CHOLANGIOSCOPY IN BILE DUCT DISEASE: a case series [PDF]

Arquivos de Gastroenterologia, 2014
Context Direct endoscopic visualization of biliopancreatic duct is certainly one of the greatest advances of therapeutic endoscopy. The use of a single-operator cholangioscopy platform (SpyGlass) is a promising technique in the evaluation of diseases such as indeterminate biliary stricture and giant choledocholitiasis. This is the first Brazilian case

Efficient and Specific PDGFRβ‐Targeting Dual‐Mode T1‐T2 MRI Nanoprobe for Early Diagnosis of Non‐Alcoholic Fatty Liver

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The Fe3O4/Gd@BSA‐pPB nanoprobe leverages biomimetic mineralization and targets hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) through PDGFRβ, offering superior enrichment in fibrotic regions. This targeted delivery overcomes biological barriers, enhancing both the accuracy and sensitivity of MRI imaging at early disease stages.

Identification of Tumor‐Specific Surface Proteins Enables Quantification of Extracellular Vesicle Subtypes for Early Detection of Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) extracellular vesicle (EV) surface protein assay operates via a two‐step workflow – Step 1: Click chemistry‐mediated enrichment of PDAC EVs by EV Click Beads, in the presence of one of the three trans‐cyclooctene‐grafted PDAC EV‐specific antibodies; Step 2: Quantification of the enriched PDAC EVs by reverse ...

Probabilistic self-learning framework for Low-dose CT Denoising [PDF]

, 2020
Despite the indispensable role of X-ray computed tomography (CT) in diagnostic medicine field, the associated ionizing radiation is still a major concern considering that it may cause genetic and cancerous diseases. Decreasing the exposure can reduce the dose and hence the radiation-related risk, but will also induce higher quantum noise.
