Deep multiphysics: Coupling discrete multiphysics with machine learning to attain self-learning in-silico models replicating human physiology.

Artificial intelligence in medicine
OBJECTIVES: The objective of this study is to devise a modelling strategy for attaining in-silico models replicating human physiology and, in particular, the activity of the autonomic nervous system.

Deep Learning-Based Delineation of Head and Neck Organs at Risk: Geometric and Dosimetric Evaluation.

International journal of radiation oncology, biology, physics
PURPOSE: Organ-at-risk (OAR) delineation is a key step in treatment planning but can be time consuming, resource intensive, subject to variability, and dependent on anatomical knowledge. We studied deep learning (DL) for automated delineation of mult...

Adversarial training with cycle consistency for unsupervised super-resolution in endomicroscopy.

Medical image analysis
In recent years, endomicroscopy has become increasingly used for diagnostic purposes and interventional guidance. It can provide intraoperative aids for real-time tissue characterization and can help to perform visual investigations aimed for example...

Triple-stapled quadrilateral anastomosis: a new technique for creation of an esophagogastric anastomosis.

Esophagus : official journal of the Japan Esophageal Society
BACKGROUND: Esophagogastric anastomosis performed after esophagectomy is technically complex and often the source of postoperative complications. The best technique for this anastomosis remains a matter of debate. We describe a new all-stapled side-t...

Esophagus segmentation in CT via 3D fully convolutional neural network and random walk.

Medical physics
PURPOSE: Precise delineation of organs at risk is a crucial task in radiotherapy treatment planning for delivering high doses to the tumor while sparing healthy tissues. In recent years, automated segmentation methods have shown an increasingly high ...

Early Experience of Robot-Assisted Esophagectomy With Circular End-to-End Stapled Anastomosis.

The Annals of thoracic surgery
BACKGROUND: Surgical resection is a critical element in the treatment of esophageal cancer. Esophagectomy is technically challenging and is associated with high morbidity and mortality rates. Efforts to reduce these rates have spurred the adoption of...

Artificial intelligence-assisted endoscopic ultrasound diagnosis of esophageal subepithelial lesions.

Surgical endoscopy
BACKGROUND: Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) is one of the most accurate methods for determining the originating layer of subepithelial lesions (SELs). However, the accuracy is greatly influenced by the expertise and proficiency of the endoscopist. In thi...

Application of deep learning models in the pathological classification and staging of esophageal cancer: A focus on Wave-Vision Transformer.

World journal of gastroenterology
BACKGROUND: Esophageal cancer is the sixth most common cancer worldwide, with a high mortality rate. Early prognosis of esophageal abnormalities can improve patient survival rates. The progression of esophageal cancer follows a sequence from esophagi...
