Ovaidan Ultrasound Image Enhancement By Pseudocolouring. [PDF]

, 2004
Image processing may be employed on ovarian ultrasound images to assist doctors in diagnostic analysis. The gray levels of ovarian images are usually concentrated at the zero end of the spectrum ,making the image too low in contrast and too dark for the ...

ICOS‐ImmunoPET Monitors T Cell Activation After Combination Immune Checkpoint Blockade in a Mouse Model of Melanoma Brain Metastasis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ICOS‐immunoPET noninvasively visualizes activated T cells in melanoma brain metastases following combined anti‐PD‐1/anti‐CTLA‐4 therapy. Clinical translation of this imaging approach may improve patient stratification and treatment monitoring and serve as a quantitative imaging endpoint to support immunotherapy development and clinical trials in brain ...

Matrix Stiffness Enhances Odontogenic Differentiation of DPSCs through Membrane Curvature Protein Baiap2‐Modulated Exosome Release

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Matrix stiffness softening is identified as a previously underappreciated feature in deep caries. Higher stiffness drives exosome release in dental pulp stem cells through a coordinated mechanism involving PI3K–AKT‐regulated Baiap2 and kinesin‐1, thereby promoting odontogenic differentiation.

In Situ Programmable Modulation of Hydrogel Stiffness for Stage‐Adaptive Bone Regeneration

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Near‐infrared (NIR) irradiation triggers Ca2+ release from thermoresponsive nanocarriers, enabling in situ stiffening of an adaptive hydrogel from a soft to a stiff state, thereby sequentially supporting mesenchymal stromal cell stemness and osteogenic differentiation for stage‐adaptive bone regeneration.

Phantom-based analysis of variations in automatic exposure control across three mammography systems: implications for radiation dose and image quality in mammography, DBT, and CEM

European Radiology Experimental
Background Automatic exposure control (AEC) plays a crucial role in mammography by determining the exposure conditions needed to achieve specific image quality based on the absorption characteristics of compressed breasts.

Further Evidences for the Sulfur Spillover on Carbon: Thermodynamic Aspects and Effects on Li‐S Solid‐State Batteries

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates sulfur spillover, the spontaneous and rapid spread of sulfur over carbon surfaces at ambient temperature. The process is studied by small‐angle X‐ray scattering (SAXS), X‐ray radiography, and microcalorimetry from which a number of physicochemical properties are derived.

Multi-scale morphological image enhancement of chest radiographs by a hybrid scheme

Journal of Medical Signals & Sensors, 2015
Chest radiography is a common diagnostic imaging test, which contains an enormous amount of information about a patient. However, its interpretation is highly challenging. The accuracy of the diagnostic process is greatly influenced by image processing algorithms; hence enhancement of the images is indispensable in order to improve visibility of the ...
