Multi-instance learning (MIL) is widely adop- ted for automatic whole slide image (WSI) analysis and it usually consists of two stages, i.e., instance feature extraction and feature aggregation. However, due to the "weak supervision" of slide-level l...
BACKGROUND: An empirical selective clamping strategy based on the direction of the arterial branches can lead to failures during partial nephrectomy, even when assisted by three-dimensional virtual models (3DVMs).
Recovery from acute kidney injury can vary widely in patients and in animal models. Immunofluorescence staining can provide spatial information about heterogeneous injury responses, but often only a fraction of stained tissue is analyzed. Deep learni...
BACKGROUND: The RENAL nephrometry score (RNS) is widely used to describe renal mass complexity and inform patient counseling for partial nephrectomy (PN). However, in cases with multiple tumors, it is unknown which features drive perioperative outcom...
Trends of kidney cancer cases worldwide are expected to increase persistently and this inspires the modification of the traditional diagnosis system to respond to future challenges. Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC) is the most common kidney cancer and resp...
Digital pathology is vital for the correct diagnosis of kidney before transplantation or kidney disease identification. One of the key challenges in kidney diagnosis is glomerulus detection in kidney tissue segments. In this study, we propose a deep ...

PURPOSE: Given the potential risk of motion artifacts, acquisition time reduction is desirable in pediatric Tc-dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA) scintigraphy. The aim of this study was to evaluate the performance of predicted full-acquisition-time imag...
The surgical video demonstrates the technical nuances of performing pyeloplasties on complex renal anomalies, including duplex, horseshoe, malrotated, and ectopic kidneys. The video also highlights the anatomic relationships of the affected kidney fo...
Morphological alterations at the kidney filtration barrier increase intrinsic capillary wall permeability resulting in albuminuria. However, automated, quantitative assessment of these morphological changes has not been possible with electron or ligh...
