INTRODUCTION: Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a complex inflammatory vasculopathy with diverse symptoms and variable disease progression. Despite its known impact on body composition (BC), clinical decision-making has yet to incorporate these biomarkers....
Procedural sedation is often performed by non-anesthesiologists in various settings and can lead to respiratory depression. A tool that enables early detection of respiratory compromise could not only enhance patient safety during procedural sedation...
BACKGROUND: Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) is a widely used standard for storing and exchanging health care data. At the same time, image-based artificial intelligence (AI) models for quantifying relevant body structures and organs...
BACKGROUND: CT attenuation correction (CTAC) scans are routinely obtained during cardiac perfusion imaging, but currently only used for attenuation correction and visual calcium estimation. We aimed to develop a novel artificial intelligence (AI)-bas...
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Low muscle mass (LMM) is a critical complication in patients with obesity and diabetes, exacerbating metabolic and cardiovascular risks. Novel obesity indices, such as the body roundness index (BRI), conicity index, and relative ...
Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM) refers to any degree of impaired glucose tolerance with onset or first recognition during pregnancy. As a high-prevalence disease, GDM damages the health of both pregnant women and fetuses in the short and long ter...
: Cancer and related treatments can impair body composition (BC), increasing the risk of malnutrition and sarcopenia, poor prognosis, and Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL). To enhance BC parameter interpretation through Bioelectrical Impedance A...
Sarcopenia and body composition metrics are strongly associated with patient outcomes. In this study, we developed and validated a flexible, open-access pipeline integrating available deep learning-based segmentation models with pre- and postprocessi...
