OBJECTIVES: Accurate evaluation of bowel fibrosis in patients with Crohn's disease (CD) remains challenging. Computed tomography enterography (CTE)-based radiomics enables the assessment of bowel fibrosis; however, it has some deficiencies. We aimed ...
Intestinal ischemia is a serious condition where the surgeon often has to make important but difficult decisions regarding resections and resection margins. Previous studies have shown that 3 h (hours) of warm full ischemia of the small bowel followe...
Cine-MRI of the abdomen is a non-invasive imaging technique allowing assessment of small intestinal motility. This is valuable for the evaluation of gastrointestinal disorders. While 2D cine-MRI is increasingly used for this purpose in both clinical ...
BACKGROUND: Difficulties in establishing diagnosis of small bowel (SB) disorders, prevented their effective treatment. This problem was largely resolved by wireless capsule endoscopy (WCE), which has since become the first line investigation for susp...
Acute intestinal ischemia is a life-threatening condition. The current gold standard, with evaluation based on visual and tactile sensation, has low specificity. In this study, we explore the feasibility of using machine learning models on images of ...

Quantitative phase imaging (QPI) is an emerging label-free technique that produces images containing morphological and dynamical information without contrast agents. Unfortunately, the phase is wrapped in most imaging system. Phase unwrapping is the ...
Artificial intelligence (AI) is predicted to have profound effects on the future of video capsule endoscopy (VCE) technology. The potential lies in improving anomaly detection while reducing manual labour. Existing work demonstrates the promising ben...
OBJECTIVES: Small bowel obstruction is a common surgical emergency which can lead to bowel necrosis, perforation and death. Plain abdominal X-rays are frequently used as a first-line test but the availability of immediate expert radiological review i...
