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...
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...

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...
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...
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...

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...
Recent advances in large-scale single-cell RNA-seq enable fine-grained characterization of phenotypically distinct cellular states in heterogeneous tissues. We present scScope, a scalable deep-learning-based approach that can accurately and rapidly i...
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...

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...
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...
