BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) can be used to inversely model complex physical systems by encoding the governing partial differential equations and training data into the neural network. However, neural networks a...
To evaluate functional outcomes of robot-assisted ureteroplasty with labial mucosa grafting for long proximal ureteral stenosis (LPUS) in children and adolescents. Included in this study were 15 patients who underwent robot-assisted ureteroplasty w...

Machine learning (ML) techniques have shown great potential in cardiovascular surgery, including real-time stenosis recognition, detection of stented coronary anomalies, and prediction of in-stent restenosis (ISR). However, estimating neointima evolu...
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Double-balloon endoscopy (DBE) is widely used in diagnosing small-bowel Crohn's disease (CD). However, CD misdiagnosis frequently occurs if inexperienced endoscopists cannot accurately detect the lesions. The CD evaluation may al...

PURPOSE OF THE STUDY: Assessing the lower extremity arterial stenosis scores (LEASS) in patients with diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) is a challenging task that requires considerable time and efforts from physicians, and it may yield varying results. The p...
PURPOSE: The aim of study was to employ the Cycle Generative Adversarial Network (CycleGAN) deep learning model to diminish the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) flow artifacts in cervical spine MRI. We also evaluate the agreement in quantifying spinal canal...
We present a multi-stage neural network approach for 3D reconstruction of coronary artery trees from uncalibrated 2D X-ray angiography images. This method uses several binarized images from different angles to reconstruct a 3D coronary tree without a...
OBJECTIVES: Evaluation of in-stent restenosis (ISR), especially for small stents, remains challenging during computed tomography (CT) angiography. We used deep learning reconstruction to quantify stent strut thickness and lumen vessel diameter at the...
