BACKGROUND: Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT) is an established pacing therapy for heart failure patients. The New York Heart Association (NYHA) class is often used as a measure of a patient's response to CRT. Identifying NYHA class for heart f...
OBJECTIVE: Participation in a physical therapy program is considered one of the greatest predictors of successful conservative management of common shoulder disorders. However, adherence to these protocols is often poor and typically worse for unsupe...
Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging offers a wide variety of imaging techniques. A large amount of data is created per examination which needs to be checked for sufficient quality in order to derive a meaningful diagnosis. This is a manual process and th...
PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to develop and validate a decision support model using a machine learning algorithm to predict treatment success after single session shock wave lithotripsy in ureteral stone cases.
BACKGROUND: There is limited consensus regarding risk factors for postoperative bleeding. The objective of this work was to investigate the capability of machine learning techniques in combination with practice-based longitudinal electronic medical r...
PURPOSE: High grade gliomas (HGGs) are infiltrative in nature. Differentiation between vasogenic edema and non-contrast enhancing tumor is difficult as both appear hyperintense in T-W/FLAIR images. Most studies involving differentiation between vasog...
BACKGROUND: 1p/19q-codeleted anaplastic gliomas have variable clinical behavior. We have recently shown that the common 9p21.3 allelic loss is an independent prognostic factor in this tumor type. The aim of this study is to identify less frequent gen...
This paper proposes a noninvasive dual optical photoplethysmography (PPG) sensor to classify the degree of arteriovenous fistula (AVF) stenosis in hemodialysis (HD) patients. Dual PPG measurement node (DPMN) becomes the primary tool in this work for ...
