Alternative Diagnosis of Epilepsy in Children Without Epileptiform Discharges Using Deep Convolutional Neural Networks.

International journal of neural systems
Numerous nonepileptic paroxysmal events, such as syncope and psychogenic nonepileptic seizures, may imitate seizures and impede diagnosis. Misdiagnosis can lead to mistreatment, affecting patients' lives considerably. Electroencephalography is common...

Enabling single-site laparoscopy: the SPORT platform.

Surgical endoscopy
BACKGROUND: The Single Port Orifice Robotic Technology (SPORT) Surgical System by Titan Medical Inc. is designed to overcome the inherent challenges of minimally invasive single-access procedures. The aim of this preclinical study was to evaluate the...

An EOG-based wheelchair robotic arm system for assisting patients with severe spinal cord injuries.

Journal of neural engineering
OBJECTIVE: In this study, we combine a wheelchair and an intelligent robotic arm based on an electrooculogram (EOG) signal to help patients with spinal cord injuries (SCIs) accomplish a self-drinking task. The main challenge is to accurately control ...

Performance of machine-learning algorithms to pattern recognition and classification of hearing impairment in Brazilian farmers exposed to pesticide and/or cigarette smoke.

Environmental science and pollution research international
The use of pesticides has been increasing in agriculture, leading to a public health problem. The aim of this study was to evaluate ototoxic effects in farmers who were exposed to cigarette smoke and/or pesticides and to identify possible classificat...

Automatic thyroid nodule recognition and diagnosis in ultrasound imaging with the YOLOv2 neural network.

World journal of surgical oncology
BACKGROUND: In this study, images of 2450 benign thyroid nodules and 2557 malignant thyroid nodules were collected and labeled, and an automatic image recognition and diagnosis system was established by deep learning using the YOLOv2 neural network. ...

Predicting patient-reported outcomes following hip and knee replacement surgery using supervised machine learning.

BMC medical informatics and decision making
BACKGROUND: Machine-learning classifiers mostly offer good predictive performance and are increasingly used to support shared decision-making in clinical practice. Focusing on performance and practicability, this study evaluates prediction of patient...

An Intelligent Sleep Apnea Classification System Based on EEG Signals.

Journal of medical systems
Sleep Apnea is a sleep disorder which causes stop in breathing for a short duration of time that happens to human beings and animals during sleep. Electroencephalogram (EEG) plays a vital role in detecting the sleep apnea by sensing and recording the...

Nasopharyngeal carcinoma segmentation based on enhanced convolutional neural networks using multi-modal metric learning.

Physics in medicine and biology
Multi-modality examinations have been extensively applied in current clinical cancer management. Leveraging multi-modality medical images can be highly beneficial for automated tumor segmentation as they provide complementary information that could m...
