PURPOSE: Clinical needle insertion into tissue, commonly assisted by 2D ultrasound imaging for real-time navigation, faces the challenge of precise needle and probe alignment to reduce out-of-plane movement. Recent studies investigate 3D ultrasound i...
Analyzing tissue microstructure is essential for understanding complex biological systems in different species. Tissue functions largely depend on their intrinsic tissue architecture. Therefore, studying the three-dimensional (3D) microstructure of t...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Lifestyle intervention is the mainstay of therapy for metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH), and liver fibrosis is a key consequence of MASH that predicts adverse clinical outcomes. The placebo response plays a ...
Nanosized ultrafine particles (UFPs) from natural and anthropogenic sources are widespread and pose serious health risks when inhaled by humans. However, tracing the inhaled UFPs is extremely difficult, and the distribution, translocation, and metab...

As the adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) systems in radiology grows, the increase in demand for greater bandwidth and computational resources can lead to greater infrastructural costs for healthcare providers and AI vendors. To that end, we de...
BACKGROUND: Acetaminophen (APAP) is commonly used as an antipyretic analgesic. However, acetaminophen overdose may contribute to liver injury and even liver failure. Acetaminophen-induced liver injury (AILI) is closely related to mitochondrial oxidat...

BACKGROUND: Several factors can impair image quality and reliability of liver magnetic resonance elastography (MRE), such as inadequate driver positioning, insufficient wave propagation and patient-related factors.
BACKGROUND: Ultrasound image examination has become the preferred choice for diagnosing metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) due to its non-invasive nature. Computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) technology can assist doctors in a...
