Learning the anatomical topology consistency driven by Wasserstein distance for weakly supervised 3D pancreas registration in multi-phase CT images.

Biomedical physics & engineering express Jan 16, 2026

Accurate and automatic registration of the pancreas between contrast-enhanced CT (CECT) and non-contrast CT (NCCT) images is crucial for diagnosing and treating pancreatic cancer. However, existing deep learning-based methods remain limited due to in... read more

Magnetic resonance imaging-based proton dose calculation for pelvic tumors using deep learning.

Physics in medicine and biology Jan 16, 2026

Objective Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-only proton therapy combines high soft tissue contrast with high-precision dose distributions. However, conventional dose calculation is impossible on MRI due to missing electron density information. Thi... read more

Institution-specific pre-treatment quality assurance control and specification limits: a tool to implement a new formalism and criteria optimization using statistical process control and heuristic methods.

Physics in medicine and biology Jan 16, 2026

OBJECTIVE: Establishing control and specification limits for Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy (VMAT) pre-treatment quality assurance (PTQA) is essential for streamlining PTQA workflows and optimizing plan complexity. This study aimed to develop and i... read more

Unlocking the potential of nailfold videocapillaroscopy in diagnosing and staging wild-type transthyretin amyloidosis: A preliminary approach.

Medicina clinica Jan 16, 2026

BACKGROUND: Wild-type transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTRwt) is a serious condition. At early stages, symptoms resemble those of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Our aim was to perform software-supported nailfold videocapillaroscop... read more

Multisite, External Validation of an AI-Enabled ECG Algorithm for Detection of Low Ejection Fraction.

JACC. Advances Jan 16, 2026

BACKGROUND: Low left ventricular ejection fraction (LEF) can progress undiagnosed. Artificial intelligence-based electrocardiogram (ECG-AI) screening may provide a scalable means to detect LEF. OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to validate a ... read more

Potential link between dioxin induced progression of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma: New insights from machine learning and in vitro experiments.

Ecotoxicology and environmental safety Jan 16, 2026

BACKGROUND: Dioxin has emerged as a major and modifiable determinant of tumor burden worldwide. Building on this premise, we investigated whether dioxin-interacting genes (DIGs) are connected to diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and sought genes ... read more
