Perfusion assessment via local remote photoplethysmography (rPPG) [PDF]
This paper presents an approach to assess the perfusion of visible human tissue from RGB video files. We propose metrics derived from remote photoplethysmography (rPPG) signals to detect whether a tissue is adequately supplied with blood. The perfusion analysis is done in three different scales, offering a flexible approach for different applications ...

Perfusion imaging in deep prostate cancer detection from mp-MRI: can we take advantage of it? [PDF]
To our knowledge, all deep computer-aided detection and diagnosis (CAD) systems for prostate cancer (PCa) detection consider bi-parametric magnetic resonance imaging (bp-MRI) only, including T2w and ADC sequences while excluding the 4D perfusion sequence,which is however part of standard clinical protocols for this diagnostic task.

Liver Segmentation in Time-resolved C-arm CT Volumes Reconstructed from Dynamic Perfusion Scans using Time Separation Technique [PDF]
Perfusion imaging is a valuable tool for diagnosing and treatment planning for liver tumours. The time separation technique (TST) has been successfully used for modelling C-arm cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) perfusion data. The reconstruction can be accompanied by the segmentation of the liver - for better visualisation and for generating ...

Liver Segmentation using Turbolift Learning for CT and Cone-beam C-arm Perfusion Imaging [PDF]
Model-based reconstruction employing the time separation technique (TST) was found to improve dynamic perfusion imaging of the liver using C-arm cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). To apply TST using prior knowledge extracted from CT perfusion data, the liver should be accurately segmented from the CT scans. Reconstructions of primary and model-based

The Current Role and Future Applications of Machine Perfusion in Liver Transplantation
The relative paucity of donor livers suitable for transplantation has sparked innovations to preserve and recondition organs to expand the pool of transplantable organs.

48 h Normothermic Machine Perfusion With Urine Recirculation for Discarded Human Kidney Grafts
Normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) has reshaped organ preservation in recent years. In this preclinical study, prolonged normothermic perfusions of discarded human kidney grafts were performed in order to investigate perfusion dynamics and identify ...

Towards Optimizing Sub-Normothermic Machine Perfusion in Fasciocutaneous Flaps: A Large Animal Study
Machine perfusion has developed rapidly since its first use in solid organ transplantation. Likewise, reconstructive surgery has kept pace, and ex vivo perfusion appears as a new trend in vascularized composite allotransplants preservation. In autologous
