Design and Development of a Web-based Tool for Inpainting of Dissected Aortae in Angiography Images [PDF]

The 24th Central European Seminar on Computer Graphics (CESCG), pp. 1-8, May. 2020, 2020
Medical imaging is an important tool for the diagnosis and the evaluation of an aortic dissection (AD); a serious condition of the aorta, which could lead to a life-threatening aortic rupture. AD patients need life-long medical monitoring of the aortic enlargement and of the disease progression, subsequent to the diagnosis of the aortic dissection ...

Review of the Essential Roles of SMCs in ATAA Biomechanics [PDF]

Advances in Biomechanics and Tissue Regeneration, Elsevier, pp.95-114, 2019, 2019
Aortic Aneurysms are among the most critical cardiovascular diseases. The present study is focused on Ascending Thoracic Aortic Aneurysms (ATAA). The main causes of ATAA are commonly cardiac malformations like bicuspid aor-tic valve or genetic mutations. Research studies dedicated to ATAA tend more and more to invoke multifactorial eects.

CT and MRI in the Evaluation of Thoracic Aortic Diseases

International Journal of Vascular Medicine, 2013
Computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are the most commonly used imaging examinations to evaluate thoracic aortic diseases because of their high spatial and temporal resolutions, large fields of view, and multiplanar imaging ...

Metal–Organic Framework‐Based Antimicrobial Touch Surfaces to Prevent Cross‐Contamination

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A MOF‐based antimicrobial door handle cover is developed. It completely inhibits the cross‐contamination of Gram‐positive bacterial species (Staphylococcus aureus, and Enterococcus faecalis), Gram‐negative bacterial species (Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Acinetobacter baumannii), and fungi (Candida albicans). Abstract Infection diseases

Segmentation-free Estimation of Aortic Diameters from MRI Using Deep Learning [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
Accurate and reproducible measurements of the aortic diameters are crucial for the diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases and for therapeutic decision making. Currently, these measurements are manually performed by healthcare professionals, being time consuming, highly variable, and suffering from lack of reproducibility.

Biological features of thoracic aortic diseases. Where are we now, where are we heading to: established and emerging biomarkers and molecular pathways.

European Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 2013
Thoracic aortic aneurysms (TAAs) and aortic dissections (ADs) are among the main causes of mortality and morbidity in Western countries. For this reason, the diagnosis, prevention and prediction of TAAs and ADs have become a very active area of research;
