BACKGROUND: In the prognosis of breast cancer, the status of axillary lymph nodes (ALN) is critically important. While traditional axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) provides comprehensive information, it is associated with high risks. Sentinel ly...
To verify the capability of the Segment Anything Model for medical images in 3D (SAM-Med3D), tailored with low-rank adaptation (LoRA) strategies, in segmenting breast tumors in Automated Breast Ultrasound (ABUS) images. This retrospective study colle...
This work presents an embedded solution for detecting and classifying head-level objects using stereo vision to assist blind individuals. A custom dataset was created, featuring five classes of head-level objects, selected based on a survey of visual...
The absence of specific markers makes early detection of bladder cancer (BC) challenging. Recent studies have reported the reliable diagnostic significance of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in several cancers. This study aimed to investigate wheth...

This study aims to investigate the feasibility of a single general model to synthesize CT images across body sites, thorax, abdomen, and pelvis, to support treatment planning for MRI-only radiotherapy. A total of 157 patients who received MRI-guided ...
BACKGROUND: Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor-related Pneumonitis (CIP) exhibits high morbidity and mortality rates in the real world, often coexisting with pneumonia, particularly after immunochemotherapy. We aimed to develop and validate a non-invasive n...
OBJECTIVE: This study investigates the relationship between vaginal radiation dose and radiation-induced vaginal injury in cervical cancer patients, with the aim of developing a risk prediction model to support personalized treatment strategies.
The maintenance of physical activity over time is a challenge for public health. Predictors of different physical activity intensities have not been sufficiently analyzed. This study aimed to identify clusters of trajectories of physical activity int...
