Recent Advancements in Lung Cancer Metastasis Prevention Based on Nanostrategies

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Metastasis is the leading cause of death in patients with lung cancer. Nanomedicine can be used to prepare efficient drug delivery systems owing to their advantages and plays an important role in the synergistic antimetastasis of lung cancer. This comprehensive review summarizes the emerging nanostrategies against lung cancer metastasis based on the ...

Automatic Segmentation, Localization, and Identification of Vertebrae in 3D CT Images Using Cascaded Convolutional Neural Networks [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
This paper presents a method for automatic segmentation, localization, and identification of vertebrae in arbitrary 3D CT images. Many previous works do not perform the three tasks simultaneously even though requiring a priori knowledge of which part of the anatomy is visible in the 3D CT images.

Iterative fully convolutional neural networks for automatic vertebra segmentation and identification [PDF]

open access: yesMedical Image Analysis 53, pp. 142-155, 2019, 2018
Precise segmentation and anatomical identification of the vertebrae provides the basis for automatic analysis of the spine, such as detection of vertebral compression fractures or other abnormalities. Most dedicated spine CT and MR scans as well as scans of the chest, abdomen or neck cover only part of the spine.

Intraoperative Fast Adaptive Focus Tracking Robotic OCT Enables Real‐Time Tumor Grading and Large‐Area Microvascular Imaging in Human Spinal Cord Surgery

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The fast adaptive focus tracking robotic optical coherence tomography (FACT‐ROCT) offers real‐time, high‐resolution imaging of spinal cord tumors during surgery. By reducing motion artifacts with robotics and adaptive focal tracking, it accurately differentiates tumor grades using a novel attenuation coefficient marker and reveals critical ...

Fused Thoracic Vertebrae in Birds

open access: yesJournal of the Yamashina Institute for Ornithology, 1982
The notarium, a group of fused thoracic vertebrae, is characteristic of birds of five orders and is found in one or more families of five more orders of non-passerine birds. Sixteen patterns of variation in the number of vertebrae in the notarium and of unfused vertebrae between it and the synsacrum were found.
