BACKGROUND: Modelling can contribute to disease prevention and control strategies. Accurate predictions of future cases and mortality rates were essential for establishing appropriate policies during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, no single model yi...
BACKGROUND: Machine learning (ML) systems in health care have the potential to enhance decision-making but often fail to address critical issues such as prediction explainability, confidence, and robustness in a context-based and easily interpretable...

BACKGROUND: Currently high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) is widely used to treat uterine fibroids (UFs). The aim of this study is to develop a machine learning model that can accurately predict the efficacy of HIFU ablation for UFs, assisting t...
Aqueous two-phase systems (ATPS) have been used to purify a range of biomolecules, including small molecules, monoclonal antibodies, viruses, and whole cells. They are known for selective separations, creating a stabilizing, low-shear environment, an...
Label scarcity, class imbalance and data uncertainty are three primary challenges that are commonly encountered in the semi-supervised medical image segmentation. In this work, we focus on the data uncertainty issue that is overlooked by previous lit...
INTRODUCTION: Osteoporosis, a common condition characterised by decreased bone mass and microarchitectural deterioration, leading to increased fracture risk, is a significant health concern. Traditional diagnostic methods, such as Dual-energy X-ray A...
The increasing use of ionizing radiation has raised concerns about adverse and long-term health risks for individuals. Therefore, to evaluate the range of risks and protection against ionizing radiation, it is necessary to assess the dosimetry calcul...
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: To generate virtual T1 contrast-enhanced (T1CE) sequences from plain spinal MRI sequences using the denoising diffusion probabilistic model (DDPM) and to compare its performance against one baseline model pix2pix and three a...
BACKGROUND: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction is a widely performed procedure for ACL injury, but there are several factors which may lead to re-rupture or clinical failure. An intercondylar notch (or fossa) that is narrower may increas...
