Reconstruction of total-body multi parametric images with shortened-duration dynamic [Ga]Ga-PSMA-11 and [Ga]Ga-FAPI-04 PET scans.

Physics in medicine and biology
The lengthy 1 h dynamic positron emission tomography (PET) scans discomfort patients, add motion artifacts, and inflate costs, highlighting the need for tech advancements to reduce scan times. Therefore, we attempted to reconstruct multi-parametric i...

Streamlining organ donation: impact of an artificial intelligence-based protocol post-brain death.

BMJ open quality
BACKGROUND: Delays in organ retrieval following brain death (BD) can compromise organ viability, increasing the risk of post-transplant complications. In 2021, the Transplant Authority of Tamil Nadu, India, implemented an artificial intelligence (AI)...

Development of a deep learning method to identify acute ischaemic stroke lesions on brain CT.

Stroke and vascular neurology
BACKGROUND: CT is commonly used to image patients with ischaemic stroke but radiologist interpretation may be delayed. Machine learning techniques can provide rapid automated CT assessment but are usually developed from annotated images which necessa...

Developing a hybrid machine learning model to predict treatment time duration as a workflow regulation tool in public and private dental clinics.

Scientific reports
This study aimed to design a desktop application that implements machine learning algorithms to predict dental treatment time durations, assess the accuracy of the model, and assess its clinical efficiency. The Python programming language was used to...

Deep unrolled primal dual network for TOF-PET list-mode image reconstruction.

Physics in medicine and biology
Time-of-flight (TOF) information provides more accurate location data for annihilation photons, thereby enhancing the quality of positron emission tomography (PET) reconstruction images and reducing noise. List-mode reconstruction has a significant a...

Initiation of antifibrotic treatment in fibrosing interstitial lung disease: is the clock ticking till proven progression?

European respiratory review : an official journal of the European Respiratory Society
Several interstitial lung diseases (ILDs) with different aetiologies and pathogenic mechanisms may exhibit a progressive behaviour, similar to idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, with comparable functional decline and early mortality. Progressive pulmonar...

Neural Signals-Based Respiratory Motion Tracking: A Surface Electromyography Study.

International journal of radiation oncology, biology, physics
PURPOSE: Neural signals-based respiratory motion tracking offers a potential solution to the system latency issue of medical linear accelerators in respiratory motion tracking radiation therapy. However, decoding respiratory-related neural signals fr...

Machine learning algorithms for risk factor selection with application to 60-day sepsis morbidity risk for a geriatric hip fracture cohort.

BMC geriatrics
BACKGROUND: Sepsis after hip fracture in elderly people is a risk factor for mortality. The purpose of this study was to screen for risk factors for 60-day sepsis morbidity after hip fracture and to establish a predictive model using various machine ...

Deep learning-based real-time detection of head and neck tumors during radiation therapy.

Physics in medicine and biology
Clinical drivers for real-time head and neck (H&N) tumor tracking during radiation therapy (RT) are accounting for motion caused by changes to the immobilization mask fit, and to reduce mask-related patient distress by replacing the masks with patien...
