Practical X-ray Gastric Cancer Diagnostic Support Using Refined Stochastic Data Augmentation and Hard Boundary Box Training [PDF]
Endoscopy is widely used to diagnose gastric cancer and has a high diagnostic performance, but it must be performed by a physician, which limits the number of people who can be diagnosed. In contrast, gastric X-rays can be taken by radiographers, thus allowing a much larger number of patients to undergo imaging.

Wavelet Analysis in a Canine Model of Gastric Electrical Uncoupling [PDF]
Abnormal gastric motility function could be related to gastric electrical uncoupling, the lack of electrical, and respectively mechanical, synchronization in different regions of the stomach. Therefore, non-invasive detection of the onset of gastric electrical uncoupling can be important for diagnosing associated gastric motility disorders.

A Fully Resolved Multiphysics Model of Gastric Peristalsis and Bolus Emptying in the Upper Gastrointestinal Tract [PDF]
Over the past few decades, in silico modeling of organ systems has significantly furthered our understanding of their physiology and biomechanical function. In this work, we present a detailed numerical model of the upper gastrointestinal (GI) tract that not only accounts for the fiber architecture of the muscle walls, but also the multiphasic ...

Challenges in Multi-centric Generalization: Phase and Step Recognition in Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass Surgery [PDF]
Most studies on surgical activity recognition utilizing Artificial intelligence (AI) have focused mainly on recognizing one type of activity from small and mono-centric surgical video datasets. It remains speculative whether those models would generalize to other centers.
