A multivariate Bayesian learning approach for improved detection of doping in athletes using urinary steroid profiles [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Biomarker analysis of athletes' urinary steroid profiles is crucial for the success of anti-doping efforts. Current statistical analysis methods generate personalised limits for each athlete based on univariate modelling of longitudinal biomarker values from the urinary steroid profile.

Exploit fully automatic low-level segmented PET data for training high-level deep learning algorithms for the corresponding CT data [PDF]
PLoS ONE 14(3): e0212550 (2019), 2019 We present an approach for fully automatic urinary bladder segmentation in CT images with artificial neural networks in this study. Automatic medical image analysis has become an invaluable tool in the different treatment stages of diseases. Especially medical image segmentation plays a vital role, since segmentation is often the initial step in an ...

A Clinical and Finite Elements Study of Stress Urinary Incontinence in Women Using Fluid-Structure Interactions [PDF]
, 2017 Stress Urinary Incontinence (SUI) or urine leakage from urethra occurs due to an increase in abdominal pressure resulting from stress like a cough or jumping height. SUI is more frequent among post-menopausal women. In the absence of bladder contraction, vesical pressure exceeds from urethral pressure leading to urine leakage. Despite a large number of

CathSim: An Open-source Simulator for Endovascular Intervention [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Autonomous robots in endovascular operations have the potential to navigate circulatory systems safely and reliably while decreasing the susceptibility to human errors. However, there are numerous challenges involved with the process of training such robots, such as long training duration and safety issues arising from the interaction between the ...

′Egg shell′ in bladder: A calculus around neglected Foley balloon catheter
Indian Journal of Urology, 2010 Suprapubic catheterization of the bladder is used as a short- or long-term alternative to urethral catheterization. As with any indwelling urinary catheter, proper care is vitally important to minimize complications.

Estimation of urinary stone composition by automated processing of CT images [PDF]
Urological Research (2009) epub ahead of print, 2009 The objective of this article was developing an automated tool for routine clinical practice to estimate urinary stone composition from CT images based on the density of all constituent voxels. A total of 118 stones for which the composition had been determined by infrared spectroscopy were placed in a helical CT scanner.
