Indian Kidney Exchange Program: A Game Theoretic Perspective [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 We propose a way in which Kidney exchange can be feasibly, economically and efficiently implemented in Indian medical space, named as Indian Kidney Exchange Program(IKEP) along with Indian specific influence on compatibility and final outcomes.

Parameterized Algorithms for Kidney Exchange [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 In kidney exchange programs, multiple patient-donor pairs each of whom are otherwise incompatible, exchange their donors to receive compatible kidneys. The Kidney Exchange problem is typically modelled as a directed graph where every vertex is either an altruistic donor or a pair of patient and donor; directed edges are added from a donor to its ...

CANet: Channel Extending and Axial Attention Catching Network for Multi-structure Kidney Segmentation [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Renal cancer is one of the most prevalent cancers worldwide. Clinical signs of kidney cancer include hematuria and low back discomfort, which are quite distressing to the patient. Some surgery-based renal cancer treatments like laparoscopic partial nephrectomy relys on the 3D kidney parsing on computed tomography angiography (CTA) images.

Schwannoma of the Kidney [PDF]
Modern Pathology, 2008 Schwannomas of the kidney are rare, with only a few reported cases. We report three additional cases with immunohistochemical analysis. All three tumors were from females (aged 27, 35, and 59 years) and ranged from 4.8 to 8 cm in diameter. All of the patients underwent nephrectomy.

South African Medical Journal, 2015 This article on drug nephrotoxicity is detailed, as it is important to be fully aware of renal side-effects of drugs with regard to prevention andearly diagnosis in order to manage the condition correctly. Many therapeutic agents are nephrotoxic, particularly when the serum half-life isprolonged and blood levels are raised because of decreased renal ...

3D Kidneys and Kidney Tumor Semantic Segmentation using Boundary-Aware Networks [PDF]
MICCAI Kidney Tumor Segmentation Challenge 2019, 2019 Automated segmentation of kidneys and kidney tumors is an important step in quantifying the tumor's morphometrical details to monitor the progression of the disease and accurately compare decisions regarding the kidney tumor treatment. Manual delineation techniques are often tedious, error-prone and require expert knowledge for creating unambiguous ...

End-to-End Cascaded U-Nets with a Localization Network for Kidney Tumor Segmentation [PDF]
, 2019 Kidney tumor segmentation emerges as a new frontier of computer vision in medical imaging. This is partly due to its challenging manual annotation and great medical impact. Within the scope of the Kidney Tumor Segmentation Challenge 2019, that is aiming at combined kidney and tumor segmentation, this work proposes a novel combination of 3D U-Nets ...

Acute kidney injury, mortality, length of stay, and costs in hospitalized patients.
Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, 2005 The marginal effects of acute kidney injury on in-hospital mortality, length of stay (LOS), and costs have not been well described. A consecutive sample of 19,982 adults who were admitted to an urban academic medical center, including 9210 who had two or

Prediction of Kidney Function from Biopsy Images Using Convolutional Neural Networks [PDF]
arXiv, 2017 A Convolutional Neural Network was used to predict kidney function in patients with chronic kidney disease from high-resolution digital pathology scans of their kidney biopsies. Kidney biopsies were taken from participants of the NEPTUNE study, a longitudinal cohort study whose goal is to set up infrastructure for observing the evolution of 3 forms of ...
