A dual encoder network with multiscale feature fusion and multiple pooling channel spatial attention for skin scar image segmentation.

Scientific reports
Skin scar is a prevalent dermatological concern that impacts both aesthetic appearance and psychological well-being, making precise delineation of scar tissue essential for clinical treatment. To address the challenge of scar image segmentation, this...

Investigating methods to enhance interpretability and performance in cardiac MRI for myocardial scarring diagnosis using convolutional neural network classification and One Match.

PloS one
Machine learning (ML) classification of myocardial scarring in cardiac MRI is often hindered by limited explainability, particularly with convolutional neural networks (CNNs). To address this, we developed One Match (OM), an algorithm that builds on ...

Development of an artificial intelligence system to indicate intraoperative findings of scarring in laparoscopic cholecystectomy for cholecystitis.

Surgical endoscopy
BACKGROUND: The surgical difficulty of laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) for acute cholecystitis (AC) and the risk of bile duct injury (BDI) depend on the degree of fibrosis and scarring caused by inflammation; therefore, understanding these intraope...

Deep learning approaches for the detection of scar presence from cine cardiac magnetic resonance adding derived parametric images.

Medical & biological engineering & computing
This work proposes a convolutional neural network (CNN) that utilizes different combinations of parametric images computed from cine cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) images, to classify each slice for possible myocardial scar tissue presence. The CNN...

Myocardial scar and left ventricular ejection fraction classification for electrocardiography image using multi-task deep learning.

Scientific reports
Myocardial scar (MS) and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) are vital cardiovascular parameters, conventionally determined using cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR). However, given the high cost and limited availability of CMR in resource-constra...

Machine and deep learning models for accurate detection of ischemia and scar with myocardial blood flow positron emission tomography imaging.

Journal of nuclear cardiology : official publication of the American Society of Nuclear Cardiology
BACKGROUND: Quantification of myocardial blood flow (MBF) is used for the noninvasive diagnosis of patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). This study compared traditional statistics, machine learning, and deep learning techniques in their abilit...

Robotic parathyroidectomy is a feasible technique for primary hyperparathyroidism.

Langenbeck's archives of surgery
PURPOSE: Focused parathyroidectomy is the gold standard treatment modality for primary hyperparathyroidism, which allows accurate preoperative localization. Robotic parathyroidectomy has emerged as a feasible procedure for focused parathyroidectomy. ...

A Comparison of Endoscope-Assisted and Open Frontoorbital Distraction for the Treatment of Unicoronal Craniosynostosis.

Plastic and reconstructive surgery
BACKGROUND: Frontoorbital distraction osteogenesis (FODO) is an established surgical technique for patients with unicoronal craniosynostosis. The authors' institution has used an endoscope-assisted technique (endo-FODO) in recent years to decrease cu...

Predicting the severity of postoperative scars using artificial intelligence based on images and clinical data.

Scientific reports
Evaluation of scar severity is crucial for determining proper treatment modalities; however, there is no gold standard for assessing scars. This study aimed to develop and evaluate an artificial intelligence model using images and clinical data to pr...

Near-infrared and hysteroscopy-guided robotic excision of uterine isthmocele with laser fiber: a novel high-precision technique.

Fertility and sterility
OBJECTIVE: To describe a novel high-precision technique for robotic excision of uterine isthmocele, employing a carbon dioxide laser fiber, under hysteroscopic guidance, and near-infrared guidance.
