Acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL), which is due to the malfunctioning in the bone marrow, is common among people all over the world. The haematologist suffers a lot to discriminate the presence of leukaemia in the patients using the blood smears. T...
Bioprosthetic heart valves (BHVs) are commonly used as heart valve replacements but they are prone to fatigue failure; estimating their remaining life directly from medical images is difficult. Analyzing the valve performance can provide better guida...
Pseudoenzymes are proteins that are evolutionary related to enzymes but lack relevant catalytic activity. They are usually evolved from enzymatic ancestors that have lost their catalytic activities. The loss of catalytic function is one extreme among...
BACKGROUND: Axillary lymph node status is important for breast cancer staging and treatment planning as the majority of breast cancer metastasis spreads through the axillary lymph nodes. There is currently no reliable noninvasive imaging method to de...
Computer systems for medical diagnosis based on machine learning are not mere science fiction. Despite undisputed potential benefits, such systems may also raise problems. Two (interconnected) issues are particularly significant from an ethical point...

PURPOSE: Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation testing has several limitations. Therefore, we built predictive models to determine the EGFR mutation status of patients and guide therapeutic decision-making.
Twin-to-Twin Transfusion Syndrome is commonly treated with minimally invasive laser surgery in fetoscopy. The inter-foetal membrane is used as a reference to find abnormal anastomoses. Membrane identification is a challenging task due to small field ...
BACKGROUND: Screening for Barrett's Oesophagus (BE) relies on endoscopy which is invasive and has a low yield. This study aimed to develop and externally validate a simple symptom and risk-factor questionnaire to screen for patients with BE.
