Accurate liver lesion segmentation in ultrasound is a challenging task due to high speckle noise, ambiguous lesion boundaries, and inhomogeneous intensity distribution inside the lesion regions. This work first collected and annotated a dataset for l...
The segmentation of liver margins in computed tomography (CT) images presents significant challenges due to the complex anatomical variability of the liver, with critical implications for medical diagnostics and treatment planning. In this study, we ...
BACKGROUND: Butyrate may inhibit SARS-CoV-2 replication and affect the development of COVID-19. However, there have been no systematic comprehensive analyses of the role of butyrate metabolism-related genes (BMRGs) in COVID-19.
Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is a major cause of drug development failures and postmarket drug withdrawals, posing significant challenges to public health and pharmaceutical research. The biological mechanisms leading to DILI are highly complex a...
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is an exceedingly aggressive form of cancer that often carries a poor prognosis, especially when it is complicated by the presence of microvascular invasion (MVI). Identifying patients at high risk of MVI is crucial for...
