Deep Transformers for Fast Small Intestine Grounding in Capsule Endoscope Video [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Capsule endoscopy is an evolutional technique for examining and diagnosing intractable gastrointestinal diseases. Because of the huge amount of data, analyzing capsule endoscope videos is very time-consuming and labor-intensive for gastrointestinal medicalists.

Visualizing intestines for diagnostic assistance of ileus based on intestinal region segmentation from 3D CT images [PDF]
SPIE Medical Imaging 2020, 11314-109, 2020 This paper presents a visualization method of intestine (the small and large intestines) regions and their stenosed parts caused by ileus from CT volumes. Since it is difficult for non-expert clinicians to find stenosed parts, the intestine and its stenosed parts should be visualized intuitively.

Asian Journal of Surgery, 2012 Meckel diverticulum is the most common congenital anomaly of the small intestine, occurring in about 2%–4% of the population. Meckel diverticulum results from incomplete closure of the omphalomesenteric duct.

High fidelity blood flow in a patient-specific arteriovenous fistula [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 An arteriovenous fistula, created by artificially connecting segments of a patient's vasculature, is the preferred way to gain access to the bloodstream for kidney dialysis. The increasing power and availability of supercomputing infrastructure means that it is becoming more realistic to use simulations to help identify the best type and location of a ...

Fluid-structure interaction modelling and stabilisation of a patient-specific arteriovenous access fistula [PDF]
, 2017 A patient-specific fluid-structure interaction (FSI) model of a phase-contrast magnetic resonance angiography (PC-MRA) imaged arteriovenous fistula is presented. The numerical model is developed and simulated using a commercial multiphysics simulation package where a semi-implicit FSI coupling scheme combines a finite volume method blood flow model and

Kasabach-Merritt syndrome arising from an Enteroatmospheric Fistula [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Kasabach-Merritt syndrome (KMS) is a rare, life-threatening condition that is characterized by profound thrombocytopenia, hypofibrinogenemia, elevated partial thromboplastin time, and may also be associated with microangiopathic hemolytic anemia. It is well established that this phenomenon is notably associated with the vascular tumors kaposiform ...

Mathematical Modeling of Transport and Degradation of Feedstuffs in the Small Intestine [PDF]
Journal of Theoretical Biology 294 (2012) 114-121, 2011 We describe a mathematical modeling of the digestion in the small intestine. The main interest of our work is to consider, at the same time, different aspects of the digestion i.e. the transport of the bolus all along the intestine, feedstuffs degradation according to the enzymes and local physical conditions, and nutrients absorption.

Microbiomic signatures of anal fistula and putative sources of microbes
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection MicrobiologyAnal fistula is a common perianal disease that typically develops from an abscess caused by in-flammation in the area. It has long been believed that intestinal microbes play a significant role in its development, considering its close relation to the ...
