Zero‐shot learning enabled image enhancement in Bessel beam light sheet fluorescence microscopy

VIEW, EarlyView.
A physics‐guided, unsupervised deep learning‐based image restoration framework for Bessel beam light sheet fluorescence microscopy that suppresses side‐lobe‐induced artifacts is presented. The proposed zero‐shot approach achieved 2.2‐fold increase in signal‐to‐noise ratio and 89% contrast improvement in mouse kidney tissue images, demonstrating its ...

Diagnostic Utility of Full‐Length BP180 and Native BP180‐α6β4 Integrin Complex ELISAs in Serologically Inconclusive Mucous Membrane Pemphigoid

The Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mucous membrane pemphigoid (MMP) is a chronic autoimmune subepithelial blistering disorder of mucosal surfaces that can cause irreversible scarring, blindness, or dysphagia. Early diagnosis is challenging because histopathology is nonspecific and conventional BP180 NC16A ELISAs have limited sensitivity.

Interpreting the structure–function relationship in high myopia‐associated glaucoma: A review

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Visual field (VF) interpretation in high myopia‐associated glaucoma (HMG) is challenging due to frequent structure–function discordance and coexisting myopia‐related changes. These changes may reduce the reliability of conventional structure–function mapping and increase the risk of misclassifying non‐glaucomatous VF abnormalities as ...
