Advancements in left ventricular assist devices to prevent pump thrombosis and blood coagulopathy
Left ventricular assist device (LVAD)‐related blood coagulopathy: Pump thrombosis is one of the most severe adverse events caused by LVADs. The contact of blood with artificial materials of LVAD pumps and cannulas triggers the coagulation cascade. Abstract Mechanical circulatory support (MCS) devices, such as left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) are

Joint Explicit and Implicit Cross-Modal Interaction Network for Anterior Chamber Inflammation Diagnosis [PDF]
Uveitis demands the precise diagnosis of anterior chamber inflammation (ACI) for optimal treatment. However, current diagnostic methods only rely on a limited single-modal disease perspective, which leads to poor performance. In this paper, we investigate a promising yet challenging way to fuse multimodal data for ACI diagnosis.

Abstract Purpose Palliative radiotherapy comprises a significant portion of the radiation treatment workload. Volumetric‐modulated arc therapy (VMAT) improves dose conformity and, in conjunction with flattening filter free (FFF) delivery, can decrease treatment times, both of which are desirable in a population with a high probability of retreatment ...
