    Adaptive Resizer-Based Transfer Learning Framework for the Diagnosis of Breast Cancer Using Histopathology Images
    (Springer, 2023) Düzyel, Okan; Çatal, Mehmet Sergen; Kayan, Ceyhun Efe; Sevinç, Arda; Gümüş, Abdurrahman
    Breast cancer is a major global health concern, and early and accurate diagnosis is crucial for effective treatment. Recent advancements in computer-assisted prediction models have facilitated diagnosis and prognosis using high-resolution histopathology images, which provide detailed information on cancerous tissue. However, these high-resolution images often require resizing, leading to potential data loss. In this study, we demonstrate the effect of a learnable adaptive resizer for breast cancer classification using the BreakHis dataset. Our approach incorporates the adaptive resizer with various convolutional neural network models, including VGG16, VGG19, MobileNetV2, InceptionResnetV2, DenseNet121, DenseNet201, and EfficientNetB0. Despite producing visually less appealing images, the learnable resizer effectively improves classification performance. DenseNet201, when jointly trained with the adaptive resizer, achieves the highest accuracy of 98.96% for input images of 448x448 resolution. Our experimental results demonstrate that the adaptive resizer performs better at a magnification factor of 40x compared to higher magnifications. While its effectiveness becomes less pronounced as image resolution increases to 100x, 200x, and 400x, the adaptive resizer still outperforms bilinear interpolation. In conclusion, this study highlights the potential of adaptive resizers in enhancing performance for medical image classification. By outperforming traditional image resizing methods, our work contributes to the advancement of deep neural networks in the field of breast cancer diagnostics.

    Real-Time Superficial Vein Imaging System for Observing Abnormalities on Vascular Structures
    (Springer, 2023) Altay, Ayşe; Gümüş, Abdurrahman
    Circulatory system abnormalities might be an indicator of diseases or tissue damage. Early detection of vascular abnormalities might have an important role during treatment and also raise the patient's awareness. Current detection methods for vascular imaging are high-cost, invasive, and mostly radiation-based. In this study, a low-cost and portable microcomputer-based tool has been developed as a Near-Infrared (NIR) superficial vascular imaging device. The device uses NIR Light-Emitting Diode (LED) light at 850 nm along with other electronic and optical components. It operates as a non-contact and safe infrared (IR) imaging method in real-time. Image and video analysis are carried out using OpenCV (Open-Source Computer Vision), a library of programming functions mainly used in computer vision. Various tests were carried out to optimize the imaging system and set up a suitable external environment. To test the performance of the device, the images taken from three diabetic volunteers, who are expected to have abnormalities in the vascular structure due to the possibility of deformation caused by high glucose levels in the blood, were compared with the images taken from two non-diabetic volunteers. As a result, tortuosity was observed successfully in the superficial vascular structures, where the results need to be interpreted by the medical experts in the field to understand the underlying reasons. Although this study is an engineering study and does not have an intention to diagnose any diseases, the developed system here might assist healthcare personnel in early diagnosis and treatment follow-up for vascular structures and may enable further opportunities.
