Abstract Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is a crucial procedure for diagnosing and managing conditions affecting the pancreas and biliary tract. The procedure can be technically challenging and carries risks of complications, with post‐ERCP pancreatitis (PEP) being the most common.

ABSTRACT Vicarious excretion is a nonrenal pathway of excretion for intravenously injected iodinated contrast media, with a limited understanding of its influencing factors and imaging features. In this prospective pilot study, gallbladder opacification (GBO) and small intestinal luminal opacification (SILO) were assessed to identify vicarious ...

Abstract Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)‐guided pancreatic duct drainage includes two procedures: EUS‐guided drainage/anastomosis (EUS‐D/A) and trans‐papillary drainage with EUS‐assisted pancreatic rendezvous. EUS‐guided pancreatogastrostomy is the most common EUS‐D/A procedure and is recommended as a salvage procedure in cases in which endoscopic ...

DeformIrisNet: An Identity-Preserving Model of Iris Texture Deformation [PDF]
Nonlinear iris texture deformations due to pupil size variations are one of the main factors responsible for within-class variance of genuine comparison scores in iris recognition. In dominant approaches to iris recognition, the size of a ring-shaped iris region is linearly scaled to a canonical rectangle, used further in encoding and matching. However,

Anatomy-Aware Measurement of Segmentation Accuracy [PDF]
Quantifying the accuracy of segmentation and manual delineation of organs, tissue types and tumors in medical images is a necessary measurement that suffers from multiple problems. One major shortcoming of all accuracy measures is that they neglect the anatomical significance or relevance of different zones within a given segment.
