Deep auscultation: Predicting respiratory anomalies and diseases via recurrent neural networks [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
Respiratory diseases are among the most common causes of severe illness and death worldwide. Prevention and early diagnosis are essential to limit or even reverse the trend that characterizes the diffusion of such diseases. In this regard, the development of advanced computational tools for the analysis of respiratory auscultation sounds can become a ...

Mathematical and Preclinical Investigation of Respiratory Sinus Arrhythmia Effects on Cardiac Output [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
Respiratory sinus arrhythmia (RSA) is heart rate variability in synchrony with respiration although its functional significance not clear. The loss of sinus arrhythmia may indicate underlying heart failure or disease; therefore, there would be a great advantage of knowing how it works and affects the cardio-respiratory system, especially by providing a

Efficacy of a thermoplastic mask and pneumatic abdominal compression device for immobilization in stereotactic ablative radiotherapy of spine metastases

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) has become a key technique in management of spine metastases. With improved control over treatment plan dosimetry, there is a greater need for accurate patient positioning to guarantee agreement between the treatment plan and delivered dose.

Patient‐specific adaptive planning margin for whole bladder radiation therapy

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Whole bladder irradiation is an organ preservation treatment approach for muscle‐invasive bladder cancer (MIBC). Conventional planning margins, typically 15–20 mm, increase normal tissue toxicity and limit possible dose escalation.

Extracting Fractional Inspiratory Time from Electrocardiograms [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
Non-invasive at-home monitoring of lung and lung airways health enables the early detection and tracking of respiratory diseases like asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Various proposed approaches estimate the respiratory rate and extract the respiratory waveform from an electrocardiogram (ECG) signal as a way to discreetly ...

Estimation of Physical Activity Level and Ambient Condition Thresholds for Respiratory Health using Smartphone Sensors [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
While physical activity has been described as a primary prevention against chronic diseases, strenuous physical exertion under adverse ambient conditions has also been reported as a major contributor to exacerbation of chronic respiratory conditions.

Investigation of factors related to treatment planning of x‐ray SBRT and scanning carbon‐ion radiation therapy for early‐stage lung cancer patients

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract This study aimed to compare the treatment plans of x‐ray SBRT and scanning carbon ion radiation therapy (CIRT) for localized lung tumors, and to evaluate the dose dependence of tumor size tumor‐to‐heart distance. For phantom verification, we used a chest phantom with a spherical simulated tumor.
