Adversarial cycle-consistent synthesis of cerebral microbleeds for data augmentation
We propose a novel framework for controllable pathological image synthesis for data augmentation. Inspired by CycleGAN, we perform cycle-consistent image-to-image translation between two domains: healthy and pathological. Guided by a semantic mask, an adversarially trained generator synthesizes pathology on a healthy image in the specified location. We demonstrate our approach on an institutional dataset of cerebral microbleeds in traumatic brain injury patients. We utilize synthetic images generated with our method for data augmentation in cerebral microbleeds detection. Enriching the training dataset with synthetic images exhibits the potential to increase detection performance for cerebral microbleeds in traumatic brain injury patients.

Review of methods for automatic cerebral microbleeds detection
Cerebral microbleeds detection is an important and challenging task. With the gaining popularity of the MRI, the ability to detect cerebral microbleeds also raises. Unfortunately, for radiologists, it is a time-consuming…
Cerebral microbleeds: Association with cognitive decline and pathology build-up
Cerebral microbleeds, markers of brain damage from vascular and amyloid pathologies, are linked to cognitive decline in aging, but their role in Alzheimer's disease (AD) onset and progression remains unclear. This study …
DiagnosticMixMicrobleed: Multi-stage detection and segmentation of cerebral microbleeds
Cerebral microbleeds are small, dark, round lesions that can be visualised on T2*-weighted MRI or other sequences sensitive to susceptibility effects. In this work, we propose a multi-stage approach to both microbleed de…
SegmentationMixMicrobleedNet: segmentation of cerebral microbleeds using nnU-Net
Cerebral microbleeds are small hypointense lesions visible on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with gradient echo, T2*, or susceptibility weighted (SWI) imaging. Assessment of cerebral microbleeds is mostly performed by …
