Intra-video Positive Pairs in Self-Supervised Learning for Ultrasound [PDF]
Self-supervised learning (SSL) is one strategy for addressing the paucity of labelled data in medical imaging by learning representations from unlabelled images. Contrastive and non-contrastive SSL methods produce learned representations that are similar for pairs of related images.

Point of Care Ultrasound Used to Diagnose Nontyphoidal Endocarditis
Point of care ultrasound (POCUS) can make an expedited diagnosis, which might lead to early correct management. POCUS should be used in a systemic and integrated approach to evaluate multiple organs in patients with sepsis and septic shock. We present a

Echo-E$^3$Net: Efficient Endo-Epi Spatio-Temporal Network for Ejection Fraction Estimation [PDF]
Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is a critical metric for assessing cardiac function, widely used in diagnosing heart failure and guiding clinical decisions. Despite its importance, conventional LVEF estimation remains time-consuming and operator-dependent.

Journal Quality Factors from ChatGPT: More meaningful than Impact Factors? [PDF]
Purpose: Journal Impact Factors and other citation-based indicators are widely used and abused to help select journals to publish in or to estimate the value of a published article. Nevertheless, citation rates primarily reflect scholarly impact rather than other quality dimensions, including societal impact, originality, and rigour.
