Automatic 3D Multi-modal Ultrasound Segmentation of Human Placenta using Fusion Strategies and Deep Learning [PDF]
Purpose: Ultrasound is the most commonly used medical imaging modality for diagnosis and screening in clinical practice. Due to its safety profile, noninvasive nature and portability, ultrasound is the primary imaging modality for fetal assessment in pregnancy.

In utero diffusion MRI: challenges, advances, and applications [PDF]
In utero diffusion MRI provides unique opportunities to non-invasively study the microstructure of tissue during fetal development. A wide range of developmental processes, such as the growth of white matter tracts in the brain, the maturation of placental villous trees, or the fibres in the fetal heart remain to be studied and understood in detail ...

FetalDiffusion: Pose-Controllable 3D Fetal MRI Synthesis with Conditional Diffusion Model [PDF]
The quality of fetal MRI is significantly affected by unpredictable and substantial fetal motion, leading to the introduction of artifacts even when fast acquisition sequences are employed. The development of 3D real-time fetal pose estimation approaches on volumetric EPI fetal MRI opens up a promising avenue for fetal motion monitoring and prediction.

We report two cases of pulmonary hypoplasia due to fetal ascites in symptomatic congenital cytomegalovirus (CMV) infections despite fetal therapy. The patients died soon after birth. The pathogenesis of pulmonary hypoplasia in our cases might be thoracic

Celcomen: spatial causal disentanglement for single-cell and tissue perturbation modeling [PDF]
Celcomen leverages a mathematical causality framework to disentangle intra- and inter- cellular gene regulation programs in spatial transcriptomics and single-cell data through a generative graph neural network. It can learn gene-gene interactions, as well as generate post-perturbation counterfactual spatial transcriptomics, thereby offering access to ...

Efficient fetal-maternal ECG signal separation from two channel maternal abdominal ECG via diffusion-based channel selection [PDF]
There is a need for affordable, widely deployable maternal-fetal ECG monitors to improve maternal and fetal health during pregnancy and delivery. Based on the diffusion-based channel selection, here we present the mathematical formalism and clinical validation of an algorithm capable of accurate separation of maternal and fetal ECG from a two channel ...
