OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effectiveness of a simple positioning aid device in neck CT scans for the diagnosis of thyroid cancer, with a focus on its influence on image quality and diagnostic accuracy.
BACKGROUND: CDK4/6 inhibitors plus aromatase inhibitors (AI) significantly improve the therapeutic effect of initial treatment for HR + /HER2- advanced breast cancer. However, there is a lack of head-to-head randomized controlled trials involving the...
BACKGROUND: In people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) on inhaled corticosteroid/long-acting β-agonist (ICS/LABA) therapy, the Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) recommends stepping up to ICS/long-acting mu...
BACKGROUND: Orthodontically induced root resorption (OIRR) is difficult to assess accurately using traditional 2D imaging due to distortion and low sensitivity. While CBCT offers more precise 3D evaluation, manual segmentation remains labor-intensive...
PURPOSE: Non-Proliferative Diabetic Retinopathy (NPDR) is a complication of diabetes disease where there is damage of the blood vessels in retina but with no signs of formation of new vessels. It is present in the earlier stages and therefore the con...

Since the turn of the millennium, computational modelling of biological systems has evolved remarkably and sees matured use spanning basic and clinical research. While the topic of the peri-millennial debate about the virtues and limitations of 'redu...
Supracondylar humerus fractures in children are among the most common elbow fractures in pediatrics. However, their diagnosis can be particularly challenging due to the anatomical characteristics and imaging features of the pediatric skeleton. In rec...
Closed pelvic fractures can lead to severe complications, including hemodynamic instability (HI) and mortality. Accurate prediction of these risks is crucial for effective clinical management. This study aimed to utilize various machine learning (ML)...
SIGNIFICANCE: Automated segmentation of periarterial and perivenous capillary-free zones (CFZs) in optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) can significantly improve early detection and monitoring of diabetic retinopathy (DR), a leading cause ...
