Pseudo-pneumatosis of the gastrointestinal tract: its incidence and the accuracy of a checklist supported by artificial intelligence (AI) techniques to reduce the misinterpretation of pneumatosis.

Emergency radiology
PURPOSE: To assess the incidence of erroneous diagnosis of pneumatosis (pseudo-pneumatosis) in patients who underwent an emergency abdominal CT and to verify the performance of imaging features, supported by artificial intelligence (AI) techniques, t...

Automatic segmentation of pelvic organs-at-risk using a fusion network model based on limited training samples.

Acta oncologica (Stockholm, Sweden)
Efficient and accurate methods are needed to automatically segmenting organs-at-risk (OAR) to accelerate the radiotherapy workflow and decrease the treatment wait time. We developed and evaluated the use of a fused model Dense V-Network for its abil...

In Silico Prediction of Intestinal Permeability by Hierarchical Support Vector Regression.

International journal of molecular sciences
The vast majority of marketed drugs are orally administrated. As such, drug absorption is one of the important drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics parameters that should be assessed in the process of drug discovery and development. A nonlinear quant...

Robotic fluidic coupling and interrogation of multiple vascularized organ chips.

Nature biomedical engineering
Organ chips can recapitulate organ-level (patho)physiology, yet pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic analyses require multi-organ systems linked by vascular perfusion. Here, we describe an 'interrogator' that employs liquid-handling robotics, custom s...

OrgaQuant: Human Intestinal Organoid Localization and Quantification Using Deep Convolutional Neural Networks.

Scientific reports
Organoid cultures are proving to be powerful in vitro models that closely mimic the cellular constituents of their native tissue. Organoids are typically expanded and cultured in a 3D environment using either naturally derived or synthetic extracellu...

Automatic gas detection in prostate cancer patients during image-guided radiation therapy using a deep convolutional neural network.

Physica medica : PM : an international journal devoted to the applications of physics to medicine and biology : official journal of the Italian Association of Biomedical Physics (AIFB)
PURPOSE: The detection of intestinal/rectal gas is very important during image-guided radiation therapy (IGRT) of prostate cancer patients because intestinal/rectal gas increases the inter- and intra-fractional prostate motion. We propose a deep conv...

Performance of convolutional neural networks for identification of bacteria in 3D microscopy datasets.

PLoS computational biology
Three-dimensional microscopy is increasingly prevalent in biology due to the development of techniques such as multiphoton, spinning disk confocal, and light sheet fluorescence microscopies. These methods enable unprecedented studies of life at the m...

Effect of Remote Ischemic Preconditioning on Intestinal Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury in Adults Undergoing On-Pump CABG Surgery: A Randomized Controlled Pilot Trial.

Journal of cardiothoracic and vascular anesthesia
OBJECTIVE: Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) surgery commonly threatens the heart and remote organs with ischemia-reperfusion injury. Transient episodes of ischemia to nonvital tissue, known as remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC), is thought to help lo...

Regulatory efficacy of fermented plant extract on the intestinal microflora and lipid profile in mildly hypercholesterolemic individuals.

Journal of food and drug analysis
In recent years, the use of fermented plant products to protect against various metabolic syndromes has been increasing enormously. The objective of this study was to check the regulatory efficacy of fermented plant extract (FPE) on intestinal microf...
