Semi-supervised manifold learning with affinity regularization for Alzheimer's disease identification using positron emission tomography imaging.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Dementia, Alzheimer's disease (AD) in particular is a global problem and big threat to the aging population. An image based computer-aided dementia diagnosis method is needed to providing doctors help during medical image examination. Many machine le...

[NEW METHOD OF PARTIAL NEPHRECTOMY WITH SELECTIVE PARENCHYMA CLAMPING].

Vestnik khirurgii imeni I. I. Grekova
The authors suggested a new method of performance of open, laparoscopic and robot-assisted partial nephrectomy using specially developed instruments for selective parenchyma clamping in order to improve the functional results of renal cell carcinoma ...

Mining nutrigenetics patterns related to obesity: use of parallel multifactor dimensionality reduction.

International journal of bioinformatics research and applications
This paper aims to enlighten the complex etiology beneath obesity by analysing data from a large nutrigenetics study, in which nutritional and genetic factors associated with obesity were recorded for around two thousand individuals. In our previous ...

Management of Endometrial Cancer: A Review.

Reviews on recent clinical trials
Endometrial cancer is the most common malignancy of the female genital tract in developed countries and second to cervical cancer in India. Endometrial cancer predominately affects post menopausal women; however 15-25% of cases are diagnosed before m...

Do post-stroke patients benefit from robotic verticalization? A pilot-study focusing on a novel neurophysiological approach.

Restorative neurology and neuroscience
BACKGROUND: Tilt-table equipped with the dynamic foot-support (ERIGO) and the functional electric stimulation could be a safe and suitable device for stabilization of vital signs, increasing patient's motivation for further recovery, decreasing the d...

Classification of focal liver lesions on ultrasound images by extracting hybrid textural features and using an artificial neural network.

Bio-medical materials and engineering
This paper focuses on the improvement of the diagnostic accuracy of focal liver lesions by quantifying the key features of cysts, hemangiomas, and malignant lesions on ultrasound images. The focal liver lesions were divided into 29 cysts, 37 hemangio...

Identification of Conversion from Normal Elderly Cognition to Alzheimer's Disease using Multimodal Support Vector Machine.

Journal of Alzheimer's disease : JAD
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is one of the most serious progressive neurodegenerative diseases among the elderly, therefore the identification of conversion to AD at the earlier stage has become a crucial issue. In this study, we applied multimodal suppo...

Applying Automated MR-Based Diagnostic Methods to the Memory Clinic: A Prospective Study.

Journal of Alzheimer's disease : JAD
Several studies have demonstrated that fully automated pattern recognition methods applied to structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) aid in the diagnosis of dementia, but these conclusions are based on highly preselected samples that significant...

Neuropsychological test selection for cognitive impairment classification: A machine learning approach.

Journal of clinical and experimental neuropsychology
INTRODUCTION: Reducing the amount of testing required to accurately detect cognitive impairment is clinically relevant. The aim of this research was to determine the fewest number of clinical measures required to accurately classify participants as h...
