The progress of research focused on cholangiocytes and the biliary tree during development and following injury is hindered by limited available quantitative methodologies. Current techniques include two-dimensional standard histological cell-countin...
Image-guided assessment of bile ducts and associated anatomy during laparoscopic cholecystectomy can be achieved with intra-operative cholangiography (IOC) or laparoscopic ultrasound (LUS). Rates of robotically assisted cholecystectomy (RC) are incre...
Certain life-threatening abnormalities, such as cholangiocarcinoma, in the human biliary tract are curable if detected at an early stage, and ultrasonography has been proven to be an effective tool for identifying them. However, the diagnosis often r...
BACKGROUND: Accurate prediction of radiation toxicity of healthy organs-at-risks (OARs) critically determines the radiation therapy (RT) success. The existing dose-volume histogram-based metric may grossly under/overestimate the therapeutic toxicity ...
While Artificial Intelligence (AI) has demonstrated human-level capabilities in many prediction tasks, collaboration between humans and machines is crucial in mission-critical applications, especially in the healthcare sector. An important factor tha...
