Endobronchial Ultrasound Elastography for Diagnosing Mediastinal and Hilar Lymph Nodes

open access: yesChinese Medical Journal, 2015
Background: Pathophysiological processes, such as malignancy, can lead to the formation of stiffer tissue in lung cancers. Endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS) elastography is a novel technique for measuring tissue stiffness during EBUS-guided transbronchial ...

WONOEP XVII appraisal: The role of the extracellular matrix in epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract The extracellular matrix (ECM) is composed of proteoglycans and glycoproteins that regulate the external environment surrounding neurons, glia, and the vascular system. The ECM is vital for maintaining the structure and function of the brain and also acts as a reservoir for various signaling molecules and neurotransmitters, modulating synaptic

Magnetic Resonance Elastography [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Medical Imaging Reviews, 2012
Often compared to the practice of manual palpation, magnetic resonance elastography is an emerging technology for quantitatively assessing the mechanical properties of tissue as a basis for characterizing disease. The potential of MRE as a diagnostic tool is rooted in the fact that normal and diseased tissues often differ significantly in terms of ...

Flexible wearable electronics for cardiovascular monitoring from surface signals to deep physiological insights

open access: yesFlexMat, EarlyView.
This review organizes flexible wearable electronics for cardiovascular monitoring into four interconnected information layers: surface electrophysiology, hemodynamic sensing, vascular imaging, and biofluid biomarker analysis. This framework clarifies how electrical rhythm, vascular loading, structural and flow‐related features, and biochemical states ...

PelviSound L—Real‐time intraoperative sonographic assessment of pelvic sentinel lymph nodes using a drop‐in probe in endometrial and cervical cancer during minimally invasive surgery: A single‐center pilot feasibility study in 20 patients

open access: yesInternational Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) is considered an essential step in the surgical management of endometrial and cervical cancers as it has led to a reduction in the need for full pelvic lymphadenectomy. This proof‐of‐concept study aimed to evaluate the feasibility and diagnostic performance of intraoperative sonographic assessment of
