First Trimester Noninvasive Prenatal Diagnosis: A Computational Intelligence Approach.

IEEE journal of biomedical and health informatics
The objective of this study is to examine the potential value of using machine learning techniques such as artificial neural network (ANN) schemes for the noninvasive estimation, at 11-13 weeks of gestation, the risk for euploidy, trisomy 21 (T21), a...

The application of fuzzy statistics and linear discriminant analysis as criteria for optimizing the preparation of plasma for matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry peptide profiling.

Clinica chimica acta; international journal of clinical chemistry
An alternative bioinformatics approach based on fuzzy theory statistics and linear discriminant analysis is proposed for the interpretation of MALDI MS spectra in peptide profiling. When applied, the methodology enables the establishment of a reprodu...

Lumbar Ultrasound Image Feature Extraction and Classification with Support Vector Machine.

Ultrasound in medicine & biology
Needle entry site localization remains a challenge for procedures that involve lumbar puncture, for example, epidural anesthesia. To solve the problem, we have developed an image classification algorithm that can automatically identify the bone/inter...

Locomotor Adaptation by Transtibial Amputees Walking With an Experimental Powered Prosthesis Under Continuous Myoelectric Control.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Lower limb amputees can use electrical activity from their residual muscles for myoelectric control of a powered prosthesis. The most common approach for myoelectric control is a finite state controller that identifies behavioral states and discrete ...

A Markov random field approach to group-wise registration/mosaicing with application to ultrasound.

Medical image analysis
In this paper we present a group-wise non-rigid registration/mosaicing algorithm based on block-matching, which is developed within a probabilistic framework. The discrete form of its energy functional is linked to a Markov Random Field (MRF) contain...

Application of hierarchical dissociated neural network in closed-loop hybrid system integrating biological and mechanical intelligence.

PloS one
Neural networks are considered the origin of intelligence in organisms. In this paper, a new design of an intelligent system merging biological intelligence with artificial intelligence was created. It was based on a neural controller bidirectionally...

Standard Plane Localization in Fetal Ultrasound via Domain Transferred Deep Neural Networks.

IEEE journal of biomedical and health informatics
Automatic localization of the standard plane containing complicated anatomical structures in ultrasound (US) videos remains a challenging problem. In this paper, we present a learning-based approach to locate the fetal abdominal standard plane (FASP)...

The potential of AOP networks for reproductive and developmental toxicity assay development.

Reproductive toxicology (Elmsford, N.Y.)
Historically, the prediction of reproductive and developmental toxicity has largely relied on the use of animals. The adverse outcome pathway (AOP) framework forms a basis for the development of new non-animal test methods. It also provides biologica...

Management of ovarian cancer in 14th gestational week of pregnancy by robotic approach with preservation of the fetus.

Gynecologic and obstetric investigation
The objective of this study is to present a rare case of pregnancy complicated with ovarian cancer managed by robotic surgery. A 36-year-old woman suffered from sudden onset of lower abdominal pain during her pregnancy at 14 weeks of gestation. As ma...

Iatrogenic Uterine Diverticulum in Pregnancy After Robotic-assisted Myomectomy.

Journal of minimally invasive gynecology
Uterine diverticula are rare outpouchings of the uterus associated with abnormal uterine bleeding, pelvic pain, dysmenorrhea, and adverse obstetric events. At the time of cesarean delivery at 36 5/7 weeks' gestation during the patient's first pregnan...
