Superior vena cava syndrome: endovascular management
Background The objective of management of superior vena cava syndrome (SVCS) is to promptly alleviate the uncomfortable symptoms. Conventional approaches do not always achieve results as rapidly as endovascular management with stent placement ...

Knowledge transfer for surgical activity prediction [PDF]
Lack of training data hinders automatic recognition and prediction of surgical activities necessary for situation-aware operating rooms. We propose using knowledge transfer to compensate for data deficit and improve prediction. We used two approaches to extract and transfer surgical process knowledge.

Time‐Controlled Dual Targeting to Program Systemic and Intercellular Transfer of Therapeutic Effects
Aspirin‐liposomes loaded onto monocytes enable inflammation‐triggered targeting and efficient hand‐over of aspirin to inflamed cells. Monocytes uptake a significant portion of aspirin‐liposomes, prolonging therapeutic action. This approach enhances anti‐inflammatory effects through intercellular transfer, demonstrating a translational strategy for ...

Automating Catheterization Labs with Real-Time Perception [PDF]
For decades, three-dimensional C-arm Cone-Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) imaging system has been a critical component for complex vascular and nonvascular interventional procedures. While it can significantly improve multiplanar soft tissue imaging and provide pre-treatment target lesion roadmapping and guidance, the traditional workflow can be ...

Mesenchymal stem cell‐derived nanoghosts (MSC‐NGs) mimic naturally secreted extracellular vesicles (MSC‐EVs) in structure and physicochemical properties but can be synthesized at more translatable yields. As osteogenic agents, MSC‐NGs demonstrate superior outcomes compared to MSC‐EVs.

A Multiscale-Multiphysics Framework for Modeling Organ-scale Liver Regrowth [PDF]
We present a framework for modeling liver regrowth on the organ scale that is based on three components: (1) a multiscale perfusion model that combines synthetic vascular tree generation with a multi-compartment homogenized flow model, including a homogenization procedure to obtain effective parameters; (2) a poroelastic finite growth model that acts ...
