Usefulness of endocytoscopy in evaluating transbronchial biopsy specimens
Endocytoscopy is an imaging method that provides the nuclei of lesions in real‐time. We assessed the endocytoscopy for the diagnosis of transbronchial biopsy specimens during bronchoscopy, and endocytoscopy imaging may be useful for the two‐class diagnosis of malignant or non‐malignant transbronchial biopsy specimens. Abstract Background Endocytoscopy (

Searching for Pneumothorax in X-Ray Images Using Autoencoded Deep Features [PDF]
Fast diagnosis and treatment of pneumothorax, a collapsed or dropped lung, is crucial to avoid fatalities. Pneumothorax is typically detected on a chest X-ray image through visual inspection by experienced radiologists. However, the detection rate is quite low.

A systematic review of ICD complications in randomised controlled trials versus registries: is our 'real-world' data an underestimation? [PDF]
Implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) implantation carries a significant risk of complications, however published estimates appear inconsistent. We aimed to present a contemporary systematic review using meta-analysis methods of ICD complications ...

ABSTRACT Anatomy instruction is enhanced when students are engaged and interested in course material, and the relevance of the subject matter to their academic success and professional careers is emphasized. We developed a learning activity for a pre‐clinical anatomy course using the clinical skills of inspection and palpation of a cadaver donor to ...

The increased survival of patients after a first operation has caused increases in the incidence of locoregional recurrence or second primary lung cancer and a concomitant increase in the number of patients who require secondary surgery. Ipsilateral secondary operation is also commonly practiced, albeit with enhanced difficulty.

Searching for Pneumothorax in Half a Million Chest X-Ray Images [PDF]
Pneumothorax, a collapsed or dropped lung, is a fatal condition typically detected on a chest X-ray by an experienced radiologist. Due to shortage of such experts, automated detection systems based on deep neural networks have been developed. Nevertheless, applying such systems in practice remains a challenge.
