The use of machine learning in biomedical research has surged in recent years thanks to advances in devices and artificial intelligence. Our aim is to expand this body of knowledge by applying machine learning to pulmonary auscultation signals. Despi...
Respiration; international review of thoracic diseases
Nov 30, 2023
INTRODUCTION: Robot-assisted navigation bronchoscopy (RANB) has been gaining traction as a new technology for minimally invasive biopsies of peripheral pulmonary lesions (PPLs). Cryobiopsy is an established method of procuring satisfactory lung tissu...
BACKGROUND: To evaluate the short-term efficacy, lung function, and oxidative stress levels between the robotic-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (RATS) and video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery group (VATS) for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

BACKGROUND: Point-of-care lung ultrasound (LUS) allows real-time patient scanning to help diagnose pleural effusion (PE) and plan further investigation and treatment. LUS typically requires training and experience from the clinician to accurately int...
OBJECTIVES: Parametric response mapping (PRM) enables the evaluation of small airway disease (SAD) at the voxel level, but requires both inspiratory and expiratory chest CT scans. We hypothesize that deep learning PRM from inspiratory chest CT scans ...
