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...

PURPOSE: Radiation-free systems based on dorsal surface topography can potentially represent an alternative to radiographic examination for early screening of scoliosis, based on the ability of recognizing the presence of deformity or classifying its...
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: To explore both an intratumoral heterogeneity (ITH) model based on habitat analysis and a deep learning (DL) model based on contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (CEMRI) and validate its efficiency for predicting micr...
BACKGROUND: Classification of perioperative risk is important for patient care, resource allocation, and guiding shared decision-making. Using discriminative features from the electronic health record (EHR), machine-learning algorithms can create dig...
OBJECTIVE: Intracranial saccular aneurysms are vascular malformations responsible for 80% of nontraumatic brain hemorrhage. Recently, flow diverters have been used as a less invasive therapeutic alternative for surgery. However, they fail to achieve ...

BACKGROUND: The clinical applicability of machine learning predictions of patient outcomes following cardiac surgery remains unclear. We applied machine learning to predict patient outcomes associated with high morbidity and mortality after cardiac s...
Accurately predicting functional outcomes in patients with spinal cord injury (SCI) helps clinicians set realistic functional recovery goals and improve the home environment after discharge. The present study aimed to develop and validate machine lea...

A non-invasive optical technique known as photoplethysmography (PPG) can be used to provide various physiological measurements and estimations. PPG can be used to assess cardiovascular disease (CVD). Hypertension is a primary risk factor for CVD and ...
BACKGROUND: Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) rupture prediction based on sex and diameter could be improved. The goal was to assess whether aortic calcification distribution could better predict AAA rupture through machine learning and LASSO regressio...
