HEDI: First-Time Clinical Application and Results of a Biomechanical Evaluation and Visualisation Tool for Incisional Hernia Repair [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Abdominal wall defects often lead to pain, discomfort, and recurrence of incisional hernias, resulting in significant morbidity and repeated surgical repairs worldwide. Mesh repair for large hernias is usually based on the defect area with a fixed overlap, neglecting biomechanical factors such as muscle activation, intra-abdominal pressure, tissue ...

Tethered capsule en face optical coherence tomography for imaging Barrett's esophagus in unsedated patients [PDF]
BMJ Open Gastroenterology (2020), 2020 Detection of Barrett's esophagus (BE) at points of care outside the endoscopy suite may improve screening access and reduce esophageal adenocarcinoma mortality. Tethered capsule optical coherence tomography (OCT) can volumetrically image esophageal mucosa and detect BE in unsedated patients.

Automated Identification of Thoracic Pathology from Chest Radiographs with Enhanced Training Pipeline [PDF]
Proc. SPIE 10950, Medical Imaging 2019: Computer-Aided Diagnosis,
vol. 10950, p. 109503F, (2019), 2020 Chest x-rays are the most common radiology studies for diagnosing lung and heart disease. Hence, a system for automated pre-reporting of pathologic findings on chest x-rays would greatly enhance radiologists' productivity. To this end, we investigate a deep-learning framework with novel training schemes for classification of different thoracic ...
