Robotic Extended Ultrasound-Guided Distal Pancreatectomy for Pancreatic Metastases from Uveal Melanoma.

Annals of surgical oncology
BACKGROUND: Isolated pancreatic metastasis from melanoma is extremely uncommon and accounts for approximately only 2% of visceral disseminations of melanoma. Interestingly, pancreatic localizations disproportionately derive from primary ocular melano...

Biomimetic sharkskin surfaces with antibacterial, cytocompatible, and drug delivery properties.

Biomaterials advances
Fighting with the infection is one of the most challenging and costly burdens of the healthcare system. Several types of antibiotics and antibacterial agents have been designed and used in combating this dilemma. Nevertheless, the overuse of drugs an...

An end-to-end approach to segmentation in medical images with CNN and posterior-CRF.

Medical image analysis
Conditional Random Fields (CRFs) are often used to improve the output of an initial segmentation model, such as a convolutional neural network (CNN). Conventional CRF approaches in medical imaging use manually defined features, such as intensity to i...

DeepLesionBrain: Towards a broader deep-learning generalization for multiple sclerosis lesion segmentation.

Medical image analysis
Recently, segmentation methods based on Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) showed promising performance in automatic Multiple Sclerosis (MS) lesions segmentation. These techniques have even outperformed human experts in controlled evaluation condit...

Direct left-ventricular global longitudinal strain (GLS) computation with a fully convolutional network.

Journal of biomechanics
This study's purpose was to develop a direct MRI-based, deep-learning semantic segmentation approach for computing global longitudinal strain (GLS), a known metric for detecting left-ventricular (LV) cardiotoxicity in breast cancer. Displacement Enco...

A computer-aided drug design approach to discover tumour suppressor p53 protein activators for colorectal cancer therapy.

Bioorganic & medicinal chemistry
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most detected cancer and the second foremost cause of cancer deaths in the world. Intervention targeting p53 provides potential therapeutic strategies, but thus far no p53-based therapy has been successfully trans...

Use of robots to encourage social engagement between older adults.

Geriatric nursing (New York, N.Y.)
We designed a robotic architecture system within a commercially available socially assistive robot to engage pairs of older adults in multimodal activities over 3 weeks for 6 sessions. The study took place in two assisted living facilities. Seven pai...

Displacement detection with sub-pixel accuracy and high spatial resolution using deep learning.

Journal of medical ultrasonics (2001)
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to detect two dimensional and sub-pixel displacement with high spatial resolution using an ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus. Conventional displacement detection methods assume neighborhood uniformity and cannot a...

Evaluation of Deep Neural Network ProSPr for Accurate Protein Distance Predictions on CASP14 Targets.

International journal of molecular sciences
The field of protein structure prediction has recently been revolutionized through the introduction of deep learning. The current state-of-the-art tool AlphaFold2 can predict highly accurate structures; however, it has a prohibitively long inference ...
