Ultrasound-enhanced co-fermentation of Yunnan Arabica coffee with rose petals: Mass transfer, microbial succession, and molecular modeling.

Different sex ratios of children born to Indian and Pakistani immigrants in Norway

Abstract Background A low female-to-male ratio has been observed in different Asian countries, but this phenomenon has not been well studied among immigrants living in Western societies. In this study, we investigated whether a low female-t...

A comparative study of the state-of-the-art artificial intelligence models for automated plaque measurement in a carotid ultrasound Japanese cohort.

Thyroid Ultrasound Appropriateness Identification Through Natural Language Processing of Electronic Health Records

Objective: To address thyroid cancer overdiagnosis, we aim to develop a natural language processing (NLP) algorithm to determine the appropriateness of thyroid ultrasounds (TUS). Patients and Methods: Between 2017 and 2021, we identified 18...

Valorisation of agri-food by-products into bioactive compounds: Green extraction, microbial biotransformation and circular biorefinery strategies

Agri-food processing generates large volumes of by-products that remain insufficiently exploited despite their content of phenolic compounds, peptides, polysaccharides, carotenoids, dietary fibres and other functional constituents. These si...

Adversarial robustness of deep learning-based thyroid nodule segmentation in ultrasound.

A high robustness decoding technique for ultrasound modulated electroencephalogram.

Ultrasound neural interface enabling acute spinal cord monitoring and blood flow modulation.

From Data to Decisions: AI in Varicose Veins—Predicting, Diagnosing, and Guiding Effective Management

Background: Varicose veins (VVs) of the lower limbs, characterized by palpable, dilated, and tortuous veins, affect 2–73% of the global population. Artificial intelligence (AI) offers significant potential to enhance healthcare efficiency a...

Automated deep bottleneck residual 82-layered architecture with Bayesian optimization for the classification of brain and common maternal fetal ultrasound planes

Despite a worldwide decline in maternal mortality over the past two decades, a significant gap persists between low- and high-income countries, with 94% of maternal mortality concentrated in low and middle-income nations. Ultrasound serves ...

Deep Learning in Medical Ultrasound Analysis: A Review

Ultrasound (US) has become one of the most commonly performed imaging modalities in clinical practice. It is a rapidly evolving technology with certain advantages and with unique challenges that include low imaging quality and high variabil...

Deep Learning for Cardiac Image Segmentation: A Review

Deep learning has become the most widely used approach for cardiac image segmentation in recent years. In this paper, we provide a review of over 100 cardiac image segmentation papers using deep learning, which covers common imaging modalit...

A deep learning-driven pipeline for differentiating hypertrophic cardiomyopathy from cardiac amyloidosis using 2D multi-view echocardiography

Abstract Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM) and Cardiac Amyloidosis (CA) are two cardiac conditions that can advance to heart failure if left untreated, which present considerable diagnostic challenges due to their overlapping echocardiograp...

Computational optical streak microscopy of megahertz acoustic microbubble dynamics

Abstract Real-time dynamic imaging of microbubbles is crucial for understanding their microscale biophysical interactions and advancing ultrasound therapy. Despite progress in time-resolved optical imaging, existing techniques still face tr...

Deep Learning in Ultrasound Imaging

In this article, we consider deep learning strategies in ultrasound systems, from the front end to advanced applications. Our goal is to provide the reader with a broad understanding of the possible impact of deep learning methodologies on ...

Cauchy non-convex sparse feature selection method for the high-dimensional small-sample problem in motor imagery EEG decoding

IntroductionThe time, frequency, and space information of electroencephalogram (EEG) signals is crucial for motor imagery decoding. However, these temporal-frequency-spatial features are high-dimensional small-sample data, which poses signi...

HIFU Tissue Degeneration Classification Based on Multifractal Detrending Fluctuation Analysis and Vision Transformer

For high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) thermal ablation to be safe and effective, real-time, high-precision monitoring of tissue coagulative necrosis is essential. However, decoding the ultra-long, non-stationary radio frequency (RF) ...
