Evaluation of MRI-based synthetic CT for lumbar degenerative disease: a comparison with CT.

Scientific reports
Patients with lumbar degenerative disease typically undergo preoperative MRI combined with CT scans, but this approach introduces additional ionizing radiation and examination costs. To compare the effectiveness of MRI-based synthetic CT (sCT) in dis...

Artificial Intelligence Iterative Reconstruction for Dose Reduction in Pediatric Chest CT: A Clinical Assessment via Below 3 Years Patients With Congenital Heart Disease.

Journal of thoracic imaging
PURPOSE: To assess the performance of a newly introduced deep learning-based reconstruction algorithm, namely the artificial intelligence iterative reconstruction (AIIR), in reducing the dose of pediatric chest CT by using the image data of below 3-y...

Radiomic 'Stress Test': exploration of a deep learning radiomic model in a high-risk prospective lung nodule cohort.

BMJ open respiratory research
BACKGROUND: Indeterminate pulmonary nodules (IPNs) are commonly biopsied to ascertain a diagnosis of lung cancer, but many are ultimately benign. The Lung Cancer Prediction (LCP) score is a commercially available deep learning radiomic model with str...

Development of a Cohesive Predictive Model for Substance Use Disorder Rehabilitation Using Passive Digital Biomarkers, Psychological Assessments, and Automated Facial Emotion Recognition: Protocol for a Prospective Cohort Study.

JMIR research protocols
BACKGROUND: Substance use disorder (SUD) involves excessive substance consumption and persistent reward-seeking behaviors, leading to serious physical, cognitive, and social consequences. This disorder is a global health crisis tied to increased mort...

From laser-on time to lithotripsy duration: improving the prediction of lithotripsy duration with 'Kidney Stone Calculator' using artificial intelligence.

World journal of urology
INTRODUCTION: "Kidney Stone Calculator" (KSC) helps to plan flexible ureteroscopy, providing the stone volume (SV) and an estimated duration of laser lithotripsy (eLD). eLD is calculated from in vitro ablation rates and SV. KSC's accuracy has been de...

Epicardial adipose tissue, myocardial remodelling and adverse outcomes in asymptomatic aortic stenosis: a post hoc analysis of a randomised controlled trial.

Heart (British Cardiac Society)
BACKGROUND: Epicardial adipose tissue represents a metabolically active visceral fat depot that is in direct contact with the left ventricular myocardium. While it is associated with coronary artery disease, little is known regarding its role in aort...

Evaluating real-world performance of an automated offline glaucoma AI on a smartphone fundus camera across glaucoma severity stages.

PloS one
PURPOSE: Leveraging an artificial intelligence system (AI) for glaucoma screening can mitigate the current challenges and provide prompt detection and management crucial in averting irreversible blindness. The study reports the real-world performance...

Progression and natural history of Atypical Parkinsonism (ATPARK): Protocol for a longitudinal follow-up study from an underrepresented population.

PloS one
BACKGROUND: Atypical Parkinsonian Syndromes (APS) form the third largest group of neurodegenerative disorders including Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP), Multiple System Atrophy (MSA), and Corticobasal Syndrome (CBS). These conditions are charact...

Computed tomography-derived quantitative imaging biomarkers enable the prediction of disease manifestations and survival in patients with systemic sclerosis.

RMD open
INTRODUCTION: Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a complex inflammatory vasculopathy with diverse symptoms and variable disease progression. Despite its known impact on body composition (BC), clinical decision-making has yet to incorporate these biomarkers....

A machine learning model for mortality prediction in patients with severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome: a prospective, multicenter cohort study.

Emerging microbes & infections
Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) is an emerging infectious disease that imposes a considerable medical burden. In this study, we enrolled 1,606 SFTS patients, developed and validated machine learning models for mortality prediction,...
