Deep-learning-assisted analysis of echocardiographic videos improves predictions of all-cause mortality.

Nature biomedical engineering
Machine learning promises to assist physicians with predictions of mortality and of other future clinical events by learning complex patterns from historical data, such as longitudinal electronic health records. Here we show that a convolutional neur...

Restoration of sensory information via bionic hands.

Nature biomedical engineering
Individuals who have lost the use of their hands because of amputation or spinal cord injury can use prosthetic hands to restore their independence. A dexterous prosthesis requires the acquisition of control signals that drive the movements of the ro...

A data-driven dimensionality-reduction algorithm for the exploration of patterns in biomedical data.

Nature biomedical engineering
Dimensionality reduction is widely used in the visualization, compression, exploration and classification of data. Yet a generally applicable solution remains unavailable. Here, we report an accurate and broadly applicable data-driven algorithm for d...

A deep-learning system for the assessment of cardiovascular disease risk via the measurement of retinal-vessel calibre.

Nature biomedical engineering
Retinal blood vessels provide information on the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Here, we report the development and validation of deep-learning models for the automated measurement of retinal-vessel calibre in retinal photographs, using divers...

Integrating spatial gene expression and breast tumour morphology via deep learning.

Nature biomedical engineering
Spatial transcriptomics allows for the measurement of RNA abundance at a high spatial resolution, making it possible to systematically link the morphology of cellular neighbourhoods and spatially localized gene expression. Here, we report the develop...

Dense anatomical annotation of slit-lamp images improves the performance of deep learning for the diagnosis of ophthalmic disorders.

Nature biomedical engineering
The development of artificial intelligence algorithms typically demands abundant high-quality data. In medicine, the datasets that are required to train the algorithms are often collected for a single task, such as image-level classification. Here, w...

Robotically handled whole-tissue culture system for the screening of oral drug formulations.

Nature biomedical engineering
Monolayers of cancer-derived cell lines are widely used in the modelling of the gastrointestinal (GI) absorption of drugs and in oral drug development. However, they do not generally predict drug absorption in vivo. Here, we report a robotically hand...

Robotic fluidic coupling and interrogation of multiple vascularized organ chips.

Nature biomedical engineering
Organ chips can recapitulate organ-level (patho)physiology, yet pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic analyses require multi-organ systems linked by vascular perfusion. Here, we describe an 'interrogator' that employs liquid-handling robotics, custom s...

Patient-specific reconstruction of volumetric computed tomography images from a single projection view via deep learning.

Nature biomedical engineering
Tomographic imaging using penetrating waves generates cross-sectional views of the internal anatomy of a living subject. For artefact-free volumetric imaging, projection views from a large number of angular positions are required. Here we show that a...

Discrimination of the behavioural dynamics of visually impaired infants via deep learning.

Nature biomedical engineering
Sensory loss is associated with behavioural changes, but how behavioural dynamics change when a sensory modality is impaired remains unclear. Here, by recording under a designed standardized scenario, the behavioural phenotypes of 4,196 infants who e...
