To develop a robust segmentation model, encoding the underlying features/structures of the input data is essential to discriminate the target structure from the background. To enrich the extracted feature maps, contrastive learning and self-learning ...
BACKGROUND: Living kidney donors are screened pre-donation to estimate the risk of end-stage kidney disease (ESKD). We evaluate Machine Learning (ML) to predict the progression of kidney function deterioration over time using the estimated GFR (eGFR)...

OBJECTIVE: Histotripsy is a focused ultrasound therapy that ablates tissue via the action of bubble clouds. It is under investigation to treat a number of ailments, including renal tumors. Ultrasound imaging is used to monitor histotripsy, though the...
Differential kidney function assessment is an important part of preoperative evaluation of various urological interventions. It is obtained through dedicated nuclear medical imaging and is not yet implemented through conventional Imaging. We assess...

KEY POINTS: A dynamic model predicts IgA nephropathy prognosis based on deep learning. Longitudinal clinical data and deep learning improve predictive accuracy and interpretability in GN.
In robot-assisted surgery, in which haptics should be absent, surgeons experience haptics-like sensations as "pseudo-haptic feedback". As surgeons who routinely perform robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery, we wondered if we could make these "pseudo-h...

OBJECTIVES: Adherent perinephric fat (APF) poses significant challenges to surgical procedures. This study aimed to evaluate the usefulness of machine learning algorithms combined with MRI-based radiomics features for predicting the presence of APF.
Osteoporosis is a common condition that can lead to fractures, mobility issues, and death. Although dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is the gold standard for osteoporosis, it is expensive and not widely available. In contrast, kidney-ureter-bla...
