BACKGROUND: Securing sufficient blood perfusion to the anastomotic area after low-anterior resection is a crucial factor in preventing anastomotic leakage (AL). Intra-operative indocyanine green fluorescent imaging (ICG-FI) has been suggested as a to...
OBJECTIVE: The blood flow in lymph nodes reflects important pathological features. However, most intelligent diagnosis based on contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) video focuses only on CEUS images, ignoring the process of extracting blood flow infor...

BACKGROUND: Single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) myocardial perfusion images (MPI) can be displayed both in traditional short-axis (SA) cardiac planes and polar maps for interpretation and quantification. It is essential to reorient the...
, cell-based assays are essential in diagnostics and drug development. There are ongoing efforts to establish new technologies that enable real-time detection of cell-drug interaction during culture under flow conditions. Our compact (10 × 10 × 8.5 c...
Registration of dynamic CT image sequences is a crucial preprocessing step for clinical evaluation of multiple physiological determinants in the heart such as global and regional myocardial perfusion. In this work, we present a deformable deep learni...
Accurate segmentation of the left ventricle (LV) is crucial for evaluating myocardial perfusion SPECT (MPS) and assessing LV functions. In this study, a novel method combining deep learning with shape priors was developed and validated to extract the...
BACKGROUND: An empirical selective clamping strategy based on the direction of the arterial branches can lead to failures during partial nephrectomy, even when assisted by three-dimensional virtual models (3DVMs).
RATIONALE: Single-photon-emission-computerized-tomography/computed-tomography(SPECT/CT) is commonly used for pulmonary disease. Scant work has been done to determine ability of AI for secondary findings using low-dose-CT(LDCT) attenuation correction ...
