[A Case of Eosinophilic Enteritis Needed to Distinguish from a Tumor of the Small Intestine].

Gan to kagaku ryoho. Cancer & chemotherapy
A 75-year-old woman was diagnosed with aplastic anemia 6 months ago and was under follow-up at our hospital. She had originallypresented to our hospital because of ongoing diarrhea and abdominal pain. Her blood tests showed a rise in inflammatorymark...

Unusual presentation of obscure Meckel diverticulum treated with robot-assisted diverticulectomy: A case report.

Medicine
INTRODUCTION: Meckel diverticulum (MD) is the most common congenital abnormality of gastrointestinal tract. Tough believed to occur in 2% of population, most of them remain veiled because majority are clinically asymptomatic and remain obscure in rad...

Patient-specific instrumentation improves the accuracy of acetabular component placement in total hip arthroplasty.

The bone & joint journal
AIMS: Accurate placement of the acetabular component during total hip arthroplasty (THA) is an important factor in the success of the procedure. However, the reported accuracy varies greatly and is dependent upon whether free hand or navigated techni...

A machine learning based approach for identifying traumatic brain injury patients for whom a head CT scan can be avoided.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Head CT scan is more often used to evaluate patients with suspected traumatic brain injury (TBI). However, the use of head CT scans in evaluating TBI is costly with low value endeavor. In this paper, we propose a new algorithm and a set of features t...

Vessel extraction in X-ray angiograms using deep learning.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the most common type of heart disease which is the leading cause of death all over the world. X-ray angiography is currently the gold standard imaging technique for CAD diagnosis. These images usually suffer from low ...

Navigation of a robot-integrated fluorescence laparoscope in preoperative SPECT/CT and intraoperative freehand SPECT imaging data: a phantom study.

Journal of biomedical optics
Robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery is becoming an established technique for prostatectomy and is increasingly being explored for other types of cancer. Linking intraoperative imaging techniques, such as fluorescence guidance, with the three-dimensio...

Successful Robotic Excision and Early Chemotherapy for Primary Cardiac Lymphoma.

The Annals of thoracic surgery
We present a 67-year-old patient who underwent robotic excision of a mobile left ventricular mass found incidentally on echocardiography. Intraoperative findings revealed a pedunculated mass infiltrating the interventricular septum, and the results o...

Image reconstruction from few-view CT data by gradient-domain dictionary learning.

Journal of X-ray science and technology
BACKGROUND: Decreasing the number of projections is an effective way to reduce the radiation dose exposed to patients in medical computed tomography (CT) imaging. However, incomplete projection data for CT reconstruction will result in artifacts and ...

[A Denoising Method for Low-dose Small-animal Computed Tomography Image Based on Globe Dictionary Learning].

Sheng wu yi xue gong cheng xue za zhi = Journal of biomedical engineering = Shengwu yixue gongchengxue zazhi
Considering the survival rate of small animals and the continuity of the experiments,high-dose X-ray shooting process is not suitable for the small animals in computed tomography(CT)experiments.But the low-dose process results with images might be po...
