Shape Over Intensity: Directional Topological Encoding for False Positive Reduction in Intracranial Aneurysm Detection
Automated detection of intracranial aneurysms (IAs) from CT angiography (CTA) is severely hindered by high false-positive rates. Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) rely on local pixel intensities, causing systematic confusion between saccular aneurysms and vascular bifurcations…
