    Abstract: The current disclosure provides systems and methods for automatic image alignment of three-dimensional (3D) medical image volumes. The method includes pre-processing the 3D medical image volume by selecting a sub-volume of interest, detecting anatomical landmarks in the sub-volume using a deep neural network, estimating transformation parameters based on the anatomical landmarks to adjust rotation angles and translation of the sub-volume, adjusting the rotation angles and translation to produce a first aligned sub-volume, determining confidence in the transformation parameters based on the first aligned sub-volume, and iteratively refining the transformation parameters if the confidence is below a predetermined threshold. The disclosed approach for automated image alignment reduces the need for manual alignment and, increases a probability of the 3D image volume converging to a desired orientation compared to conventional approaches.

    Abstract: Systems/techniques that facilitate interpretable task-specific dimensionality-reduction are provided. In various embodiments, a system can access a three-dimensional medical image. In various aspects, the system can generate, via execution of a first deep learning neural network, a voxel-wise weight map corresponding to the three-dimensional medical image and a set of projection vectors corresponding to the three-dimensional medical image. In various instances, the system can generate a set of two-dimensional projection images of the three-dimensional medical image, based on the voxel-wise weight map and the set of projection vectors. In various cases, the first deep learning neural network can be trained in a serial pipeline with a second deep learning neural network that is configured to perform an inferencing task on two-dimensional inputs. This can cause the set of two-dimensional projection images to be tailored to the inferencing task.

    Abstract: Systems/techniques that facilitate explainable confidence estimation for landmark localization are provided. In various embodiments, a system can access a three-dimensional voxel array captured by a medical imaging scanner and can localize, via execution of a first deep learning neural network, a set of anatomical landmarks depicted in the three-dimensional voxel array. In various aspects, the system can generate a multi-tiered confidence score collection based on the set of anatomical landmarks and based on a training dataset on which the first deep learning neural network was trained. In various instances, the system can, in response to one or more confidence scores from the multi-tiered confidence score collection failing to satisfy a threshold, generate, via execution of a second deep learning neural network, a classification label that indicates an explanatory factor for why the one or more confidence scores failed to satisfy the threshold.

    Abstract: The current disclosure provides methods and systems to reduce an amount of structured and unstructured noise in image data. Specifically, a multi-stage deep learning method is provided, comprising training a deep learning network using a set of training pairs interchangeably including input data from a first noisy dataset with a first noise level and target data from a second noisy dataset with a second noise level, and input data from the second noisy dataset and target data from the first noisy dataset; generating an ultra-low noise data equivalent based on a low noise data fed into the trained deep learning network; and retraining the deep learning network on the set of training pairs using the target data of the set of training pairs in a first retraining step, and using the ultra-low noise data equivalent as target data in a second retraining step.
