Minithoracoscopy for Pleural Effusions [PDF]

open access: yesCanadian Respiratory Journal, 1998
The current management of pleural disease often requires direct visualization and biopsy of the pleural space using thoracoscopy. A diagnostic and therapeutic approach to pleural disease is described that uses a new 2 mm rigid thorascope. The technique allows complete visualization, biopsy and drainage of the pleural space with rapid recovery and ...

DeScarGAN: Disease-Specific Anomaly Detection with Weak Supervision [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
Anomaly detection and localization in medical images is a challenging task, especially when the anomaly exhibits a change of existing structures, e.g., brain atrophy or changes in the pleural space due to pleural effusions. In this work, we present a weakly supervised and detail-preserving method that is able to detect structural changes of existing ...

A Proactive Agent Collaborative Framework for Zero‐Shot Multimodal Medical Reasoning

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This work proposes a multimodal medical collaborative reasoning framework, which imitates clinician's working patterns of comparative analysis. The framework includes a cohort of domain‐expert models, and an large language model learner agent to generate inquiries and interact with these experts to gather the essential information, and integrate the ...

Malignant pleural mesothelioma with resolution of pleural effusion

open access: yesRespirology Case Reports, 2023
Key message In malignant pleural mesothelioma patients, pleural effusion may improve during the course of the disease. Pleural effusion with nodular shadows bordering the pleura should be followed up even if the pleural effusion improves.

Cost‐effectiveness of indwelling pleural catheter compared with talc in malignant pleural effusion

open access: yesRespirology (Carlton South. Print), 2017
Malignant pleural effusion is associated with morbidity and mortality. A randomized controlled trial previously compared clinical outcomes and resource use with indwelling pleural catheter (IPC) and talc pleurodesis in this population.

Estimate of genetic variants using CNV‐Seq for fetuses with oligohydramnios or polyhydramnios

open access: yesMolecular Genetics &Genomic Medicine, Volume 11, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023
The overall detection rate of clinically significant findings was 8%, with 5.0% in the isolated group and 11.0% in non‐isolated group. Non‐isolated group especially oligohydramnios subgroup is inclined to obtained more pathogenicity genetic anomalies and to terminate their pregnancy outcome.
