Advancement in oxygenator membrane technology has further expanded the boundaries in the clinical application of extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal (ECCOR). Despite the advent of modern poly-4-methyl-1-pentene (PMP) membranes, limited information ...
BACKGROUND: Muscle tissue saturation (StO) measured with near-infrared spectroscopy has generally been considered a measurement of the tissue microcirculatory condition. However, we hypothesized that StO could be more regarded as a fast and reliable ...

OBJECTIVE: Acute hyperglycemia causes endothelial dysfunction in diabetic patients, abolishes ischemic pre- and postconditioning, and is an independent predictor of adverse outcome after myocardial infarction in nondiabetic patients. Its effects on e...

The efficacy and optimization of poststroke physical therapy paradigms is challenged in part by a lack of objective tools available to researchers for systematic preclinical testing. This work represents a maiden effort to develop a robot-assisted me...
This study develops an objective machine-learning classification model for classifying glaucomatous optic discs and reveals the classificatory criteria to assist in clinical glaucoma management. In this study, 163 glaucoma eyes were labelled with fou...
Interventional radiology procedures, equipment, and techniques as well as image guidance have developed dramatically over the last few decades. The evidence for minimally invasive interventions in vascular and oncology fields is rapidly growing and s...
Our previous study employed the classic laser Doppler flux (LDF) to explore the complexity of local blood flow signals and their relationship with heart rate variability (HRV). However, microcirculation blood flow is composed of different velocity co...
Laser speckle contrast imaging (LSCI) enables video rate imaging of blood flow. However, its relation to tissue blood perfusion is nonlinear and depends strongly on exposure time. By contrast, the perfusion estimate from the slower laser Doppler flow...
Despite advances in artificial intelligence (AI), its application in medical imaging has been burdened and limited by expert-generated labels. We used images from optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA), a relatively new imaging modality that...
