Adaptive Learning Expert System for Diagnosis and Management of Viral Hepatitis [PDF]

International journal of artificial intelligence and applications, 2019, Volume 10, Number 2, 2019
Viral hepatitis is the regularly found health problem throughout the world among other easily transmitted diseases, such as tuberculosis, human immune virus, malaria and so on. Among all hepatitis viruses, the uppermost numbers of deaths are result from the long-lasting hepatitis C infection or long-lasting hepatitis B. In order to develop this system,

Deep Learning-based Assessment of Hepatic Steatosis on chest CT [PDF]

arXiv, 2022
Purpose: Automatic methods are required for the early detection of hepatic steatosis to avoid progression to cirrhosis and cancer. Here, we developed a fully automated deep learning pipeline to quantify hepatic steatosis on non-contrast enhanced chest computed tomography (CT) scans.

In vivo endoscopic autofluorescence microspectro-imaging of bronchi and alveoli [PDF]

Dans Endoscopic Microscopy III, (Guillermo J. Tearney and Thomas D. Wang - Editors) - In vivo endoscopic autofluorescence microspectro-imaging of bronchi and alveoli, San Jose : \'Etats-Unis d'Am\'erique (2008), 2008
Fibered confocal fluorescence microscopy (FCFM) is a new technique that can be used during a bronchoscopy to analyze the nature of the human bronchial and alveolar mucosa fluorescence microstructure. An endoscopic fibered confocal fluorescence microscopy system with spectroscopic analysis capability was developed allowing real-time, simultaneous images

Fast-Growing Alveolar Echinococcosis Following Lung Transplantation

Pathogens, 2020
Alveolar echinococcosis is a rare but life-threatening infection caused by the parasite Echinococcus multilocularis. Its natural history is characterized by a slow parasitic growth over several years.

Confirmed Autochthonous Case of Human Alveolar Echinococcosis, Italy, 2023

Emerging Infectious Diseases
In September 2023, a patient in Italy who had never traveled abroad was referred for testing for suspected hepatic cystic echinococcosis. Lesions were incompatible with cystic echinococcosis; instead, autochthonous alveolar echinococcosis was confirmed.

Disseminated Alveolar Echinococcosis.

Albanian Journal of Trauma and Emergency Surgery, 2021
Alveolar echinococcosis (AE) is caused by the larval form of the tapeworm Echinococcus multilocularis. In humans, E. alveolaris metacestode cells proliferate in the liver inducing a hepatic disorder that mimics liver cancer and can spread to other organs.

Disseminated alveolar echinococcosis resembling metastatic malignancy: a case report

Journal of Medical Case Reports, 2017
Background Alveolar echinococcosis is a potentially lethal zoonosis caused by larval forms of the tapeworm Echinococcus multilocularis. Humans are aberrant intermediate hosts who become infected by ingestion of egg-contaminated food or water or via ...
