Patients with cancer often exhibit multiple co-occurring symptoms which can impact the type of treatment received, recovery, and long-term health. We aim to simultaneously predict the risk of three symptoms: severe pain, moderate-severe depression, a...
Whole-slide histology images contain information that is valuable for clinical and basic science investigations of cancer but extracting quantitative measurements from these images is challenging for researchers who are not image analysis specialists...
Echocardiography is a relatively inexpensive and widely available technique that has a pivotal role in the assessment and management of patients with heart failure (HF). Advancements in cardiac ultrasound, especially the advent of myocardial deformat...
Assessing cancer response to therapeutic interventions has been realized as an important course to early predict curative efficacy and treatment outcomes due to tumor heterogeneity. Compared to the traditional invasive tissue biopsy method, molecular...

OBJECTIVES: Prolactinoma is the most common cause of pituitary tumours. Current medical guidelines recommend dopamine agonists (cabergoline or bromocriptine) as the initial therapy for prolactinoma. However, surgical removal can also be considered in...
Transplantation-associated thrombotic microangiopathy (TA-TMA) is a complication of allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) that often occurs following the development of acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD). In this study, we aimed to...
Cardiac computed tomography angiography (CCTA) is widely used as a diagnostic tool for evaluation of coronary artery disease (CAD). Despite the excellent capability to rule-out CAD, CCTA may overestimate the degree of stenosis; furthermore, CCTA anal...
