The choice of the intravenous fluid influences the tolerance of acute normovolemic anemia in anesthetized domestic pigs [PDF]
, 2012 The correction of hypovolemia with acellular fluids results in acute normovolemic anemia. Whether the choice of the infusion fluid has an impact on the maintenance of oxygen (O2) supply during acute normovolemic anemia has not been investigated so far ...

Lung Ultrasound as a Tool to Evaluate Fluid Accumulation in Dialysis Patients
Kidney & Blood Pressure Research, 2022 Background: Volume overload is the main mechanism of BP elevation in end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) patients undergoing hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis and has been linked to adverse outcomes and increased mortality in this population. Summary: This

Lung Structures Enhancement in Chest Radiographs via CT based FCNN Training [PDF]
, 2018 The abundance of overlapping anatomical structures appearing in chest radiographs can reduce the performance of lung pathology detection by automated algorithms (CAD) as well as the human reader. In this paper, we present a deep learning based image processing technique for enhancing the contrast of soft lung structures in chest radiographs using Fully

A Mathematical Model of Platelet Aggregation in an Extravascular Injury Under Flow [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 We present the first mathematical model of flow-mediated primary hemostasis in an extravascular injury, which can track the process from initial deposition to occlusion. The model consists of a system of ordinary differential equations (ODE) that describe platelet aggregation (adhesion and cohesion), soluble-agonist-dependent platelet activation, and ...

Tissue equivalence of some phantom materials for proton beams [PDF]
arXiv, 2010 Tissue and water equivalence of some phantom materials originally developed for conventional radiation therapy was investigated on the ITEP medical proton beam facility. The proton CSDA range in three variants of Plastic Water, lung, adipose, muscle and compact bone substitute materials (CIRS Inc., USA) was measured by a silicon diode as well as the ...

Lung segmentation on chest x-ray images in patients with severe abnormal findings using deep learning [PDF]
, 2019 Rationale and objectives: Several studies have evaluated the usefulness of deep learning for lung segmentation using chest x-ray (CXR) images with small- or medium-sized abnormal findings. Here, we built a database including both CXR images with severe abnormalities and experts' lung segmentation results, and aimed to evaluate our network's efficacy in
