OBJECTIVES: Accurate kidney and tumor segmentation of computed tomography (CT) scans is vital for diagnosis and treatment, but manual methods are time-consuming and inconsistent, highlighting the value of AI automation. This study develops a fully au...
The response of the kidney after induction treatment is one of the determinants of prognosis in lupus nephritis, but effective predictive tools are lacking. Here, we sought to apply deep learning approaches on kidney biopsies for treatment response p...

The presence of tubular casts within the kidney serves as an important feature when assessing the degree of renal injury. Quantification of renal tubular casts has been historically difficult due to varying cast morphologies, protein composition, and...
UNLABELLED: Although the link between ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) and T cell-mediated rejection (TCMR) in kidney transplantation (KT) is well known, the mechanism remains unclear. We investigated essential genes and biological processes involve...
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: To develop an interpretable deep learning (XDL) model based on superb microvascular imaging (SMI) for the noninvasive diagnosis of the degree of interstitial fibrosis (IF) in chronic kidney disease (CKD).
BACKGROUND: The effect of renal impairment in patients who receive intravenous thrombolysis for acute ischemic stroke (AIS) is unclear. We aimed to determine the associations of renal impairment and clinical outcomes and any modification of the effec...
Post-transplant allograft fibrosis remains a challenge in prolonging allograft survival. Regulated cell death has been widely implicated in various kidney diseases, including renal fibrosis. However, the role of different regulated cell death (RCD) ...

BACKGROUND/INTRODUCTION: To evaluate the performance of pre-trained deep learning schemes (DLS) in hepatic steatosis (HS) grading of Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) patients, using as input B-mode US images containing right kidney (RK) cort...
This paper presents an enhanced approach to kidney segmentation using a modified CLAHE preprocessing method, aimed at improving image clarity and CNN performance on the KiTS19 dataset. To assess the impact of the modified CLAHE method, we conducted q...
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to assess the predictive capabilities of a radiomics signature obtained from arterial spin labeling (ASL) imaging in forecasting and detecting stages of kidney damage in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM), as we...
