CT Synthesis with Conditional Diffusion Models for Abdominal Lymph Node Segmentation [PDF]
Despite the significant success achieved by deep learning methods in medical image segmentation, researchers still struggle in the computer-aided diagnosis of abdominal lymph nodes due to the complex abdominal environment, small and indistinguishable lesions, and limited annotated data.

A Fully-Automated Pipeline for Detection and Segmentation of Liver Lesions and Pathological Lymph Nodes [PDF]
We propose a fully-automated method for accurate and robust detection and segmentation of potentially cancerous lesions found in the liver and in lymph nodes. The process is performed in three steps, including organ detection, lesion detection and lesion segmentation.

SDF-Net: A Hybrid Detection Network for Mediastinal Lymph Node Detection on Contrast CT Images [PDF]
Accurate lymph node detection and quantification are crucial for cancer diagnosis and staging on contrast-enhanced CT images, as they impact treatment planning and prognosis. However, detecting lymph nodes in the mediastinal area poses challenges due to their low contrast, irregular shapes and dispersed distribution.

Automatic breast cancer grading in lymph nodes using a deep neural network [PDF]
The progression of breast cancer can be quantified in lymph node whole-slide images (WSIs). We describe a novel method for effectively performing classification of whole-slide images and patient level breast cancer grading. Our method utilises a deep neural network.

Cluster-Based Learning from Weakly Labeled Bags in Digital Pathology [PDF]
To alleviate the burden of gathering detailed expert annotations when training deep neural networks, we propose a weakly supervised learning approach to recognize metastases in microscopic images of breast lymph nodes. We describe an alternative training loss which clusters weakly labeled bags in latent space to inform relevance of patch-instances ...

Enfermedad de Kawasaki: a propósito de un caso atípico y con intususcepción
We present a rare association of atypical Kawasaki disease and intussusception in a three month old male patient. It all began with high fever and an obstructive intestinal syndrome developed in the second day of hospitalization, diagnosed as a colo ...

Risk factors and an early predictive model for Kawasaki disease shock syndrome in Chinese children
Background Kawasaki disease shock syndrome (KDSS), though rare, has increased risk for cardiovascular complications. Early diagnosis is crucial to improve the prognosis of KDSS patients. Our study aimed to identify risk factors and construct a predictive

Meply: A Large-scale Dataset and Baseline Evaluations for Metastatic Perirectal Lymph Node Detection and Segmentation [PDF]
Accurate segmentation of metastatic lymph nodes in rectal cancer is crucial for the staging and treatment of rectal cancer. However, existing segmentation approaches face challenges due to the absence of pixel-level annotated datasets tailored for lymph nodes around the rectum.
