Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a syndrome complex that accompanies a number of diseases of different etiologies, associated with basic mechanisms of structural and functional changes of the pulmonary circulation vessels and revealed pressure increasi...

The presentation of pulmonary embolism (PE) varies from asymptomatic to life-threatening, and management involves multiple specialists. Timely diagnosis of PE is based on clinical presentation, D-dimer testing, and computed tomography pulmonary angio...
An increasing and aging patient population poses a growing burden on healthcare professionals. Automation of medical imaging diagnostics holds promise for enhancing patient care and reducing manpower required to accommodate an increasing patient-popu...
We present a novel computer algorithm to automatically detect and segment pulmonary embolisms (PEs) on computed tomography pulmonary angiography (CTPA). This algorithm is based on deep learning but does not require manual outlines of the PE regions. ...
Hyperspectral fluorescence imaging is widely used when multiple fluorescent probes with close emission peaks are required. In particular, Fourier transform imaging spectroscopy (FTIS) provides unrivaled spectral resolution; however, the imaging throu...

PURPOSE: In clinical practice, many patients with right heart failure (RHF) have elevated pulmonary artery pressures and increased afterload on the right ventricle (RV). In this study, we evaluated the feasibility of RV augmentation using a soft robo...
Accurate diagnosis of pulmonary hypertension (PH) is crucial to ensure that patients receive timely treatment. We hypothesized that application of artificial intelligence (AI) to the chest X-ray (CXR) could identify elevated pulmonary artery pressure...
PURPOSE: To design and evaluate a self-trainable natural language processing (NLP)-based procedure to classify unstructured radiology reports. The method enabling the generation of curated datasets is exemplified on CT pulmonary angiogram (CTPA) repo...
Due to the overlapping emission spectra of fluorophores, fluorescence microscopy images often have bleed-through problems, leading to a false positive detection. This problem is almost unavoidable when the samples are labeled with three or more fluor...
