OBJECTIVE: To determine whether nailfold capillary images, acquired using video capillaroscopy, can provide diagnostic information about diabetes and its complications.
OBJECTIVES: Nailfold capillaroscopy is key to timely diagnosis of SSc, but is often not used in rheumatology clinics because the images are difficult to interpret. We aimed to develop and validate a fully automated image analysis system to fill this ...

BACKGROUND: Interstitial inflammation and peritubular capillaritis are observed in many diseases on native and transplant kidney biopsies. A precise and automated evaluation of these histological criteria could help stratify patients' kidney prognose...

INTRODUCTION: The stria vascularis (SV) may have a significant role in various otologic pathologies. Currently, researchers manually segment and analyze the stria vascularis to measure structural atrophy. Our group developed a tool, SVPath, that uses...
Biomarkers for discrimination among different subgroups of idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM) are difficult to identify and may involve multiple laboratory tests and time-consuming procedures. We assessed the potential for artificial intelligen...
Diseases like bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) affect the development of the pulmonary vasculature, including the alveolar capillary network (ACN). Since pulmonary development is highly dependent on angiogenesis and microvascular maturation, ACN inve...
Nailfold Capillaroscopy (NFC) is a simple, non-invasive diagnostic tool used to detect microvascular changes in nailfold. Chronic pathological changes associated with a wide range of systemic diseases, such as diabetes, cardiovascular disorders, and ...
This study developed a novel binary classification method for analyzing nailfold capillary images associated with the risk of developing sclerosis. The proposed approach combined a Sugeno fuzzy integral inference system with an ensemble of convolutio...
SIGNIFICANCE: Automated segmentation of periarterial and perivenous capillary-free zones (CFZs) in optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) can significantly improve early detection and monitoring of diabetic retinopathy (DR), a leading cause ...
