Psoriasis, a chronic inflammatory skin disease, affects millions of people worldwide. It imposes a significant burden on patients' quality of life and healthcare systems, creating an urgent need for optimized diagnosis, treatment, and management. In ...
The limitations and complexity of traditional noncontact sensors in terms of sensitivity and threshold settings pose great challenges to extend the traditional five human senses. Here, we propose tele-perception to enhance human perception and cognit...
This study aims to explore the efficacy of a hybrid deep learning and radiomics approach, supplemented with patient metadata, in the noninvasive dermoscopic imaging-based diagnosis of skin lesions. We analyzed dermoscopic images from the Internationa...
Automated segmentation algorithms for dermoscopic images serve as effective tools that assist dermatologists in clinical diagnosis. While existing deep learning-based skin lesion segmentation algorithms have achieved certain success, challenges remai...
Skin surface imaging has been used to examine skin lesions with a microscope for over a century and is commonly known as epiluminescence microscopy, dermatoscopy, or dermoscopy. Skin surface microscopy has been recommended to reduce the necessity of ...
Sound is a rich information medium that transmits through air; people communicate through speech and can even discern material through tapping and listening. To capture frequencies in the human hearing range, commercial microphones typically have a s...
Photoacoustic computed tomography (PACT) has centimeter-level imaging ability and can be used to detect the human body. However, strong photoacoustic signals from skin cover deep tissue information, hindering the frontal display and analysis of photo...
