Regional medical inter-institutional cooperation in medical provider network constructed using patient claims data from Japan [PDF]

PLoS ONE 17, 8 (2022) e0266211, 2022
The aging world population requires a sustainable and high-quality healthcare system. To examine the efficiency of medical cooperation, medical provider and physician networks were constructed using patient claims data. Previous studies have shown that these networks contain information on medical cooperation.

Model and Integrate Medical Resource Availability into Verifiably Correct Executable Medical Guidelines - Technical Report [PDF]

IEEE/ACM 36th International Conference on Computer-Aided Design (ICCAD), 2017, 2018
Improving effectiveness and safety of patient care is an ultimate objective for medical cyber-physical systems. A recent study shows that the patients' death rate can be reduced by computerizing medical guidelines. Most existing medical guideline models are validated and/or verified based on the assumption that all necessary medical resources needed ...

Model and Integrate Medical Resource Available Times and Relationships in Verifiably Correct Executable Medical Best Practice Guideline Models (Extended Version) [PDF]

ACM/IEEE 9th International Conference on Cyber-Physical Systems (ICCPS), 2018, 2018
Improving patient care safety is an ultimate objective for medical cyber-physical systems. A recent study shows that the patients' death rate is significantly reduced by computerizing medical best practice guidelines. Recent data also show that some morbidity and mortality in emergency care are directly caused by delayed or interrupted treatment due to

Application of quantum computing to a linear non-Gaussian acyclic model for novel medical knowledge discovery [PDF]

PLoS ONE 18(4): e0283933. 2023, 2021
Recently, with the digitalization of medicine, the utilization of real-world medical data collected from clinical sites has been attracting attention. In this study, quantum computing was applied to a linear non-Gaussian acyclic model to discover causal relationships from real-world medical data alone.

Accelerators for Medical Applications - Radio Frequency Powering [PDF]

CERN Yellow Report CERN-2017-004-SP pp. 119-150, 2018
This paper reviews the main types of radio-frequency powering systems which may be used for medical applications. It gives the essentials on vacuum tubes, including tetrodes, klystrons, and inductive output tubes, and the essentials on transistors. The basics of combining systems, splitting systems, and transmission lines are discussed.

On Medical Device Software CE Compliance and Conformity Assessment [PDF]

arXiv, 2021
Manufacturing of medical devices is strictly controlled by authorities, and manufacturers must conform to the regulatory requirements of the region in which a medical device is being marketed for use. In general, these requirements make no difference between the physical device, embedded software running inside a physical device, or software that ...

Medical Image Fusion: A survey of the state of the art [PDF]

, 2013
Medical image fusion is the process of registering and combining multiple images from single or multiple imaging modalities to improve the imaging quality and reduce randomness and redundancy in order to increase the clinical applicability of medical images for diagnosis and assessment of medical problems.

Medical Selfies: Emotional Impacts and Practical Challenges [PDF]

In 22nd International Conference on Human-Computer Interaction with Mobile Devices and Services (MobileHCI 2020), October 5-8, 2020, Oldenburg, Germany. ACM, New York, NY, USA, 20 pages, 2020
Medical images taken with mobile phones by patients, i.e. medical selfies, allow screening, monitoring and diagnosis of skin lesions. While mobile teledermatology can provide good diagnostic accuracy for skin tumours, there is little research about emotional and physical aspects when taking medical selfies of body parts.

Online learning for X-ray, CT or MRI [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
Medical imaging plays an important role in the medical sector in identifying diseases. X-ray, computed tomography (CT) scans, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are a few examples of medical imaging. Most of the time, these imaging techniques are utilized to examine and diagnose diseases. Medical professionals identify the problem after analyzing the
