of using wearable devices with such a deep learning framework as a secondary diagnosis tool to circumvent the presymptomatic COVID-19 detection problem.

Avidin as a model for charge driven transport into cartilage and drug delivery for treating early stage post-traumatic osteoarthritis.

Project description:Local drug delivery into cartilage remains a challenge due to its dense extracellular matrix of negatively charged proteoglycans enmeshed within a collagen fibril network. The high negative fixed charge density of cartilage offers the unique opportunity to utilize electrostatic interactions to augment transport, binding and retention of drug carriers. With the goal of developing particle-based drug delivery mechanisms for treating post-traumatic osteoarthritis, our objectives were, first, to determine the size range of a variety of solutes that could penetrate and diffuse through normal cartilage and enzymatically treated cartilage to mimic early stages of OA, and second, to investigate the effects of electrostatic interactions on particle partitioning, uptake and binding within cartilage using the highly positively charged protein, Avidin, as a model. Results showed that solutes having a hydrodynamic diameter ?10 nm can penetrate into the full thickness of cartilage explants while larger sized solutes were trapped in the tissue's superficial zone. Avidin had a 400-fold higher uptake than its neutral same-sized counterpart, NeutrAvidin, and >90% of the absorbed Avidin remained within cartilage explants for at least 15 days. We report reversible, weak binding (K(D) ~ 150 ?M) of Avidin to intratissue sites in cartilage. The large effective binding site density (N(T) ~ 2920 ?M) within cartilage matrix facilitates Avidin's retention, making its structure suitable for particle based drug delivery into cartilage.

Longitudinal T2 Mapping and Texture Feature Analysis in the Detection and Monitoring of Experimental Post-Traumatic Cartilage Degeneration.

Project description:Traumatic cartilage injuries predispose articulating joints to focal cartilage defects and, eventually, posttraumatic osteoarthritis. Current clinical-standard imaging modalities such as morphologic MRI fail to reliably detect cartilage trauma and to monitor associated posttraumatic degenerative changes with oftentimes severe prognostic implications. Quantitative MRI techniques such as T2 mapping are promising in detecting and monitoring such changes yet lack sufficient validation in controlled basic research contexts. 35 macroscopically intact cartilage samples obtained from total joint replacements were exposed to standardized injurious impaction with low (0.49 J, n = 14) or high (0.98 J, n = 14) energy levels and imaged before and immediately, 24 h, and 72 h after impaction by T2 mapping. Contrast, homogeneity, energy, and variance were quantified as features of texture on each T2 map. Unimpacted controls (n = 7) and histologic assessment served as reference. As a function of impaction energy and time, absolute T2 values, contrast, and variance were significantly increased, while homogeneity and energy were significantly decreased. T2 mapping and texture feature analysis are sensitive diagnostic means to detect and monitor traumatic impaction injuries of cartilage and associated posttraumatic degenerative changes and may be used to assess cartilage after trauma to identify "cartilage at risk".
