Colonic Spirochetosis in a 60-Year-Old Immunocompetent Patient
Journal of Investigative Medicine High Impact Case Reports, 2016 Spirochetes, a genetically and morphologically distinct group of bacteria, are thin, spiral-shaped, and highly motile. They are known causes of several human diseases such as syphilis, Lyme disease, relapsing fever, and leptospirosis. We report a case of

MugenNet: A Novel Combined Convolution Neural Network and Transformer Network with its Application for Colonic Polyp Image Segmentation [PDF]
arXivBiomedical image segmentation is a very important part in disease diagnosis. The term "colonic polyps" refers to polypoid lesions that occur on the surface of the colonic mucosa within the intestinal lumen. In clinical practice, early detection of polyps is conducted through colonoscopy examinations and biomedical image processing.

Segmentation of Muscularis Propria in Colon Histopathology Images Using Vision Transformers for Hirschsprung's Disease [PDF]
arXivHirschsprung's disease (HD) is a congenital birth defect diagnosed by identifying the lack of ganglion cells within the colon's muscularis propria, specifically within the myenteric plexus regions. There may be advantages for quantitative assessments of histopathology images of the colon, such as counting the ganglion and assessing their spatial ...
