BACKGROUND: Microvascular invasion (MVI) stands as a pivotal pathological hallmark of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), closely linked to unfavorable prognosis, early recurrence, and metastatic progression. However, the precise mechanistic underpinning...
The precise segmentation of retinal vasculature is crucial for the early screening of various eye diseases, such as diabetic retinopathy and hypertensive retinopathy. Given the complex and variable overall structure of retinal vessels and their delic...
Skin microvasculature is vital for human cardiovascular health and thermoregulation, but its imaging and analysis presents significant challenges. Statistical methods such as speckle decorrelation in optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) of...
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).
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to develop a radiomics model characterized by Ga-fibroblast activation protein inhibitors (FAPI) positron emission tomography (PET) imaging to predict microvascular invasion (MVI) of hepatocellular carcinoma...
