PURPOSE: Intravitreal injection is among the most frequent treatment strategies for chronic ophthalmic diseases. The last decade has seen a serious increase in the number of intravitreal injections, and with it, adverse effects and drawbacks. To tack...
Raman spectroscopy shows promise as a tool for timely diagnostics via in-vivo spectroscopy of the eye, for a number of ophthalmic diseases. By measuring the inelastic scattering of light, Raman spectroscopy is able to reveal detailed chemical charact...

Heart failure is a progressive chronic condition in which the heart undergoes detrimental changes in structure and function across multiple scales in time and space. Multiscale models of cardiac growth can provide a patient-specific window into the p...
Nowadays people tend to include more meat in their diet thanks to the improvement in standards of living as well as an increase in awareness of meat nutritive values. To ensure public health, therefore, there is a need for a rise in worldwide meat pr...
We suggest a novel method to classify the type of tissue that is being ablated, using the recorded acoustic sound waves during pulsed ultraviolet laser ablation. The motivation of the current research is tissue classification during vascular interven...
BACKGROUND: Vascular interventions imply radiation exposure to the operating physician (OP). To reduce radiation exposure, we propose a novel passive robotic device for fluoroscopy-guided arterial puncturing.
In this paper, we evaluated the power of microbiome measures taken at three time points over the growth test period (weaning, 15 and 22 weeks) to foretell growth and carcass traits in 1039 individuals of a line of crossbred pigs. We measured predicti...
For efficient drug discovery and screening, it is necessary to simplify P-glycoprotein (P-gp) substrate assays and to provide in silico models that predict the transport potential of P-gp. In this study, we developed a simplified in vitro screening m...
BACKGROUND: To date, the molecular mechanisms that underlie residual feed intake (RFI) in pigs are unknown. Results from different genome-wide association studies and gene expression analyses are not always consistent. The aim of this research was to...
Artery perforation during a vascular catheterization procedure is a potentially life threatening event. It is of particular importance for the surgeons to be aware of hidden or non-obvious events. To minimize the impact it is crucial for the surgeon ...
