Anatomically aware dual-hop learning for pulmonary embolism detection in CT pulmonary angiograms [PDF]
Pulmonary Embolisms (PE) represent a leading cause of cardiovascular death. While medical imaging, through computed tomographic pulmonary angiography (CTPA), represents the gold standard for PE diagnosis, it is still susceptible to misdiagnosis or significant diagnosis delays, which may be fatal for critical cases.

Primary extranodal diffuse large B‐cell lymphoma: Molecular features, treatment, and prognosis
One‐third of DLBCL arises from extranodal organs and is challenging to manage. Molecular features are critical to elucidate the differences in clinical features, predict the disease prognosis, and improve effective targeted therapeutic strategies. Abstract Diffuse large B‐cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common subtype of non‐Hodgkin's lymphoma and ...

Iterative Motion Compensation reconstruction ultra-short TE(iMoCo UTE) for high resolution free breathing pulmonary MRI [PDF]
Purpose, To develop a high scanning efficiency, motion corrected imaging strategy for free-breathing pulmonary MRI by combining a motion compensation reconstruction with a UTE acquisition, called iMoCo UTE. Methods, An optimized golden angle ordering radial UTE sequence was used to continuously acquire data for 5 minutes.

Brain Damage and Motor Cortex Impairment in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease: Implication of Nonrapid Eye Movement Sleep Desaturation [PDF]
Nonrapid eye movement (NREM) sleep desaturation may cause neuronal damage due to the withdrawal of cerebrovascular reactivity. The current study (1) assessed the prevalence of NREM sleep desaturation in nonhypoxemic patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and (2) compared a biological marker of cerebral lesion and neuromuscular ...

Hierarchical Classification of Pulmonary Lesions: A Large-Scale Radio-Pathomics Study [PDF]
Diagnosis of pulmonary lesions from computed tomography (CT) is important but challenging for clinical decision making in lung cancer related diseases. Deep learning has achieved great success in computer aided diagnosis (CADx) area for lung cancer, whereas it suffers from label ambiguity due to the difficulty in the radiological diagnosis.
