OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to develop and assess an advanced Attention-Based Residual U-Net (ResUNet) model for accurately segmenting different types of brain hemorrhages from CT images. The goal was to overcome the limitations of manual segmentatio...
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Obesity is a well-established risk factor for gallstone formation, but traditional anthropometric measures (e.g., BMI, waist circumference) inadequately assess metabolically active visceral adiposity. The novel Metabolic Score fo...
Steatotic liver disease (SLD), formerly named fatty liver disease, has a prevalence estimated at 30-38% in adults. Detection of SLD is important, since prompt initiation of treatment can stop disease progression, lead to a reduction in adverse outcom...
This study aims to explore Deep Learning methods, namely Large Language Models (LLMs) and Computer Vision models to accurately predict neoadjuvant rectal (NAR) score for locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC) treated with neoadjuvant chemoradiation (N...
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurological disorder that impairs movement control, leading to symptoms such as tremors, stiffness, and bradykinesia. Early and accurate PD detection is essential for effective management and improving patie...
We conducted a multicenter retrospective analysis of 408 patients diagnosed with onychomycosis who attended three tertiary care Spanish hospitals. The study was conducted to assess the clinical characteristics and outcomes of onychomycosis patients u...
Minimally invasive liver surgery (MILS) offers significant benefits but faces limited adoption due to its steep learning curve. This study explores the potential of artificial intelligence (AI) in assisting the performance of major MILS by providing ...
Atrial fibrillation (AF) increases the risk of adverse cardiovascular events, yet the underlying biological mechanisms remain unclear. We evaluate a panel of 12 circulating biomarkers representing diverse pathophysiological pathways in 3817 AF patien...
