An Interactive Automation for Human Biliary Tree Diagnosis Using Computer Vision [PDF]
The biliary tree is a network of tubes that connects the liver to the gallbladder, an organ right beneath it. The bile duct is the major tube in the biliary tree. The dilatation of a bile duct is a key indicator for more major problems in the human body, such as stones and tumors, which are frequently caused by the pancreas or the papilla of vater. The

Association of diverse bacterial communities in human bile samples with biliary tract disorders: a survey using culture and polymerase chain reaction-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis methods [PDF]
Bacterial infection is considered a predisposing factor for disorders of the biliary tract. This study aimed to determine the diversity of bacterial communities in bile samples and their involvement in the occurrence of biliary tract diseases. A total of

One-Shot Segmentation of Novel White Matter Tracts via Extensive Data Augmentation [PDF]
Deep learning based methods have achieved state-of-the-art performance for automated white matter (WM) tract segmentation. In these methods, the segmentation model needs to be trained with a large number of manually annotated scans, which can be accumulated throughout time.

“Steinstrasse” in the Biliary Tract
The presence of a stone or stones within the common bile duct (CBD) is known as choledocholithiasis. Choledocholithiasis is reported in 3%-22% of patients undergoing cholecystectomies [1]. A confirmatory diagnosis of choledocholithiasis is made using advanced imaging, including magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography and endoscopic retrograde ...

Knowledge Transfer for Few-shot Segmentation of Novel White Matter Tracts [PDF]
Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have achieved stateof-the-art performance for white matter (WM) tract segmentation based on diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (dMRI). These CNNs require a large number of manual delineations of the WM tracts of interest for training, which are generally labor-intensive and costly. The expensive manual delineation

The DNA damage repair (DDR) pathway in biliary tract cancer (BTC): a new Pandora’s box?
We read with great interest the article ‘Molecular profile of BRCA-mutated biliary tract cancers’ by Spizzo and colleagues.1 This study provides substantial evidence of the emerging importance of BRCA 1/2 mutations (BRCAm) identification in biliary tract

Targeted Therapies in Advanced Biliary Tract Cancer: An Evolving Paradigm
Biliary tract cancers (BTCs) are a heterogeneous group of adenocarcinomas that originate from the epithelial lining of the biliary tree. BTCs are characterized by presentation with advanced disease precluding curative surgery, rising global incidence ...
