Crossbar-Net: A Novel Convolutional Network for Kidney Tumor Segmentation in CT Images [PDF]
, 2018 Due to the irregular motion, similar appearance and diverse shape, accurate segmentation of kidney tumor in CT images is a difficult and challenging task. To this end, we present a novel automatic segmentation method, termed as Crossbar-Net, with the goal of accurate segmenting the kidney tumors. Firstly, considering that the traditional learning-based

Cardiac tumor biopsy under the guidance of intracardiac echocardiography.
Japanese circulation journal, 2000 Transthoracic echocardiography or transesophageal echocardiography is sometimes useful in intracardiac tumor biopsy. Intracardiac echocardiography was used as an alternative to either of these for performing a biopsy of a right cardiac tumor in a 79-year-

Right atrial benign schwannoma
Вестник трансплантологии и искусственных органов, 2019 Primary schwannoma of the heart is a rare disease. It arises from vagus nerve branches and plexus. Most schwannomas are benign tumors, but sometimes they can be primary malignant neoplasms. In the MedLine database, we found only 21 publications on benign

DeepVelo: deep learning extends RNA velocity to multi-lineage systems with cell-specific kinetics
Genome BiologyExisting RNA velocity estimation methods strongly rely on predefined dynamics and cell-agnostic constant transcriptional kinetic rates, assumptions often violated in complex and heterogeneous single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) accounts for half of the heart failure cases. It is characterised by microvascular dysfunction, associated with reduced pericyte coverage and diminished STAT3 expression in pericytes. Loss of STAT3 impairs pericyte adhesion, promotes senescence, and activates a pro‐fibrotic gene program.
