Fully Automated Spleen Localization And Segmentation Using Machine Learning And 3D Active Contours.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Automated segmentation of the spleen in CT volumes is difficult due to variations in size, shape, and position of the spleen within the abdominal cavity as well as similarity of intensity values among organs in the abdominal cavity. In this paper we ...

Benefit of Critical Care Flight Paramedic-Trained Search and Rescue Corpsmen in Treatment of Severely Injured Aviators.

Journal of special operations medicine : a peer reviewed journal for SOF medical professionals
During routine aircraft start-up procedures at a US Naval Air Station, an aviation mishap occurred, resulting in the pilot suffering a traumatic brain injury and the copilot acquiring bilateral hemopneumothoraces, a ruptured diaphragm, and hepatic an...

Intravoxel Incoherent Motion: Model-Free Determination of Tissue Type in Abdominal Organs Using Machine Learning.

Investigative radiology
PURPOSE: For diffusion data sets including low and high b-values, the intravoxel incoherent motion model is commonly applied to characterize tissue. The aim of the present study was to show that machine learning allows a model-free approach to determ...

[Clinical observation of recurrent oral ulcer of heat accumulation in the heart and spleen treated with acupoint injection and fire needling therapy].

Zhongguo zhen jiu = Chinese acupuncture & moxibustion
OBJECTIVE: To compare the clinical efficacy between the combined acupuncture therapy of acupoint injection and fire needling and the oral administration of vitamin C and B2 as well as subcutaneous injection of transfer factor.

[Constipation predominant irritable bowel syndrome treated with acupuncture for regulating the mind and strengthening the spleen: a randomized controlled trial].

Zhongguo zhen jiu = Chinese acupuncture & moxibustion
OBJECTIVE: To observe the clinical efficacy on constipation predominant irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-C) treated with acupuncture for regulating the mind and strengthening the spleen and the impacts on the quality of life in the patients.

[The Effect of Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Mouse B Cell Activation on Schistosoma japonicum Development].

Zhongguo ji sheng chong xue yu ji sheng chong bing za zhi = Chinese journal of parasitology & parasitic diseases
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced B cell activation on the development of Schistosoma japonicum.

Surgical energy device using steam jet for robotic assisted surgery.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
In robotic assisted surgery, the carbonization and the adherence of coagulated tissues caused by surgical energy devices are problems. We propose a surgical energy device using a steam jet to solve the problems. The device applies a steam jet and per...
