BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: The standard non-invasive imaging technique used to assess the severity and extent of Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) is Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography (CCTA). However, manual grading of each patient's CCTA according...
BACKGROUND: Despite, the potential clinical utility of 60-4 visual fields, they are not frequently used in clinical practice partly, due to the purported impact of facial contour on field defects. The purpose of this study was to design and test an a...

Endometriosis affects 1 in 9 women and those assigned female at birth. However, it takes 6.4 years to diagnose using the conventional standard of laparoscopy. Noninvasive imaging enables a timelier diagnosis, reducing diagnostic delay as well as the ...
BACKGROUND: The American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status Classification System (ASA-PS) is used to classify patients' health before delivering an anesthetic. Assigning an ASA-PS Classification score to pediatric patients can be challengi...
BACKGROUND/AIM: Femoral neck fracture (FNF) seriously impact the health of the elderly and affect their long-term quality of life of the patients. This study aimed to determine whether combining the preoperative Fried Frailty Phenotype (FFP) with ser...
BACKGROUND: Wild-type transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTRwt-CM), an increasingly recognized cause of heart failure (HF), often remains undiagnosed until later stages of the disease.
This paper intends to investigate the feasibility of peripheral artery disease (PAD) diagnosis based on the analysis of non-invasive arterial pulse waveforms. We generated realistic synthetic arterial blood pressure (BP) and pulse volume recording (P...
