BACKGROUND: Distinguishing gastric epithelial regeneration change from dysplasia and histopathological diagnosis of dysplasia is subject to interobserver disagreement in endoscopic specimens. In this study, we developed a method to distinguish gastri...
Pathologists use visual classification to assess patient kidney biopsy samples when diagnosing the underlying cause of kidney disease. However, the assessment is qualitative, or semi-quantitative at best, and reproducibility is challenging. To discov...
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Chronic hepatitis B virus (CHB) infection remains a major global health burden and the non-invasive and accurate diagnosis of significant liver fibrosis (≥ F2) in CHB patients is clinically very important. This study aimed to ass...
Endomyocardial biopsy (EMB) screening represents the standard of care for detecting allograft rejections after heart transplant. Manual interpretation of EMBs is affected by substantial interobserver and intraobserver variability, which often leads t...
There has been an increasing role of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the management of prostate cancer. MRI already plays an essential role in the detection and staging, with the introduction of functional MRI sequences. Recent advancements in ra...

The development of label-free non-destructive techniques to be used as diagnostic tools in cancer research is of great importance for improving the quality of life for millions of patients. Previous studies have demonstrated that Third Harmonic Gener...
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES: This study aims to investigate the relationship between perineural invasion (PNI) in targeted (TBx) and/or systematic (SBx) prostate needle biopsy and adverse pathological features of prostate cancer (PCa) in prostatectom...
For years, hepatologists have been seeking non-invasive methods able to detect significant liver fibrosis. However, no previous algorithm using routine blood markers has proven to be clinically appropriate in primary care. We present a novel approach...
